U made my prolonged confusion of learning objective and outcome clear very effectively. Thanq so muchh ma'am U r doing extraordinary job for the student teachers who are getting confused in these significant terms
The give examples of learning objectives had vague verbs like know, understand which cannot be measured. But the learning outcomes examples given were exactly the learning objectives with Action verb, followed by noun and context.
Can you please explain what can be the learning outcome for Educational Objective 1. Exhibit competence in Mathematical concepts and procedures. Learning outcome The students can ____________________________________ Learning outcome The students can ______________ 2. Exhibit proficiency in relating mathematics to other circular areas Learning outcome The students can _________________ Learning outcome The students can __________________
@@guerraericamesinan8846 The objective is to exhibit competence in Mathematical Concepts and Procedures. For writing SMART outcomes let’s assume that you are teaching them Fractions ( Grade 3/4) Some of the outcomes can be- Students will be able to 1) sort pictures according to the fractions illustrated in them. 2) discuss about the situations where they usually use fractions in daily life. 3) Create a short story where fractions are used at least 4 times. 4) solve numericals on addition of fractions on PHET Simulations All of the above learning outcomes consists of visible learning and you can easily identify whether your objective of displaying mathematical competency has been achieved.
@t This is a very good article on Bloom's taxonomy. It has 30 examples of how to craft learning objectives using this methodology and also contains 180 plus verbs related to Bloom's taxonomy.
Ok So i have a few observations.....the learning objectives in the example of this video had vague verbs. There is no way one can measure understand, learn and know. There is actually a very thin line between learning outcomes and learning objectives. Some research work also highlights that the two can be used interchangeably. If we put the same verbs in our objectives then outcomes would be redundant. A teacher can share a sort of a checklist that can be used by students to fill while the lesson is progressing. This can help students measure their own learning and will train them on reflection as well. The last objective of how to write and the characteristics of a learning outcome were not even discussed in detail.. so the video did not achieve the objectives shared at the start. Even the objectives shared at the start did not have verbs in them. The popular name for learning indicators is 'Product'. It is the work done by students or also referred to as evidence of learning. This evidence should also be aligned with the level of the objective.
I am so sorry for replying it late, I just saw your comment and believe me it fills me with immense happiness to read this. You have analysed the video so well. You are absolutely right - Learning objectives and outcomes can be used interchangeably and we can just use either of it. You are also right when you say there is no way that we can measure 'Know, learn and understand' and that is what I have also emphasised. The only difference is here I am taking Learning Objectives as broad aims of the lesson. If you go through Cambridge specifications it talks about Learning AIMS (these are broad) and Learning outcomes. Also, in some way I did tell about the characteristics of learning outcomes as that they should be specific, visible, measurable and should preferably belong to all levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. I value your inputs and it clearly gives an indication that you have your concepts very clear. may I know more about you.
Dear Ma'am Thank you so much for all the information provided. A humble request to share the link from where I can download the NCERT Book on Learning Outcomes. Ad I could only find the older version. Regards
Hello ma’am! I’m a new teacher and I was asked to make a ppt for my class which has learning outcomes in it. Now I’m confused cause I thought learning outcomes are only written in the lesson plan then why would I include them in a PPT for my students? Please help me understand what they actually want from me?
Dear Ayushi, learning outcomes should definitely be included in all the sessions that you conduct with your children. Not just written in the ppt but also explain it to the students well. It is extremely important that we share these learning outcomes and children are aware of what is going to take place, what do they expect from the session, what are they supposed to do. I hope this answers your query.
Hi Mam... plzzzzzzzzzzzzz ans must Can u plzz tell me that from where have u prepared this video... I mean i am just want to know that have u make this video in your own words or not...? Actually i want to add the content of your voice in my assignment as it is u have said in this video. is there any issue of plagiarism? agr ye video ap ne apny words me explain ki to it will b more more helpful for me bcz plagiarism ka koi issue nhi ho ga but agr ap ne kaheen se daikh kr explain ki ha then mery liye problem ho gi... plzzzzzzzzzz ans me
1)Students will be able to recognise the varna 2)will be able to sort objects based on varnas 3)Students will be able to write the different varnas in proper formation 4)Students will be able to create 2-3 letter words by combination of varna Sorry for replying late. Just checked it out.
Can you please explain what can be the learning outcome for Exhibit competence in Mathematical concepts and procedures. 2. Exhibit proficiency in relating mathematics to other circular areas
