8. Goal Analysis - Two Steps
2. Describe exactly what a students will be

• A tendency to make particular choices
12. Affective Skills - Attitudes
• Probably will not be achieved at the end of
the instruction
• Evaluation by “doing something”
13. Goal Analysis
• Decide if sub steps (sub goals) are necessary
– complexity of the task
– target audience
14. Goal Analysis conclusion
• Finally, formulate a test item that would show
that learners can perform the skill?
