For the first part, you will write three different effective learning objectives focusing on insects that will support the standard from your discussion. For the second part, you will search for an existing insect-based lesson plan on the internet. Identify the standards addressed in that lesson and re-write your own learning objectives for the lesson plan.
Things to remember about learning objectives:
Learning objectives are brief descriptions of specific things a learner completing the lesson will know or be able to do. They should be succinctly expressed using clear action verbs.
The text of effective instructional objectives includes three parts. These parts are best described in the work of training and human performance expert Robert Mager:
description of a performance - Question to ask when writing this part: What do I want students to be able to do? The performance must be observable so be specific (E.g., Don't simply state students will understand something. You can't observe that. Students will define in writing, sort insects into groups by order, etc.).
conditions - important conditions under which the performance is expected to occur Examples: Given a list of... (sort into stacks); when provided with standard tools... (construct a table); without using references... (know the state capitols) Questions to ask when writing this part: What are the important conditions or constraints under which I want them to perform? What the learner will be provided? What will the learner be denied? Are there special conditions which occur on the job or when performing?
criterion or standard - the quality or level of performance that will be considered acceptable. Examples: include measures of speed (in less than 30 minutes...), direction (according to manufacturers specifications...), accuracy (without error...) , quality (all cuts must be smooth to the touch). Question to ask when writing this part: How well must learners perform for me to be satisfied they've accomplished the objective?
Part 1 must include:
1.The grade level, the Big Idea/Supportive Idea, and Next Generation Sunshine State Standard (5 points).
2. Three effective learning objectives (see advice above) that focus on insects and support that standard (5 points a piece).
Part 2 includes:
1.A working link for the lesson plan (2 points).
2. The grade level, the Big Idea/Supportive Idea, and Next Generation Sunshine State Standard (3 points).
3. Three effective learning objectives that focus on insects and support that standard (5 points a piece).
