Week 6 - learning objectives

Ok on this week's lecture agenda list


3 domains - Cognitive/Affective/Psychomotor

Cognitive - Aims to increase learner's knowledge. Makes them know more about certain topic eg. in the army we had to learn the various part of a rifle by and the mechanics behind it, the distance it can cover, the amount of bullets that can be loaded etc. etc.

Affective- Aims to change learner's attitudes.. forms include counseling delinquents to our familiar health education or 好公民 textbook or national education.

Psychomotor - Aims to build learner's physical skills. Again...the right way to hold a rifle, the breathing technique, how to leopard crawl with a rifle this are all psychomotor skills required for a soldier to be more proficient in combat.

Well....it noted that these domains often overlaps therefore it is important to design objectives from the 3 different domains... using the example of being a soldier again... a good soldier should have sufficient cognitive knowledge (fieldcrafts, weapon operation) and affective (patriotism, regimentation) and psychomotor skills (standard obstacle course, unarmed combat).

Goals setting!!---Fuzziessss

Simple! Goals should avoid using abstract terms like sense of pride/appreciate/favourable. Which are subjective to individuals. Instead goals should include terms that can see or heard when it is archieved. Eg. run 2.4km/ Pass IPPT.

To have precise objective we should use the ABCD format. Audience, behavior , condition and degree.

verbs able to demonstrate the sucessful achievement of objectives should be used. eg. are estimate, arrange , label and recall.

a good objectives is one that is specific in asking the A= Audience, to do something B= behaviour with something C= condition with certain proficiency D= degree eg. 95/100 marks.
