The document discusses how to write effective learning objectives. It states that learning objectives should clearly describe what students will be able to do after completing instruction. An example objective is provided: "LWBAT: Give directions to a tourist using a map." This objective specifies the skill (giving directions), the content (to a tourist), and the condition (using a map). The document also notes learning objectives should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound.
