                            (OBJECTIVE-RELATED PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING)
I. INTRODUCTION
     The material as well as the non-material resources in the teaching-learning process must be
well-managed in order to reap optimum learning. To ensure results, the management of these
resources must be grounded on time-tested principles.
     An objective is an intent communicated by a statement describing a proposed change in a
learner. Good teachers provide clear objectives for each lesson and works to meet those specific
objectives during each class. Clearly defined learning objectives guide the learner of what he is to be
like when he has successfully completed a learning experience. Communicating your objectives to
your students, helps them focus their thinking and motivates them to participate in class.
     Teachers are responsible for delivering lessons that are planned, organized, and implemented
based on the objectives that are specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-bound. But these
should be flexible enough to provide room for the learners to make their own personal and
independent connections from the classroom to real-life situations.
II. LEARNING OUTCOMES
       1. Explain the objective-related principles and their implications to teaching.
       2. Write SMART lesson objectives in the three domains.

          OBJECTIVE-RELATED PRINCIPLES OF TEACHING
IV.       LEARNING EXPERIENCE/S
Guiding Principles in Determining and Formulating Learning Objectives
1. "Begin with the end in mind," says Covey, the author of "Seven Habits of Effective People". In
   the context of teaching, this means that we must begin our lesson with a clearly defined lesson
   objective. With a clear and specific lesson objective we will have a sense of direction. With a
   definite lesson objective in mind, we do not lose sight of what we intend to teach. No amount of
   far-fetched question or comment from our students, no amount of unnecessary interruption or
   disruption can derail our intended lesson for the day. With a specific objective, our lesson
   becomes more focused. We do not waste nor kill time for we are sure of what to teach, how to
   teach, what materials to use.
2. Share lesson objective with students. Like a seminar that begins with a statement of purpose,
   our lesson ought to begin with a statement and clarification of our lesson objective. Make known
   to our students our instructional objective and encourage them to make the lesson objective their
   own. This lesson objective when shared and possessed by our students will become their personal
   target. It is against this personal target that they will evaluate themselves at the end of the lesson.
   When our students set their own personal targets, we are certain that they will become more self-
   motivated.
3. Lesson objectives must be in the two or three domains - knowledge (cognitive) skill,
   (psychomotor) and values (affective). Our lesson maybe dominantly cognitive, psychomotor or
   affective. Dominantly cognitive if it is meant primarily for knowledge acquisition and dominantly
       DEVELOPED BY: JESS M. ARCEO                                                                     2
  psychomotor if it is intended for the acquisition and honing of skills. Lesson objectives in the
  affective domain are mainly focused on attitude and value formation. A cognitive or a skill lesson
  must always include the affective dimension for wholistic learning. A lesson objective that dwells
  on trivia is hardly a motivating force. What if a student is able to identify the parts of a plant?
  What has that to do with him/her and his/her life? In other words, a lesson is worthwhile if it gets
  connected to everyday life, how the student is and ought to be concerned with it, what difference
  it makes for a fuller existence. We will find it very difficult sometimes to determine whether a
  lesson objective is in the cognitive or psychomotor domain. When you face the difficulty, don't let
  it bother you. If we come to think of it even a dominantly cognitive lesson includes teaching of
  skills, say for instance intellectual skills like reasoning and inferring. Likewise an intended lesson
  objective in the psychomotor domain such as 'to focus the microscope under low and high - power
  objectives in 30 seconds" includes the cognitive element of knowing the parts and functions of
  each part of the microscope and understanding the "do's" and the "don’ts" in focusing a
  microscope. Furthermore, a lesson objective geared towards the formation of desirable attitudes
  and habits has definitely a cognitive base. We may not succeed in effecting change in attitude and
  behavior in people (affective) without explaining what the desired attitudinal behavioral change is
  all about and why such change is desired (cognitive)
        Anyway, what is most important according to this principle is that our lesson is wholistic and
  complete because it dwells on knowledge and values or on skills and values or on knowledge,
  skills values. If we teach only knowledge, this is incomplete for this may in any way touch and
  bring about change in the learner. We may end up with more head knowledge that is measured in
  test then completely forgotten after the test. If we teach only skill unaccompanied by values, we
  may contribute to the formation of people who will have all the skills to oppress, to abuse and to
  take advantage of the unskilled and the unlearned. So it is necessary that our lesson gets direction
  from objectives in the two or three domains with the affective domain always present.
4. Work on significant and relevant lesson objectives.
   With our lesson objective becoming our students' lesson objective, too, our students will be self-
   propelled as we teach. The level of their self-motivation all the more increases when our lesson
   objective is relevant to their daily life, hence, significant.
5. Lesson objective must be aligned with the aims of education as embodied in the Philippine
   Constitution and other laws and on the vision-mission statements of the educational
   institution of which you are a part.
         The aims of education as enshrined in our fundamental law of the land, in the Education Act
   of 1982, the Ten-year Medium-Term Development Plan must be reflected in the vision-mission
   statements of educational institutions. In turn, the vision-mission statements of educational
   institutions must filter down to the course objectives stated in course syllabi and in lesson
   objectives laid down in lesson plans.
       This means that the aims and goals of education as provided for in our laws filter down to
  our lesson objectives. We have something to do with the attainment of our broad aims of
  education. We can contribute very much to the realization of our school's vision and mission
  statements because our lesson objectives are based on our school's vision and mission statements.
  Imagine what happens when our lesson objectives are not in any way related to the goals of
  education and to the vision-mission statements of the educational institutions where we work.
6. Aim at the development of critical and creative thinking. This is said more than done. We need
   not go into a laborious research to be convinced that the development of critical and creative
   thinking is wanting in classrooms. Most questions asked whether         oral or written are
   convergent, low-level questions. With teachers quite used to awarding and praising
   pupils/students giving the right answers and sometimes branding the pupil or student who asks
   questions "pilosopo", the classroom atmosphere that prevails is not        ripe     for     the
   development of critical and creative thinking. If we want to contribute to the development of
   citizens who are critical and creative thinkers, the type of citizens needed to make democracy,
    DEVELOPED BY: JESS M. ARCEO                                                                      3
  then we should include in our scope of questions high-level, divergent, or open-ended questions. It
  must be good likewise not to frown on students who question a lot - all for the development of
  critical and creative thinking. Our teaching strategies and techniques must be such that they serve
  as catalyst in the development of higher-order-thinking skills (HOTS) and creative thinking skills.
      For this reason, the whole brain must be used for balanced learning not just the left for critical
  thinking but also the right for creative thinking.
7. For accountability of learning, lesson objectives must be SMART, i.e. Specific, Measurable,
   Attainable, Result-Oriented/Relevant, Time-bound and Terminal.
        When our lesson objective is SMART it is quite easy to find out at the end of our lesson if we
  attained our objective or not. It will also be easier on our part to formulate a test that is valid to
  measure the attainment of our lesson objective. Moreover, our lesson becomes more focused for
  we have a concrete picture of the behavior that our students should be able to demonstrate if we
  realized our lesson objective.
      In short, SMART objectives increase our accountability for the learning of our students. With
               SMART objectives, we depart from the unsound practice of teaching that is so spread
  out that in the end we find ourselves unclear on what test we are going to give to assess -learning.
  With SMART lesson objectives, there is greater match between instruction and assessment. There
  is curriculum alignment.
 INSTRUCTIONAL LEARNING PROCESS
      As you prepare yourself in the teaching profession in the near future, you will be
       conscious of starting from the perspective of what the learners are expected to manifest
       after a certain period of study. In so doing, you will be vigilant enough in integrating the
       very fundamental legal basis of education in the Philippines that are emphasized in Article
       XIV of the 1987 Philippine Constitution. Some of the following points stipulated in our
       constitution are indicated herein so it can steer you in aligning them to the lesson
       objectives you may be formulating.
           o The right of all citizens to quality education at all levels
           o Provision for complete, adequate and integrated system of education
           o Inclusion of the study of Constitution in the curriculum
           o Education to put emphasis on the inculcation of nationalism and patriotism as well
               as other values deemed important in developing better person and responsible
               citizen
           o Enjoyment of academic freedom (teachers, students, institutions) in all institutions
               of higher learning
           o Filipino as the national language; Filipino and English as official languages for use
               in communication and instruction
           o Promotion of Science and Technology
           o Preservation and enrichment of Filipino culture
           o Promotion of physical education and other related programs
 GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
           Learning outcomes were previously called goals and objectives. They are made up of
     particular knowledge, skill or behavior that every learner is expected to demonstrate after
     completion of the instruction provided by the teacher.
           The table below illustrates the differences between goals, and objectives.

   On Objective Specifications
         Teachers usually categorize learning into three main groups or domains. They may be often
   considered in seclusion but in practice, learning may occur together in all three. These are the
   cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains. It means that when we teach, we should not only
   focus on the enrichment of knowledge (cognitive) but also to teach the learner to act on what he
   knows (psychomotor) and use it properly to benefit self and his neighbor (affective).
 Domains                           The Nature of the Learner                      The Goal of Life
 Cognitive is for the              HEAD to nurture the       Mind in order to            Know
 Affective is for the              HEART to nurture the      Spirit in order to          Love

learner to achieve his/her true human potential.

 Meet the three types of learners:
                                                      It is not enough that a school produces
                                                      graduates    with    excellent   academic
                                                      standing, who later assumes prominent

                                                      It is also not good to pass/promote a
                                                      learner because he is kind, nice, or behaves
                                                      well in your class. He should also learn the
                                                      fundamental knowledge necessary for daily

                                                      As teachers, it is our mission to mold each

                                                      holistic teaching to produce holistic
                                                      learners, a "thinking and feeling being."
     Sequence Objectives
      Having a taxonomy as a conceptual framework for identifying the multiple ways in which
learning can be significant, can help teachers decide which of the various levels of learning they want
to support and promote in a given course or learning experience (Fink 2012). The most popular is
Bloom's Taxonomy (1956) revised more recently by Anderson and others (2001).
      Sequencing of objectives are categorized according to different levels of learning that you want
the learners to achieve. That is, whether you want the students to remember factual information,
distinguish among the concepts, apply rules/principles, or do problem solving these expectations
should be expressed as different types of objectives (Dwyer, 1991).
                                Figure 4.1: Dwyer's Hierarchy of Learning
            Dwyer's figure tells us that in order for the students to learn concepts, they should
      have a basic supporting knowledge, e.g.: facts. In order to problem-solve, students need
      to understand concepts and rules, etc. This clearly tells us that the Lower Order Thinking
      Skills (LOTS) will serve as a baseline foundation in order for the learners to perform the
      Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS).

    BLOOM'S REVISED TAXONOMY
        Lorin Anderson, a former student of Bloom, and David Krathwohl revisited the cognitive
    domain in the mid-nineties and made some changes, with the three most prominent ones being:
       • changing the names in the six categories from noun to verb forms
       • rearranging them
       • creating a matrix of processes and levels of knowledge (Anderson, Krathwohl)
          Within each domain, there are several levels you may wish to specify in your objective
    writing. This will depend upon the extent of detail that Is required in the curriculum and what you
    know about the learning style and readiness of the students (Bannister, 2002).

         Effective instruction develops the learners holistically. By considering the above
   mentioned three domains, cognitive, affective and psychomotor, a learner is not wanting
   under your instruction.
        Knowledge of what the objectives are and its mechanics will not suffice. Principles
  must govern the particular knowledge (cognitive), skills or behavior (psychomotor and
  affective) behavior being formulated. Thus the different principles in designing learning
  objectives are provided here for you.
 DEVELOPED BY: JESS M. ARCEO                                                                  10
                               Principles in Designing Learning Objectives
                           Objectives must be congruent with the nation's educational policies and
      PRINCIPLE 1          standards.
                           Objectives should unlock the mental (cognitive), physical (psychomotor),
      PRINCIPLE 2          and spiritual (affective) reserves of every learner to liberate his true human
                           potential.
      PRINCIPLE 3              Objectives must be sequenced according to the different levels of learning
                               that you want the learners to achieve.
       PRINCIPLE 4             Learning objectives must be S.M.A.R.T: i.e. Specific, Measurable,
                               Attainable, Relevant/Realistic, and Time Bound
       PRINCIPLE 5
                               Learners should know the objectives of the lesson to help them focus their
                               thinking and motivate participation.
   STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE IN WRITING LEARNING OBJECTIVES
         There is a preferred order when writing objectives. The condition or STEM is usually
   placed first, followed by the behavior or VERB, and the criteria or actual product, process,
   or outcome. Objectives are written in the future tense.
STEP 1: Write the STEM.
  Stem Examples:
Institutional Objective          A (name of school) graduate is expected to be
Program Objectives               When you successfully complete BSEd/BEEd, you will be able to…
Course Objectives
                                 At the end of the term, you will be able to....
                                 When you successfully finish the subject/course you will be able to
Classroom Objectives
                                 For Grade School
                                 At the end of 45 minutes, Grade I-A pupils should be able to
                                  For High School
                                  At the end of 1.5 hours, Grade 7-A students should be able to
                                For conditions describing relevant factors associated with the desired
                                performance:
                                1. After attending a lecture, student teachers should be able to…
                                2. Following review of a demonstration, student teachers should be able
                                   to…
                                3. Given a case study, intern therapists should be able to…
                                4. After completing the assignment, pupils/students should be able to…
                                5. Given a specific instrument, third year BSEd major in science students
                                   should be able to…
Notice that the stem includes the:
 DEVELOPED BY: JESS M. ARCEO                                                                           11
                    Time Frame
                    Grade Level of the Learners
Time Frame - Teachers should make good use of allotted academic instructional time. This is
necessary to determine the scope of the lesson to be covered within a given period and is vital for
the observance of good time management.
Grade Level of the Learners will help the teacher formulate objectives with respect to the level
of knowledge of a particular group of students. This will ensure that the students/pupils will learn
topics and skills appropriate to their developmental/cognitive stages.
   STEP 2: After you construct the stem, affix a VERB: (Be Specific - use only one action
   verb)
        Nonfunctional Verbs. These key words should be avoided when writing specific
   objectives:
      appreciate               become aware         comprehend          develop      familiarize
      know                     perceive             realize             recognize    understand
        These are vague infinitives/verbs. To prove that somebody knows something, or has
  understood, realized, perceived or become aware, he needs to show a behavior (i.e. explain, cite,
  describe, enumerate...etc.). Objective statements using these verbs are called "General
  Objectives" like the Institutional Goals and Program Goals.
    STEP 3: Once you have a STEM and a VERB, determine
          •a learning statement that specifies what learning will be demonstrated in the
           performance;
        • a broad statement of the criterion or standard for acceptable performance.
    For example:
                                                                                Criterion
    Action Word             LEARNING STATEMENT
                                                                          (the conditions of the
   (performance)                    (the learning)
                                                                      performance demonstration)
  Label                        the external parts of the human body           using the human torso model.
  Write                        critically about literature, using textual    with proper citation.

V. ASSESSMENT
                                   My Own Taxonomy of Thinking Words
            Achieving cognitive, psychomotor, and affective learning outcomes is not too difficult if
         you are particular of what you want your learners to achieve. In this activity, you are
         challenged to create your own taxonomy of learning.
            You are now familiar with the cognitive, psychomotor and affective learning outcomes. In
         particular, you have gone over in this text what capacities, skills and values you have to
         develop in the learners. From all of these, develop your own taxonomy of thinking and
         learning. Choose a particular subject that is relevant to your specialization. You can take off
         from this as you consider what is the most essential for your students to learn in the particular
         subject that you choose (1 Cognitive, 1 Affective, and 1 Psychomotor Objective).
