2 The Formula for Writing the Objective
• The outcome specifies the type of behaviour, the conditions state where, when,
and what tools will be used, and standards describe the criteria for judging the
adequacy of the behaviour. Remember that a learning objective should state
clearly what the result of the training will be.
• Here are the steps to follow:
⚬ Write out the "desired behaviour"
⚬ Verb needs to describe clearly what will be done
⚬ A "doing" verb is used to indicate some action.
⚬ Do not use the word understand. Always make sure that the verb describes an
action.

2 The Formula for Writing the Objective
⚬ Examples of "doing" verbs such a Knowledge: Analyse, cite, compare,
define, describe, distinguish, explain, identify, list, provide, name, quote,
reproduce
■ Skills: Assemble, compute, construct, count, design, demonstrate,
eliminate, install, list, measure, operate, place, recite, replace, solve, sort
■ Attitudes Align, belong, choose, commit, criticize, decide, praise
⚬ Now add the conditions under which the behaviour must be performed.
⚬ This description encompasses the use or non-use of aids.

2 The Formula for Writing the Objective
⚬ Example : So "using an ohmmeter," "using reference material provided,"
"using a standard climbing harness and spikes," "while at the top of a telephone
pole," "without the use of a manual, "without the use of a calculator".
⚬ Finally, it needs to be clear what standards for success will be used How will
the trainee know that he successfully completed the training?
⚬ What level of accuracy is required? Is quality or speed an important part of
success? "According to code," "following all safety procedures," "within five
minutes." "According to the manual" "within 15 minutes, "with no more than
three errors," and "obtaining a score of 80 percent" are all possible standards.
