Part1

5. "Beginwiththeendinthemind"
This implies that we need to have clearly
defined objectives in our lesson.
These objectives give our lesson a purpose, a
goal in which we need to aim at the end of a
class period.
The objectives are like our destination in a long
and winding road. If we know where our
destination is, then all we need to do is to think
and perform ways to reach it.
Guiding Principles in Determining and Formulating Objectives

6. Sharelessonobjectivewith
students
If we teachers inform our students about
today’s lesson objectives, it gives students the
idea the “we are all in this together”.
Learning becomes collaborative and is not solely
controlled by the teacher.
It gives the students as well the opportunity to
embrace the objectives both as their personal or
even class target. That at the end of the period,
they are expected to achieve these targets
making them more motivated to learn.
Guiding Principles in Determining and Formulating Objectives

7. Objectivesmustbeholistic.
These must include the three domains namely
cognitive (knowledge skills), psychomotor
(skills objectives) and affective (attitudinal
objectives).
For our students to become well-rounded
individuals, we need to address each domain,
most especially the affective domain, for them
to make learning more meaningful.
Learning, without embracing it, just becomes
repetition of facts, thus no significant change
happened to the learners.
Guiding Principles in Determining and Formulating Objectives

8. Makethelessonobjectivesrelevant
tostudents’ lives.
As teachers, we need to explain to our students that
the lesson objectives are applicable in our lives, that
what we teach are useful in their homes, in school or
in their future work.
With our lesson objective becoming our students’
lesson objective, too, our students will be self-
propelled as we teach.

The objectives, even in the classroom level, still
must contribute to the realization of the vision
and mission statement of the school, the
department and the general aim as a whole
based on the Constitution.
Guiding Principles in Determining and Formulating Objectives

10. Lessonobjectivesmustaimfor
higher-orderedthinkingskills.
Our objectives should not be settled on merely
repetition of facts.
To make our students life-long learners, we
need them to develop critical and creative skills
so that they will not just receive existing
knowledge rather generate new knowledge and
ideas.
We need to teach students not what to learn,
but how to learn. Metacognition should be also
developed.

Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant,
Time-bounded.
