A ROAD MAP: LEARNING OUTCOMES— BEHAVIORAL OBJECTIVES

Behavioral objectives specify what it is the student can actually do when the entire process is completed.

Learning Outcomes slice

Direct Instruction, our chosen teaching method, already provides lists of outcomes in each subject area at each level as part of its program. These are then sequenced to provide the most efficient learning.

The most common fault of behavioral objectives or learning outcomes is their failure to include an easily measured result. Clearly measurable outcomes show progress, indicate problems and provide accountability. When observable measures are absent, inferred, or unclear, objectives usually become a disregarded laundry list of goals for which no one is responsible.
