  5. What is a Learning Objective (LO)? A learning objective is a specific, result statement of what the learner will know, understand, and/or accomplish following a learning activity.

  6. Characteristics of an Effective LO: • Clear, rigorous, and outcomes-based • Aligned to district curriculum maps & assessments, as well as state’s standards • Focuses teacher and students throughout the lesson • Can be taught in 1 lesson • Students can explain what they are learning, why it is important, what mastery looks like, how to connect it to prior knowledge and their lives

  7. A Learning Objective is NOT... • an agenda or a schedule. • a description of an activity or resource. • description of the vehicle or method used to teach the concept. • too broad or vague.

  8. LO Example SE: 6.2 B use context (e.g., cause and effect or compare and contrast organizational text structures) to determine or clarify the meaning of unfamiliar or multiple meaning words; Readiness Standard LO: Students will be able to (SWBAT) infer the meaning of unfamiliar words using context clues within the text, Sharks Attack.

  10. What is a Demonstration of Learning, (DOL)? A Demonstration of Learning is an assessment or product through which students demonstrate that they have learned the objective of the lesson.

  11. Characteristics of an Effective DOL • Clear/understandable and rigorous • Developed in advance • Measures student mastery or growth in knowledge and skill relative to standards of the posted objective • Can be accomplished in 5-10 minutes independently by students

  12. A DOL is NOT... • a check for understanding. • an activity or project used to teach the objective. • a quiz or exam that assesses multiple objectives. • homework. • group work

  13. DOL Example SE: 6.2 B use context (e.g., cause and effect or compare and contrast organizational text structures) to determine or clarify the meaning of unfamiliar or multiple meaning words; Readiness Standard LO: Students will be able to (SWBAT) infer the meaning of unfamiliar words using context clues within the text, Sharks Attack. DOL: Given a text, students will be able to infer the meaning of 3 out of 4 underlined vocabulary words using context clues.
