This document discusses Caffarella's interactive model of program planning. It outlines the key steps and features of the model, including building support, prioritizing ideas, developing objectives, designing instruction, and evaluating plans. The document also discusses writing behavioral objectives and Bloom's taxonomy for cognitive levels. Adults as learners are mentioned as affecting program planning.

2. Agenda

3. Caffarella’s Interactive Model Interactive Model of Program Planning Building a Solid Base of support Identifying Program Ideas Sorting and Prioritizing Program Ideas Developing Program Objectives Designing Instructional Plans Devising Transfer of Learning Plans Formulating Evaluating Plans Making Recommendations and Communicating Results Preparing Budgets and Marketing Plans Coordinating Facilities and On-site Events Discerning the Context Selecting Formats, Schedules, and Staff Needs

4. What are the features of Caffarella’s model that make it unique and valuable for program planners?

5. Assumptions Inherent in the Interactive Model of Program Planning

6. What do we know about adults as learners and how does that affect program planning?

7. Adults as learners: What are the implications?

8. Five Critical Issues in Program Planning

9. Writing Behavioral Objectives “ An objective is a written statement, defining in precise terms, what the learner will be able to do at the end of training and how well .” Robert Mager

10. Traditionally, behavioral objectives address three things: The desired behavior The conditions under which the behavior is performed The performance standards that are to be met

11. Example for ADLT 606: At the end of this course (condition), learners will be able to design a program ( desired behavior) that uses all relevant elements of Caffarella’s interactive model of program planning and addresses Jane Vella’s seven steps of design (performance standard). The test for a well-written objective: Who will do what how well by when .

12. Analysis Evaluation Synthesis Application Comprehension Knowledge Bloom’s Taxonomy for Levels of Cognitive Processing
