Valuable Tools
I believe that preparing instructional objectives in each domain of learning is a valuable tool. Because students learn on different levels, by preparing the instructional objectives in each domain and at various levels, this will allow students to grasp and retain the information being taught. For me, I did not know about this teaching concept. Basically, I found myself teaching at a higher level than the students are ready for. By preparing the instructional objectives in each domain and at various levels this will allow the student to build up their mastery of the material being presented. It will allow me the opportunity to see the students progression or if they are struggling in an area. The instructional objectives will help me know how write essential and closure questions that would be relavant. Not only will preparing instructional objectives help the students but will help me to assess how well the informations is being recieved from the students.
I agree with you Freda I had never heard of this, but by learning the proper way of useing these steps we will all be able to ensure our students will master the information we are giving them.
ReplyDeleteFreda, I agree with you 100%. Every student has a different way of learning and each student learns on different levels. If your objective is one-dimensional, you will loose the majority of the class.
