This document discusses outcome expressions in language teaching, including goals, objectives, competencies, and standards. It defines these key terms and explains the differences between goals and objectives. Objectives are more specific statements that describe what learners will know or be able to do. The document also covers types of objectives, such as coverage, involvement, critical thinking, and performance objectives. It discusses criticisms and advantages of using objectives in language teaching. Finally, it introduces competencies and standards as alternatives to goals and objectives.

Task-based syllabus design and task sequencingKen Urano
Invited talk at the 2nd joint international methodology research colloquium, co-hosted by by Okinawa JALT, KATE Corpus SIG, & LET Kansai Methodology SIG.
February 16, 2016
Having learned about theories of language acquisition and language teaching method, this presentation is about perspective in syllabus design, a typical applied linguistics activity.
This presentation provides a general overview about syllabus design. The presenation highlights the definiton of syllabus, types of syllabi, components of syllabus and the scope of syllabus design. It also sheds the light on the relationship between syllabus design and curriculum development. By the end of this presentation, students will gain general understanding or syllabus design.
Product Syllabus : product syllabuses are those in which the focus is on the knowledge and skills which learners should gain as a result of instruction.
4.2. process syllabuses are those which focus on the learning experiences themselves.
. Synthetic syllabus: segment the target language into discrete linguistic items.
Different parts of language are taught separately.
4.4 . Analytic Syllabi: focus on the learner and his needs and on the kinds of linguistic
performance necessary to achieve those goals .
4.5. Type A: This type deals with what should be learned in a second language classroom.
4.6. Type B : Consider the question of how a second language should be learned.
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

The purpose of this presentation is to provide an overview of "rubric" in language testing and assessment and to highlight the parts of a rubric through various dimensions. Moreover, it sets forth in creating awareness of the effective use of rubrics in measuring multiple dimensions of students' learning and in reflecting robustness of this critical assessment process.
Presentation for the first class of the course "Language Course Design" at the Advanced Graduate Deploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language at Universidad Simon Bolivar, Caracas, Venezuela.
Portfolio is an assessment method that monitors the growth and development of student learning. Unlike most assessments, portfolio assessment can contain many different forms of assessments as it is a collection of student's works.
Guided Response Respond to at least one classmate with objesseniasaddler
Guided Response:
Respond to at least one
classmate with objectives and assessment ideas in the same grade range you chose (Pre-K-2nd, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12, and other) and one with objectives and assessment ideas in a completely different grade range.
Are their objectives clear and measurable?
Do they identify specifically, what the STUDENT will be doing and how?
Are they aligned (related) to the given standard?
It is important to remember professionalism in your feedback. You are to give constructive feedback by giving the author a different lens with which to view their original ideas. Therefore, provide them with a specific suggestion for making their objective and/or assessment more complex according to Bloom’s Taxonomy.

Laura Powell
Describe the purpose of a learning standard (referred to as a goal in Chapter 1) and the critical components of a learning objective.
How would you differentiate between the two if attempting to explain it to somebody else?
Eample: According to Lea, K. (2013)
Standard:
Solve problems involving scale drawings of geometric figures, including computing actual lengths and areas from a scale drawing and reproducing a scale drawing at a different scale. (This is a Common Core mathematics standard for seventh grade.)
Objective:
Students will compute lengths and areas of a classroom to create a blueprint of the classroom indicating the scale used. When finished, students will write a "sales pitch" to a person explaining why their blueprint is accurate and should be purchased.
A standard is what is expected and a objective is what goals are trying to be accomplished or met. With standards we teach what is suppose to be taught out of that subject and their are certain things from the subject that students needs to know and learn in order to move on and the objective is how can the teacher get the student there? What are the goals?
what is the relationship between formative assessments during instruction and the standards and objectives of that lesson?
It is hard to teach when the teacher does not know what type of learner they are trying to teach. So the relationship between assessment is to teach the teacher what type of student or learner they have. Than the standard is implying what the lesson is asking out the students and what the student needs to know from that lesson to master and the objectives are goals and steps to help the student get there. All three are vital ingrredents to help get the student where he or she needs to be to pass or master the lesson.
Take the challenge Karen Lea presents in her blog article

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
2. Before starting
Reflect about the following questions
• Are you familiar with the goals and objectives of
the program you are currently teaching?
• How about the textbook you are using? Does it
state explicitly the goals and objectives?
• When planning a lesson, do you usually refer to
the list of goals and objectives of the program?
3. In this presentation
• Definition of outcome expressions.
• Classes of outcome expressions.
• Differences between goals and objectives.
• Performance objectives.
• Criticism to objectives.
• Advantages of objectives.
• Alternatives to goals and objectives:
competencies and standards.
• Deriving outcome expressions from needs.
7. Goals
…general statements concerning desirable and
attainable program purposes and aims based on
perceived language and situation needs.
Brown, 1995, p.71
9. Goals purpose and characteristics
Goals…
• are general statements of the program’s
purposes.
• focus on what the program hopes to accomplish
in the future […] what they students should be
able to do when they leave the program.
Brown, 1995, pp.71-72
10. Goals purpose and characteristics
Goals…
• serve as one basis for developing more precise
and observable objectives.
• should never be viewed as permanent.
Brown, 1995, pp.71-72
11. Instructional objectives
specific statements that describe the particular
knowledge, behaviors, and/or skills that the
learner will be expected to know or perform at
the end of a course or program.
Brown, 1995, p.73
15. Coverage objectives
…articulate how much content will be covered.
…are linked to content in instructional material
Examples:
In this course, we will cover the first five units of the textbook.
In this class, students will work on pages 10 through 13 of the
textbook.
Graves, 2001
16. Involvement objectives
…articulate how to maximize students’ involvement
and interest.
…are motivational in nature
Examples:
Students will discuss which paragraph they like best.
Students will brainstorm lists of interesting topics to write about.
Graves, 2001
17. Critical-thinking objectives
…articulate which learning skills students are
expected to develop.
…are linked to cognitive processes.
Example:
Students will be able to determine characteristics of good
paragraphs and articulate why they think a paragraph is good..
Graves, 2001
18. Performance or behavioral
objectives
…articulate what students will be able to do as a result of
instruction
…specify observable class behaviors and the conditions under
which the behaviors will take place.
Example:
Students will be able to write a paragraph in English containing a
topic sentence and at least 3 supporting details.
Brown, 1995 and Graves, 2001
20. Components of performance
objectives exemplified
Working in pairs, learners will provide enough
information for their partner to draw a three-
generation family tree.
Taken from Nunan & Lamb, 2001, p. 41
22. Components of performance
objectives exemplified
Working in pairs,
learners will provide enough information
for their partner to draw a three-generation family tree.
23. Brown’s elements for sound
objectives
• Subject (who?)
• Performance (what?)
• Condition (where? How much time? What resources?)
• Measure (How?)
• Criterion (How well?)
24. Keypoints in objectives writing
• Variability in specificity
• Flexibility (they are not permanent)
• Consensus-based in nature
• Program specificity
• Teacher-friendliness
26. Criticism
• Association with behavioral psychology
• Issues with quantifyability
• Trivialization of instruction
• Limitations in teachers’ freedom
• Inadequacy for expression of language learning
Brown, 1995
27. Advantages
Objectives help teachers to…
• convert the perceived needs into teaching points.
• clarify and organize those teaching points.
• think through skills and sub-skills underlying
instructional points.
• decide what they want students to be able to do.
• decide the level of specificity for teaching activities.
Brown, 1995
28. More advantages
Objectives help teachers to…
• construct valid and reliable assessment tools.
• adopt, adapt and develop teaching materials.
• develop professionally
• evaluate students’ progress and program
effectiveness.
• be part of the collective process of curriculum
development.
Brown, 1995
30. Competencies
a performance outline of language tasks that
lead to a demonstrated mastery of language
associated with specific skills that are necessary
for individuals to function proficiently in the
society in which they live
Grognet & Candall, 1982, p. 3
31. Competencies
…written descriptions of what a student is able
to do with the language, usually in terms of
target language performance.
Richards & Schmidt, 2002, p. 94
32. Competencies
Competencies refer to observable bahaviors (just
like objectives), but differ in
• a focus on successful functioning in society
• a focus on life skills
• task or performance centered orientations
• modularization of instruction (behaviors are
broken down into sub-behaviors to be mastered).
Auerback, 1986, p. 411
33. Standards
…comprehensive description of what language
learners know in the target language at various
levels of proficiency, at various grade levels, or
both.
Richards & Schmidt, 2002, p. 511
34. Standards
Descriptions (rather than prescriptions) of what
people can actually do with the target language
at different levels (stages) of competence which
provide a framework to measure outcomes and
set expectations in progress.
Paraphrased from Omaggio, 1986
35. Standards
Statements that define what students should
know and be able to do, accompanied by
performance descriptors and progress
indicators.
Paraphrased from Nunan, 2001
39. Developing goals and
objectives from needs
Narrow the scope of the goal statements
Obj. 1,1
