Regardless of format or content area, a good objective tells students these three things:
- What are we learning?
- Why are we learning this?
- What does success look like?
Questions to consider/guide you when developing an objective using the CIM framework:
- What knowledge and skills are needed?
- Is it measurable, assessable, & DOABLE today?
- What prior, relevant knowledge is needed?
- Is it visible and shared in student-friendly words?
- Do students understand the objective/purpose & why?
