56
3 Important Characteristics of Behavioural Objectives
1. Performance: What the learner is expected to do that will evidence objectives have been achieved
2. Condition: Describes condition under which behaviour will occur
3. Criterion: Time frame + level of competence the learner will strive to achieve
57
ABCD Rule
4 Step Method of What to Include in Objectives
Audience (who)
Behaviour (what)
Condition (under what circumstances)
Degree (how much, to what extent)
58
Common Mistakes When Writing Objectives
1. focus on what instructor will do
2. including > 1 behaviour in a single objective
3. Forgetting to include the BCD characteristics (behaviour, condition, degree)
4. Using performance terms subject to many interpretation
5. unattainable/unrealistic
6. Objectives unrelated to stated goal
7. Cluttering with unnecessary information
8. Too general so outcome is not clear
9. Not altering/evaluating as you go
59
What is Bloom's Taxonomy of Objectives
A longstanding educational theory that identifies things that need to be able to happen at baseline levels before moving to higher levels of learning.
