The process of instruction helps to achieve certain immediate goals which leads the learner nearer to the ultimate goal of education. These objectives are attainable as a result of classroom teaching.
Objectives serves as a foundation for meaningful and effective teaching. The teacher knows what his pupil will do or how they will behave after the classroom instruction is over. Thus the objectives makes teaching goal oriented and purposeful. This is called objective based approach to instruction.
- Teacher should clearly define his objectives.
- Appropriate learning experience must be provided for attaining the objectives
- Degree of realization of objective can be evaluated in terms of behavioural change produced. ie evaluation of learning objectives gained from learning activities as part of instruction.
Thus the OBJECTIVE serves as the basis for planning learning activities resulting in LEARNING EXPERIENCE as well as for EVALUATING the quality of learning achieved.
Education is an objective oriented triangular process.
The interrelationship of the three may be represented as
- Learning experience is based on objective
- Objectives get clarified by learning experience
- Evaluation is based on objectives.
- Objectives get clarified by evaluation. ( Attainment )
- Evaluation gives evidence on learning experience. (effectiveness of learning)
- Learning experience gives hint to the nature of situation for evaluation.
Recently, Paradigm shift in education by focusing on OUTCOME BASED INSTRUCTION
Change in the terminology of learning objectives into learning outcomes
The learning outcomes of a learner is crystal clearly explicited in terms of measurable observable behavioral modification viz responses in terms of learners action verbs in classroom
Change in terminology of Evaluation to Assessment
Not merely focusing on measurement of scores of learners, Assessment clearly examines the learning process by means of formative, summative & self reflection process & provide needy feedbacks & remedial measures for improvement and thereby ensuring fruitful outcomes
Assessment in 3 dimensions
- Assessment for learning : Formative Assessment
- Assessment of learning : Summative Assessment
- Assessment as learning : Self Assessment / Self Reflection
