Articulate Your Learning Objectives
Before you decide on the content to cover in your course, endow your course with a strong internal structure conducive to student learning.
Alignment among three main course components ensures an internally consistent structure. Alignment is when the:
- OBJECTIVES articulate the knowledge and skills you want students to acquire by the end of the course
- ASSESSMENTS allow the instructor to check the degree to which the students are meeting the learning objectives
- INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES are chosen to foster student learning towards meeting the objectives
Aligning these three components is a dynamic process, since a change in one
necessarily affects the other two.
One way to approach course design is to start from the learning objectives, then move on to the other two components, and revisit the cycle iteratively as needed.Articulating your learning objectives will help:
- YOU select and organize course content, and determine appropriate assessments and instructional strategies.
- STUDENTS direct their learning efforts appropriately and monitor their own progress.
