Essential Questions
What do I want all students to know and be able to do at the end of this lesson? What will I do to cause this learning to happen? What will students do to facilitate this learning? How will I assess to find out if this learning happened? What will I do for those who show through assessment that the learning did not take place?

Planning
1. Understand the objectives
Objectives set out in the syllabus
2. Create your own sub objectives to suit the needs of your learners
Requires considerable planning
3. Decide on the things you want the learners to know, and what they will do with that knowledge. What do you want them to feel and do?
Planning
4. Decide on the strategies
We do not want to limit our classes to acquisition of knowledge Other important objectives include feeling and/or action
Cognitive Domain
This domain focuses on intellectual skills and is familiar to educators. Blooms Taxonomy on the cognitive domain describes the increasing complexity of cognitive skills as students move from beginner to more advanced in their knowledge of content. The cognitive domain is the core learning domain.
Affective Domain
Organize, Select, Judge, Decide, Identify with Attain, Assume, Support, Participate Reply, Answer, Follow along, Approve, Continue

Assessment
Ineffective Assignments:
The teacher tells the class what is to be covered
Effective Assignments:
The teacher tells the students what they are to have accomplished or mastered at the end of the lesson Teach with the end in mind
24
Effective Assessments
Must have structure and be precise Structure
The assignment must have a consistent and familiar format that the students can recognize as their assignment The assignment must be posted daily in a consistent location BEFORE students enter the room
Preciseness
The assignment must state clearly and simply what the students are to ACCOMPLISH

Consider a pre-test or use pre-assessment information to guide instruction how much do they know; where are the rough spots? Develop some formative evaluation techniques to use along the way how are they doing; what should I revisit a different way? Build from a test blueprint or table of specifications - 2-way table preferred over the 1-way blueprint? Decide on length how many items for the time allowed; is the rule of thumb one-item-per-minute for objective items enough? Allow time for preparing is it a new test you are creating for the first time; is it a recycled test? Plan for scoring how much time will you need; What should students score? Feedback to students feedback should be sooner rather than later; will students see their grade only; entire test; go over all items?
