The document also discusses course rationale, possible teaching methods, the role of course design, and defining entry and exit level descriptors to establish the starting and ending proficiency levels. Overall, the document provides guidance on planning all aspects of a course to ensure coherent and consistent teaching and learning objectives.
The document discusses goals and objectives for language curriculum design. It defines goals as general statements about what students should be able to do after completing a program, while objectives are more specific statements about the knowledge, behaviors, and skills students will have by the end of a course or program. The document provides examples of goals and objectives using different frameworks, emphasizes that objectives should directly support achieving goals, and recommends integrating Bloom's Taxonomy when formulating goals and objectives to ensure they address different learning domains.
This document discusses objectives in curriculum design and their use in language teaching. It presents different types of objectives, such as performance objectives that specify what learners can do after instruction. Both advantages and criticisms of using objectives are provided. Process objectives describe classroom activities, while product objectives describe skills learners will have. Needs analysis is discussed as a way to gather information on learners and tasks to inform syllabus design. Both subjective data on learners' preferences and objective data on their language use contexts are important to consider when developing goals based on identified needs.
In this class we take a look at the process of designing goals and objectives for language courses. We also explore some of the alternatives to objectives such as competencies and standards

This document provides an overview of different types of syllabi for English language education, including product-oriented, process-oriented, procedural, task-based, and negotiated syllabi. It discusses the characteristics of a good syllabus and explains key aspects of different syllabus types, such as how grammatical/structural and functional/notional syllabi are product-oriented and focus on language forms and functions. Process-oriented syllabi shift the focus from content to the learning process. Procedural syllabi emphasize logically arranged classroom activities. Task-based syllabi clearly state language tasks, while negotiated syllabi are developed through teacher-student negotiations.
This chapter discusses determining goals and learning outcomes in curriculum planning. Curriculum planners draw on understanding learner and societal needs as well as their own beliefs about education. There are two main educational philosophies: social/economic efficiency which emphasizes practical needs and rational planning; and learner-centeredness which stresses individual needs, experience, critical thinking and learner development. Goals are general changes sought while objectives are more specific and measurable changes resulting from breaking goals down. Objectives should be precise, feasible and focused to provide useful guidelines.
Do it yourself an approach in esp course designFathia Samet
This document outlines an ESP course and discusses course design and materials selection. It begins by defining ESP and outlining common problems ESP teachers face, such as lack of training and outdated materials. It then discusses how to become a do-it-yourself course designer, including analyzing learning needs, setting objectives, and selecting/developing appropriate materials. Examples of adapted printed materials and activities are provided. The document concludes by emphasizing that a do-it-yourself approach allows teachers to personalize content and continue developing skills in materials design.
TBL involves learners comprehending, manipulating, producing, or interacting with language to complete tasks like listing, ordering, comparing, problem solving, and creative activities. It follows a framework of introducing the topic/task, completing the task cycle of planning and reporting, and focusing on language. Key principles are tasks have clear outcomes, negotiation between teacher and students, the teacher recasts student language, students receive feedback, and more authentic interaction. Advantages are motivation and interest, a communicative approach, and student-needed language; disadvantages are limited form learning and requiring teacher creativity and potential grouping issues.
This document outlines a four-point focus for effective classroom management and instruction. It emphasizes that teachers should have clear expectations for students, provide opportunities for student response, and communicate respect. Teachers should also have detailed lesson plans centered around essential questions and be able to explain core concepts simply. When instructing, teachers should model thinking, ask varied levels of questions, give feedback, and use stories to aid memory. Finally, teachers should know learning targets, use formative assessment, involve students in the assessment process, and track each student's progress.
Objectives are statements which describe what the learner is expected to achieve as a result of instruction.
A course objective specifies a behavior, skill, or action that a learner can demonstrate if they have achieved mastery of the objective.
Objectives need to be written in such a way that they are measurable by some sort of assessment.
Course objectives form the foundation of the class.
This document discusses the difference between goals and objectives in language education. Goals are general statements about desirable program aims based on learner needs, while objectives are more specific statements of the knowledge, behaviors, and skills students will acquire. Objectives have a hierarchical relationship to goals and describe how the goals will be achieved. The document provides examples of properly formulated goals and objectives, noting that objectives should specify a performance, conditions, and criteria. The process of setting goals and objectives involves gathering learner needs information, defining goals, and breaking goals down into measurable objectives.
The document discusses key concepts in curriculum planning such as determining goals and outcomes of a language program. It explains that early language teaching simply aimed to teach English, while ESP argued for determining the specific English required, proficiency level, and purpose. Needs and situation analyses seek to answer these questions. Goals should motivate learners and clarify the program. Objectives provide a more precise focus than aims and describe observable learning outcomes. The document also examines five curriculum ideologies that influence language teaching approaches and stresses defining aims and objectives clearly and ensuring they are consistent, precise, related to aims, and feasible within the program.
This document discusses different approaches to course design for teaching English for specific purposes. It describes language-centered course design, which directly connects the analysis of the target language situation to course content. It also covers skills-centered design, which focuses on the underlying skills and strategies used by learners. Additionally, it discusses learning-centered design, which views learning as determined by learners' use of prior knowledge to make sense of new information.
This document discusses course planning and design, including developing a course rationale, describing entry and exit levels, choosing course content, sequencing content, and preparing a scope and sequence plan. It emphasizes that a good course rationale should answer who the course is for, what it is about, and what kind of teaching and learning will occur. Content is chosen based on learner needs and proficiency levels. Content is then sequenced considering factors like simple to complex, chronology, prerequisite learning, and spiral sequencing.
The document discusses various teaching strategies including drill work, review, assignment, and inductive and deductive methods. Drill work involves revising lessons through repetition and practice. Review involves recalling past lessons to strengthen understanding. Assignment refers to supplemental self-study to complement classroom lessons. Inductive teaching moves from specific examples to general principles, while deductive teaching moves from broad concepts to specific applications. Both methods have benefits like developing understanding, but inductive is better for beginners while deductive is more efficient.
This document discusses different approaches to course design for English for Specific Purposes (ESP) courses. It describes a language-centered approach, which focuses on analyzing the target language needs but does not fully consider the learner. It then outlines a skills-centered approach that aims to identify the underlying competencies needed rather than just the surface language. Finally, it proposes a learner-centered approach, which sees learning as a negotiation between the learner, society, and environment and involves the learner in all stages of the design process.
The document outlines the process a teacher took to design a content-based ESOL curriculum for her students. She started by attending conferences, talking to other teachers, and researching existing models but found nothing that fully met her students' needs. She focused on determining goals that addressed bridging students' current abilities with what they needed, while considering teaching styles and constraints. This included establishing the purpose, communication needs, goals, resources, materials, and evaluation of the pilot program. The teacher worked to sort and focus the goals to best represent the teaching objectives and student needs, considering the relationships between language, content, and strategies. She defined learning objectives that reflected awareness, knowledge, and skills across these three components by the end of the
The document discusses course planning and syllabus design. It covers developing a course rationale, describing entry and exit levels, choosing course content, sequencing content, and planning the syllabus. A course rationale answers questions about who the course is for, what it covers, and what teaching and learning will occur. It guides planning and provides focus. Entry and exit levels describe student proficiency before and after a course. Course content choices are based on objectives and needs. The document also reviews the Philippines' previous and current basic education curriculums.
This document discusses course planning and syllabus design. It begins by explaining course rationale, which describes the reasons for a course and the intended teaching/learning. Key aspects of course rationale include who the course is for, what it covers, and how learning will occur. Determining scope and sequence is also important - scope refers to breadth/depth of content coverage, while sequence considers ordering content from simple to complex. The document then discusses selecting a syllabus framework, such as situational, topical, or task-based. Developing instructional blocks like modules or units is also covered. The planning process concludes by preparing a scope and sequence plan listing modules/units and their time requirements.
This document discusses three main approaches to ESP (English for Specific Purposes) course design: language-centered, skills-centered, and learning-centered. The language-centered approach aims to directly connect target situation analysis to course content but fails to consider learners. The skills-centered approach focuses on developing reading abilities based on theoretical and pragmatic hypotheses but may not achieve goals. The learning-centered approach sees learning as determined by learners and influenced by their knowledge and motivation; it negotiates between target needs and learning situations at every stage.
Objectives help teachers clarify what students should learn and evaluate if teaching was effective. There are four steps to creating objectives: 1) decide learning outcomes, 2) break outcomes into specific objectives, 3) determine assessments, 4) plan lessons. Objectives are specific, short-term goals for learning within a time frame. Standards are broader long-term goals. Objectives have four components: content outlining the subject, behavior stating what students will do, conditions providing context, and criteria establishing performance levels. Well-written objectives guide teaching and assessment.
The document discusses goals and objectives in educational planning. It defines goals as general intended outcomes of a course while objectives are more specific descriptions of purposes that contribute to achieving the goals. Goals provide guidelines and direction for a course while objectives break goals down into teachable units. Objectives should be consistent with goals, describe observable learning outcomes, and be precise and feasible. The document provides several examples of goals and objectives for English language courses in different contexts like business English, hotel management, and tourism.

OBE is an educational theory that bases each part of an educational system around goals (outcomes). By the end of the educational experience each student should have achieved the goal. There is no specified style of teaching or assessment in OBE; instead classes, opportunities, and assessments should all help students achieve the specified outcomes.
This document discusses assessing curriculum and outlines the intended, implemented, and achieved curriculum. It defines each:
- Intended curriculum refers to objectives set at the beginning and establishes goals and purposes to be accomplished.
- Implemented curriculum refers to learning activities used to achieve objectives. It assesses if activities align with objectives and use appropriate methods.
- Achieved curriculum refers to outcomes based on intended and implemented curriculum. It assesses performance against objectives.
The document emphasizes assessing each type independently and comparing them to ensure objectives are met through proper implementation and achievement of learning outcomes.
This document discusses outcomes-based education (OBE) and its application in English second language (ESL) classrooms in South Africa. It begins by outlining the problem statement and research questions regarding the implementation of the communicative approach in Grade 8 ESL classrooms. It then describes the qualitative research methods used, including classroom observations and educator interviews across five schools. Key points covered include defining OBE principles like clarity of outcomes and designing instruction backwards from goals. The document also examines characteristics of OBE curricula and assessment, different delivery approaches, and references challenges in applying OBE in multilingual ESL contexts.
Outcome-based education (OBE) is an educational model that focuses on defining explicit learning outcomes that students should display by the end of educational experiences or programs. OBE involves designing curriculum backwards from clear definitions of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that learners should ideally possess. The key stages in developing an OBE model include establishing institutional outcomes, developing program outcomes aligned with institutional goals, and creating course learning outcomes linked to program outcomes. OBE emphasizes designing curriculum that is needs-driven, outcomes-focused, and learner-centered to ensure students can demonstrate achievement of defined learning objectives.
Tyler's model of curriculum development involves 4 basic steps: 1) Establishing the educational purpose, 2) Determining educational experiences to achieve the purpose, 3) Organizing those experiences effectively, and 4) Evaluating if the purposes have been met. The document outlines Tyler's view that establishing clear instructional objectives is important for developing a coherent curriculum, selecting appropriate teaching methods and materials, and assessing learning outcomes. Objectives should be specific, measurable, and focused on student outcomes rather than teaching processes.
Effective instruction requires clear goals and measurable objectives to focus learning. Having goals and objectives helps instructors design appropriate instruction and assessments, and informs students of expectations. While there are different approaches to writing goals and objectives, they generally involve stating what learners will know and be able to do using active verbs. Goals are broader statements of outcomes while objectives specify expected student performance. Developing goals and objectives depends on the instructional context and purpose.
The document discusses instructional management and formulating learning objectives. It provides several principles for determining and formulating objectives, including beginning with the end in mind, making objectives specific and measurable, and aligning objectives with educational aims. It also discusses classifying objectives according to domains like cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Assessment should be designed to evaluate if students have achieved the stated objectives. Overall, the document provides guidance on stating clear and measurable learning objectives to guide effective teaching.
The document discusses curriculum assessment and establishing goals and objectives. It defines the intended, implemented, and achieved curriculum. The intended curriculum refers to initial objectives, the implemented refers to student learning activities, and the achieved refers to outcomes based on the first two. It also lists six purposes of curriculum assessment, including highlighting expectations and providing feedback. Criteria for assessment and writing goals/objectives are discussed, including ensuring syntactic correctness, compliance with legal requirements, addressing knowledge and behavior, and passing various tests.
Tyler's model of curriculum development by SHAN MAHMOOD, WAQAR TIPU & ISHRAT ...shan mahmood
Tyler's model of curriculum development involves 4 basic steps: 1) establishing the purpose of education, 2) determining what experiences will achieve that purpose, 3) organizing those experiences effectively, and 4) assessing when the purposes have been met. The first step involves identifying decision-makers and determining societal and student needs to outline broad goals and specific, measurable objectives. The second step is selecting teaching methods and grouping related objectives into courses. The third step is organizing experiences from simple to complex and general to specific. The final step involves follow-up studies, interviews, and reviews to evaluate if the objectives and purposes have been achieved.
This document discusses criteria for curriculum assessment. It defines criteria as standards used to assess different elements of the curriculum. Criteria determine competency levels and are used to formulate goals and objectives, which indicate what students will learn. Goals and objectives are formulated to focus instruction, meet standards, provide the best education, monitor progress, and motivate students and teachers. Effective goals and objectives include specific content, behaviors, performance levels, and learning conditions. The document also discusses approaches to instruction and criteria for evaluating instruction methods. Overall, it provides guidelines for developing and assessing curriculum using defined criteria.
Here are the key events in the stanza:
- The soldier is introduced as a 'simple soldier boy'
- He grinned at life in empty joy, suggesting he found happiness even though it was superficial
- He slept soundly through the lonesome dark
- He whistled early with the lark
This shows he was keeping cheerful despite the difficult conditions, finding simple pleasures like whistling.
Q: How does this analysis help your understanding of the poem?
A:
Marking against the learning objective
provides formative feedback.
LO: To understand how Sassoon shows the depression of the soldier in ‘Suicide in the Trenches’.
The document discusses the key differences between competency, learning objectives, and learning outcomes. Competency refers broadly to the knowledge, skills, abilities and behaviors applicable to a specific profession, while learning objectives are more specific goals for a particular lesson or unit. Learning outcomes encompass the overall goals of a full course or program. Learning objectives provide shorter-term targets to guide teaching and assessment, while competencies and learning outcomes have a broader scope and longer timeframe. Objectives should be SMART - specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound.

Identifying learning outcomes and objectives
Identifying learning outcomes and objectives is crucial for educational design and instructional planning. Outcomes provide a holistic perspective, while objectives are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound targets. These align with curriculum, strategies, and assessment methods, ensuring purposeful, measurable, and transformative learning experiences. This empowers educators and learners.

2. Identifying Learning Outcomes
3. Setting Objectives
4. Alignment with Goals
II. Determine the Desired End Results
Identifying learning outcomes and objectives is a crucial step in the instructional design process, as it helps determine the desired end results of a learning experience. Learning outcomes are statements that describe what learners should know, understand, or be able to do after completing a learning activity, while objectives are specific, measurable, and achievable milestones that contribute to achieving those outcomes. Here's how identifying learning outcomes and objectives helps determine the desired end results:
1. Clarifies Purpose
2. Guides Instructional Design
3. Measurable Criteria
4. Aligns Assessment
5. Informs Evaluation
6. Motivates Learners
7. Facilitates Communication
8. Adaptable to Learner Needs
9. Continuous Improvement
II. Use Action Verbs
Identifying learning outcomes and objectives is a critical step in instructional design and education planning. Learning outcomes articulate what students should know or be able to do after completing a course or learning experience, while objectives break down these outcomes into specific, measurable, and achievable tasks. Action verbs play a crucial role in crafting clear and effective learning objectives. Let's explore the relationship between identifying learning outcomes and objectives through the use of action verbs.
1. Clarity and Precision
2. Measurability
3. Behavioral Focus
4. Alignment with Bloom's Taxonomy
5. Instructional Guidance:
Curriculum assessment involves collecting information to evaluate curriculum goals, student learning, and instruction. There are three types of curriculum: intended, implemented, and achieved. The intended curriculum refers to initial objectives, the implemented curriculum involves teaching methods and activities, and the achieved curriculum assesses student learning outcomes. Effective curriculum assessment uses multiple strategies to evaluate student performance against clear criteria and curriculum goals throughout the learning process.
Competency-Based Language learning for EFL.pptxwddiraq
This document discusses competency-based language teaching (CBLT), an outcomes-based approach to language education. CBLT focuses on what learners can do with the language rather than how they learned it. It breaks language learning down into specific, measurable competencies. Advocates believe this approach individualizes learning, clearly defines expectations, and ensures students master competencies through continuous assessment. The document outlines eight key features of CBLT programs and reviews the theoretical perspective on language that CBLT is based on.

It also describes the five phases of formal curriculum development as 1) defining learning outcomes, 2) selecting learning experiences, 3) choosing relevant content, 4) developing assessments, and 5) evaluating effectiveness. The five phases provide a systematic approach to curriculum design.
This document provides information on unit and lesson planning for teaching English as a foreign language or English as a second language. It discusses writing good learning objectives, sequencing activities, developing thematic units, and includes the following key points: unit plans provide an overview of the content and outcomes for a topic, while lesson plans are step-by-step guides for individual lessons. Effective objectives should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound. Developing dynamic units involves identifying standards, choosing meaningful topics, and allowing learner choice. Daily lesson logs are used by experienced teachers and include objectives, content, resources, procedures, remarks and reflections.

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptxKavitha Krishnan
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
3. In deriving goals from perceived needs, four
points should be remembered:
1. Goals are general statements of the
program’s purposes
2. Goals should usually focus on what the
program hopes to accomplish in the future,
and particularly on what the students
should be able to do when they leave the
program.
3. Goals can serve as one basis for
developing more precise and observable
objectives.
4. Goals should never be viewed as
permanent, that is they should never
become set in cement.
4. OBJECTIVES
Objectives defined as specific
statements that describe the
particular knowledge, behaviours,
and/ or skills that the learner will
be expected to know or perform at
the end of a course or programme.
It means that objectives is
something that one’s efforts or
actions are intended to attain or
accomplish
5. GOALS
Goals is a general statements
concerning desirable and attainable
programme purposes and aims based
on perceived language and situation
needs.
It means that goal the purpose toward
which an endeavour is directed.
6. FROM GOALS TOWARD
OBJECTIVES
The process of converting
perceptions of students needs into
goals and objectives provides the
basic units that can in turn be used
to define and organize all teaching
activities into a cogent curriculum.
7. GETTING INSTRUCTIONAL
OBJECTIVES ON PAPER
Sources Idea for Objectives
This include other programmes and their
curriculums, the books, and journals that constitute the
language teaching literature and educational taxonomies
that were worked out as far back as the 1950’s.
1. Other language programmes
2. The literature
3. Taxonomies
8. Sound Instructional Objectives
Having broken down the perceptions of the
students needs into goals and potential objectives and
having organize them on the basis of all available
information, the next step for planners is to state them
as clear and ambiguous instructional objectives.
1. Subject
2. Performance
3. Condition
4. Measure
5. criterion
9. PROS AND CONS CURRICULUM
OBJECTIVES
Battle lines or quickly drawn
The main complains that arise
with regard to objectives are:
1. Objectives are associative with
behavioural phycology
2. Some things cannot be quantify
3. Objectives revitalize teaching
4. Objectives limit the teachers
freedom
5. Language learning simply cannot
be express in objectives
10. Objectives do not bite
The teachers next door who uses objectives is
at least attempting to define what she hopes to teach
the students to do.
Examples of Goals and Objective
Gangzhou English Centre Zhongshan University
It notes that this information seems to be
addressed to the students revealed this objectives
reflected what we wanted the students to be able to do
at the end of the course and therefore we show no
reason to keep them secret. The objectives were
distributed and explained on the first day of class so
that students would know where the teachers thought
the students ought to be habit in the course.
11. English Language Institute University of
Hawaii at Manoa
Recall that their needs assessment
was for the upper level ESL listening
course in the ELI at the UHN. Notice how
different this objectives are in format from
those for the same skills in another
programme. Kimzin and Proctor choose to
organize their objectives around the main
goals described in their assessment of the
listening needs of students at UHN
following the pattern of microskills
presented in Richards 1983
