Learning Outcomes

This writing assignment provides you with a practical application for designing learning outcomes. Learning outcomes become the foundation from which instruction, activities, and assessments will be built. As a result, it is important that they are clear and measurable.

Perform the following tasks:

Step 1: Describe a lesson. Using the lesson you have started to develop in the previous two courses (EDU600 and EDU601) or another lesson of your choice in the event you have not taken the previous two courses, identify the following items:

The course title and description.

The name and brief description of the lesson.

Describe the goal of the lesson, what it is designed to teach and the focus of the learning activities.

Step 2: Develop Learning Objectives. For the lesson you have selected, develop three learning objectives using Bloom's Taxonomy and the ASU Objectives Builder to inform your work. Write one learning objective that reflects each of the following levels in Bloom's Taxonomy:

Knowledge

Application

Synthesis

Again, you should write one objective at the knowledge level, one at the application level, and one at the synthesis level. Here are a couple additional resources to guide you in created your objectives:

Indicators of strong learning outcomes: Checkpoint

Step 3: Review Bloom's Taxonomy and justify each learning outcome. Write one to two sentences that justify each learning outcome you specified in Step 2, based on why the learner must achieve that knowledge or skill. In addition, for each learning outcome, explain the level of Bloom's Taxonomy on which you intend to assess the learner.

Step 4: Develop three performance objectives. For the lesson you have selected, write one performance objective for each of the three learning outcomes you have written. Remember, the objectives should be concrete, clear, and measureable.
