This is really interested -- can you tell me where you were taught this method from? Many people wrongly attribute it to Heinich et al., but they were not the originators. As far as I am aware, the earliest use of ABCD for learning objectives was in Paulson's work, but if anyone knows of an earlier occurrence, I am dying to hear about it!
Fairly good presentation, my only problem is that at 8:59 the improved instructional objective highlighted B (Performance) as being "type at least 60 words per minute" however at 9:27 B is just "type" and the "at least 60 words per minute" has now been placed in the D(Degree). That is the part that confuses me, why was this done?
Great Talk! Thanks for sharing! I was moving around in life cluelessly and all of them very pissed off with me! my colleague introduced me to this "justgoals" mobile app which helped me to set short/mid/long term goals. now, i have a purpose and i am moving focused in my life. I am like a magnetic force to people around me!
