This document discusses instructional objectives and communicating objectives to students. It covers three types of objectives: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Cognitive objectives aim to increase knowledge, affective objectives target attitude change, and psychomotor objectives build physical skills. The document emphasizes that objectives should be learner-centered, outcomes-driven, objective, and specify measurable behaviors. Objectives help teachers choose content and activities and make evaluation easier. They also guide students by clarifying learning goals and allowing self-assessment. Well-written objectives clearly state who will perform what behavior under what conditions to demonstrate mastery.
