I gained a lot of learning and information about writing instructional objectives when our professor discussed about instructional objectives. I learned that writing your course goals and objectives are very significant because these will provide a lucid direction of what is expected from the students. The instructional objectives must clear and concise in a way that it used unnecessary words or extra information. Your objectives should be specific. As what I have learned, instructional objectives must include an action verb that specifies a learning outcome. Verbs in objectives must be measurable and observable. A complete instructional objective includes an observable behavior, an action verb specifying the learning outcomes, special conditions under which the behavior must be shown, and the performance level considered sufficient to demonstrate mastery. I have learned the difference between goals and objectives. Goals are broad and generalize statement. It is not observable and not specific while objectives are observable and specified. An instructional objective describes any special conditions in which the learning will take place. An observable learning outcome may take place at a particular time, in a particular place and also an instructional objective indicates how well the behavior is to be performed. As we go further in our discussion about instructional objectives, I have learned the Bloom’s Taxonomy as source of instructional objectives specifically the cognitive domain. There are six categories under Bloom’s Taxonomy. First taxonomy is Knowledge, retrieving previously learned material. Second taxonomy is Comprehension, the ability to construct meaning from the material. Third taxonomy is Application, ability to put learning into a new setting or new situation. Fourth taxonomy is Analysis, ability to break down the parts of the material into its components. Fifth taxonomy is Synthesis, ability to put parts together to form a new one. And the last taxonomy is Evaluation, the ability to judge and even critique the value of a material. As a prospective educator, these instructional objectives will be important for me because these will help me to measure my students’comprehension and mastery. This will be my guide into better teaching strategy for evaluating and assessing my students.
