- 1. WORKSOP ON IDENTIFYING TESTOBJECTIVES Objective: * To ensure alignment among assessments, learning objectives and instructional strategies.
- 2. Why should assessments,learning objectives, and instructional strategies be aligned? Assessments Learning Objectives Instructional Activities
- 3. * Assessments: Whatkind of tasks will reveal whether students have achieved the learning objectives I have identified? *Learning Objectives: What do I want students to know and how to do when they leave this course? * Instructional Objectives: What kind of activities in and out of class will reinforce my learning objectives and prepare students for assessments?
- 4. ▪ Your objectiveis for students to learn to apply analytical skills, but your assessment measures only factual recall. Consequently, students honing their analytical skills are frustrated that the exam does not measure what they learned.
- 5. ▪ Your assessmentmeasures students’ ability to compare and critique the arguments of different authors, but your instructional strategies focus entirely on summarizing the arguments of different authors. Consequently, students do not learn or practice the skills of comparison and evaluation that will be assessed.
