INTRODUCTION
It is every teacher’s worst nightmare to spend time planning out a unit only to �nd students having no idea of what is being taught, what the key
learning points are, or what is expected of them throughout the unit. There is a simple way to avoid this nightmare, and that is by having strong
learning objectives for your units. By setting these �rst, you set your students and yourself on the right track from the beginning. But what does a
learning objective include exactly? Is it the same thing as having an agenda? In this section we will be looking at the three components every
learning objective must include in order to be effective.

the objective.
