well”. What were the conditions?
• Does everyone learn in the same way?
Brainstorm characteristics of a
good teacher.

Assessment
• Listing your learning outcomes is the
clearest way to communicate expectations
to students.
• The syllabus is a good place for them!
• Well-written learning outcomes inform all
on what is to be learned, and how
assessment will occur.
We know that students learn more
effectively and successfully when
they know what the end result of
their learning will be.

Writing an effective Learning Outcome
Learning Outcome should be learner (student) centred, not instructor centred.
Instructor Centred Outcome
Learner Centred Outcome
During this session the
instructor will introduce the
criteria used in determining
the strength of a support
system.
By the end of the session the
students will be able to apply
the criteria necessary to
determine the strength of the
support system presented.

Think of the mini lesson you will teach next time
and write a learning outcome.
Assess the learning outcome …
What will the learner do?
Which level of Bloom?
Is the activity observable?
Is the activity measurable?
Is the learning outcome derived from the concept map?
Write another leaning outcome:
One that applies to a particular day in a
course you might be TA’ing.
Assess your partner’s learning outcome …
What will the learner do?
Which level of Bloom?
Is the activity observable?
Is the activity measurable?
Is the learning outcome derived from the concept map?
Tips for Writing Objectives
Objectives should specify four main
things:
– Audience - Who? Who is this aimed at?
– Behavior - What? What do you expect them to
be able to do? Use action verbs to describe an
overt, observable behavior.
– Condition - How? Under what circumstances
will the learning occur?
– Degree - How much?
This is often called the ABCD's of
objectives.
Given the discussion on learning
outcomes, participants will be able to
write an objective applicable to their
course that includes the stated
criteria.
Audience - Green
Behavior - Red
Condition - Yellow
Degree - Blue

Most of the time students are involved only
passively in learning:
•in listening to the instructor,
•looking at the occasional overhead or slide,
•reading the text book.
Research shows that such
passive involvement generally
leads to a limited retention of
knowledge by students.
