Objectives

Assignment #8 – Worth 45 points
Identify whichof the following objectives include all four elements necessary for a completeobjective; review those objectives that do not include all the elements andrewrite them to include all four elements. Think of it as WHO will learn WHATby WHEN. The Outcome is what is expected to happen. The CONDITION is how thatwill occur. The CRITERION is can it be measured. and the POPULATION is who islearning.
There isusually confusion on what Criterion is. For instance, if an objective statesthat “After a lesson on condoms, the 90% Senior students will be able tolist the steps for using a condom correctly.” is an objective. Think aboutit. Is that measurable? Yes, the students are taught the lesson and then haveto list the steps. This is a simple objective but all the elements are there.The Criterion is to list the steps on how to use a condom, the condition wasthe lesson, outcome is how many will pass, and the population are seniors.
Moreinformation on the four elements can be found in your textbook. I have providedan example to help you get started.
