Objective. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Objective may refer to: Topics referred to by the same term. Educational aims and objectives. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Although the noun forms of the three words aim, objective and goal are often used synonymously,[1] professionals in organised education define the educational aims and objectives more narrowly and consider them to be distinct from each other: aims are concerned with purpose whereas objectives are concerned with achievement. Usually an educational objective relates to gaining an ability, a skill, some knowledge, a new attitude etc. rather than having merely completed a given task. Since the achievement of objectives usually takes place during the course and the aims look forward into the student's career and life beyond the course one can expect the aims of a course to be relatively more long term than the objectives of that same course.[2][3] Course objectives[edit] An objective is a (relatively) shorter term goal which successful learners will achieve within the scope of the course itself.

Learning outcomes[edit] See also[edit] Education portal. Student Learning Objectives. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A Student Learning Objectives (SLO) is an assessment tool that allows a teacher to quantify their impact on student achievement as measured within the parameters of a particular academic or elective standard. Characteristics[edit] A SLO is an assessment tool that allows a teacher to quantify their impact on student achievement as measured within the parameters of a particular academic or elective standard. In many cases, the standards that will be addressed will be drawn from the Common Core State Standards. An objective is a small goal that needs to be met on the way to fulfilling the larger course outcome or goal. Elements[edit] Data-driven instruction & assessment - The local education agency (LEA) should review past data gathering systems to determine an overarching goal for individual teacher SLO development.[3] It is important to include all educational stakeholders in this process.

There is sometimes confusion between aims and objectives. Aims and Objectives in Broad Terms Aims are what you hope to achieve by the end of your dissertation. Objectives are how you intend to achieve those aims. Example Title Aims. Aims and Objectives. Aims: Are broad statements of desired outcomes, or the general intentions of the research, which 'paint a picture' of your research project Emphasize what is to be accomplished (not how it is to be accomplished) Address the long-term project outcomes, i.e. they should reflect the aspirations and expectations of the research topic. Once aims have been established, the next task is to formulate the objectives.

Generally, a project should have no more than two or three aims statements, while it may include a number of objectives consistent with them. Objectives are subsidiary to aims and: Are the steps you are going to take to answer your research questions or a specific list of tasks needed to accomplish the goals of the project Emphasize how aims are to be accomplished Must be highly focused and feasible Address the more immediate project outcomes Make accurate use of concepts Must be sensible and precisely described Should read as an 'individual' statement to convey your intentions Aim.

At the other extreme, some students have a completely free choice, within of course the limitations of the institution being able to supervise it. Other students lie somewhere between with, perhaps, the institution providing a list of topics from which students may choose. All students, though, irrespective of the category they fall into, will still have to do a certain amount of refinement of their topic to show their own engagement with it, demonstrated initially in their research proposal. This page is a starting point for you if you have some choice of topic or area. If not, go straight on to the page about research questions and problems. 1. 2. 3. 4.
