PLANNING AND CONDUCTING CLASSES Flashcards
The Planning Sequence: (FSOCDE)
Formulate objective Select content Organize content Choose teaching methods Design assignments Evaluation methods
A contract bet teachers and learners
Document that pertains the brief summary of topics covered in a particular course/ subject
Course Outline/ Learning Plan/ Syllabus/ Course Guide
Useful for the teacher and students, and both can benefit from this document
Tedious and detailed document made by the teacher in order to achieve desired attributes or learning for learners in preparation of their career
Course Outline/ Learning Plan/ Syllabus/ Course Guide
(Not only provides the topics, but provides the materials needed, that will engage the teacher and learner, contains the expected goals, and consist the timeline/ schedule or timeframe)
ODD MAN OUT:
Course Outline/ Learning Plan/ Syllabus/ Course Guide includes:
Name/ description of the course One-paragraph course description List of course objectives Autobiography of Instructor Topical outline Course schedule Course code
Autobiography of Instructor
ODD MAN OUT:
Course Outline/ Learning Plan/ Syllabus/ Course Guide includes:
Learner's identification details The teaching methods to be used Methods of evaluation Textbooks and other readings Name of the instructor Learning outcome Assessments tasks and grading Responsibilities as a student
Learner’s identification details
what is aimed for, goals, things want to attain when an action/ effort is done
Kind of objectives each course has will guide the educators in selection and handling
Objective
(When formulating it is necessary to consider the behavior, skills, anticipated action of students
Will reveals the expected outcomes
This what makes the objectives measurable and operational)
The Planning Sequence:
At the end of a course, this is where you can tell whether the student has achieved or accomplished the learning plan
When learning outcome/ objective is achieved, that is only when you can say that a student has learned something
Formulating Objective
A. If only the 1st statement is true B. If only the 2nd statement is true C. If both statements are true D. If neither of the statements is true Objectives...
- Can be a guide for the selection and handling of course materials appropriate for learning activities, teaching methodologies, and type of learners.
- Help determine whether people in the class have learned what the teacher has tried to teach.
C
A. If only the 1st statement is true
B. If only the 2nd statement is true
C. If both statements are true
D. If neither of the statements is true
- Objectives are essential from the learner’s perspective.
- They do not need to know more about a course than they can get from a course description or a list of course content.
A
Characteristics of Objectives:
You must tell exactly what is expected, why it is important, who is involved, where it is going to happen, which attributes are important, what needs to happen, and when it needs to be completed
Specific
(Made up of desired result in a detailed focus and well defined manner, need to be considered to be able to come up with a specific objective
Cannot be vague due to desired outcomes)
Characteristics of Objectives:
Emphasizes the need for concrete standard criteria for measuring progress toward the attainment of the goal.
Enable to know when objective is successfully achieved, if not it will be hard to know if desired objective is achieved or not
Measurable
(Achievement must be translatable or quantifiable using a percentage, frequency, rate, or number
Data incorporated in doing the objectives are those that can be statistically transcribed/ translated)
Characteristics of Objectives:
Questions: How will i know that the changes has occurred, can this measurements be obtained
Measurable
(Resources needs to be filtered, categorized, or sorted out whether tangible or intangible
Needed physical resources should be seen (tangible) to achieve the outcomes)
Characteristics of Objectives:
Points out the importance of goals that are realistic.
Tangible and intangible resources are needed or accounted
People involved possess the intangible qualities or resources
Attainable, achievable, agreed
Majorly relies to whom it is assigned or are designated to do it (willing and voluntary)
Able to achieve and have the capability to achieve the desired objective/ expected outcomes
Characteristics of Objectives:
Questions: who will carry out the actions required, are they capable, are the resources available or obtained, who will bear responsibility for what
Attainable, achievable, agreed
Depends of its agreed feasibility, there are necessary resources that are available or similar results have been obtained already by others in similar and related circumstances that can be applied to the present objectives being formulated
Techniques and methods of others can be adopted if effective on the objective at hand
once discussed the importance of objective and importance of role
Act of being agreeable from this responsible individuals, can make room for them to be more committed, devoted, dedicated in assisting and accomplishing the desired objectives
Assure responsible person that there are resources available
Agreement
Characteristics of Objectives:
Stresses the importance of choosing goals that matter. Relevant goals are purpose- driven.
Result-oriented, Relevant & Realistic
a good grip on reality of a situation, own understanding of what and cannot be done, practical, achievable idea, something that resembles the actual truth about life
Have clear understanding on how to achieve the objective
Realistic
no circumstances or no factors which would make the achievement of the objective impossible or unlikely
Any potential obstacles or constrains have to be taken into account
Result-oriented
suggest that objective set are appropriate to individual or team
Individual job rules fits them and functions well to the benefit of the overall organizational level
This job or function must support or aligned w/ the overall values, purpose, strategy, and long-term objectives of an entire organization
Relevant
Characteristics of Objectives:
Emphasizes the importance of formulating goals within a time frame, giving them a target date.
In formulating objectives, timeframes should be set or scheduled
Timely, Time-bound & Terminal
contributes to the measurability of the objectives
A good practice to identify the milestone or key steps to keep the progress, time management
Timeframe
develops necessary urgency, focuses the mind of those accountable for the commitment, and helps avoid procrastination
Deadline
Characteristics of Objectives:
Actual checking if methodologies and techniques used and applied are effective and efficient or not
Happens when actual measurement has been already transcribed, translated or analyzed
Evaluation/ Evaluated
Characteristics of Objectives:
Conclude the effectiveness of the objective/ measurement
Ways on how to further improve the tools used in order to achieve the objectives
Reviewed & Rewarded
driving force would be retained, to further achieved something out of the objective that has been initially set and applied
Rewarded
Characteristics of Objectives: (SMARTER)
Specific Measurable Attainable, Achievable, Agreed Result-oriented, Relevant, Realistic Timely, Time-bound Evaluation/Evaluated Reviewed & Rewarded
A. If only the 1st statement is true B. If only the 2nd statement is true C. If both statements are true D. If neither of the statements is true Importance of SMART Objectives
- Quite easy to find out at the end of the lesson if the teacher attained his/her objective or not, easier to know when expected outcomes has been met or not
- Easier to the teacher’s part to formulate a test that is valid to measure the attainment of the lesson objective, assessments are easier to make
C
A. If only the 1st statement is true B. If only the 2nd statement is true C. If both statements are true D. If neither of the statements is true Importance of SMART Objectives
- The lesson becomes less focused because the teacher has a concrete picture of the behavior that the students should be able to demonstrate if the teacher realized his/her lesson objective.
- Topics and lessons are less focused, teacher would be able to see and gauge if the students are able to understand the lesson or not
D
A. If only the 1st statement is true B. If only the 2nd statement is true C. If both statements are true D. If neither of the statements is true Importance of SMART Objectives
- Decrease the teacher’s accountability for the learning of the students.
- It departs from the unsound practice of teaching that is so spread out, that in the end, the teacher finds himself unclear on what test he is going to give to assess learning.
B
Developed by Benjamin Bloom in 1956. Educational psychologist and worked as an Asst. Director for the University of Chicago’s Board of Examinations
Bloom’s Taxonomy of Objectives
hierarchical model (bottom to top) that categorizes learning objectives into varying levels of complexity; basic knowledge and comprehension up to advance evaluation and creation by recommending specific verbs to use when writing learning objectives, so that objectives can be measured
Bloom’s Taxonomy
(Higher levels of the pyramid are depended on having achieved the skills of the lower levels
Hierarchical model in relation on how learning objectives are being categorized)
Recommend specific verbs to use when writing learning objectives so that the objectives can be measured.
Used to classify diff objectives and skills that educators set or created for their students
Taxonomy of Objectives
3 Domains of Learning: CAP
Cognitive Learning
Affective Learning
Psychomotor Learning
A. If only the 1st statement is true
B. If only the 2nd statement is true
C. If both statements are true
D. If neither of the statements is true
- Under each domain, learning can take place at a number of level, ranging from simple to complex, one after the other
- Only after a student masters one level of learning goals, that is the time when they can move on a next level
C
3 Domains of Learning:
thinking and intellect
These are objectives that deal with recall or recognition of knowledge and the development of intellectual abilities and skills
Cognitive Domain
Learning in this aspect refers to the mental processes: memorization and ability to think, analyze, and solve problems
3 Domains of Learning:
Way how brain is used, how we utilize our intellect, how we apply on learning
Original version of taxonomy, most common and imp hierarchy of learning objectives
Learning objectives particularly students are based here
Cognitive Domain
Focuses on acquisition and application of knowledge
Widely used in educational setting
Level’s in Bloom’s Taxonomy (Cognitive Learning): KCAASE
Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluation
Level’s in Bloom’s Taxonomy (Cognitive Learning):
Recall of information, discovery, observation, listing, locating, naming
Foundation of pyramid, most intuitive block, pre-conditioned for all the future levels
Knowledge
(Knowledge of terminology and conventions, trends and sequences, classifications and categories, criteria and methodologies, principles, theories, and structures
Verbs: Define, delineate, describe, identify, list, name, state)
4 Types/ Dimensions of Knowledge/ Learning:
general knowledge of terminology and specific videos
