WRITING PERSONAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES Warm-up: What worries you most about going to work? List your 5-6 biggest fears or concerns. What are personal learning objectives ♦ the specific things you want to be able to do after you finish this course or program (I will be able to…) ♦ hoped for results (one result per objective) ♦ results that can be seen and measured ♦ results that use action words (Do NOT use words such as “learn, know, understand, comprehend, think, feel, appreciate,” etc. – these behaviours cannot be seen or measured.) ♦ results that can be assessed (can you actually do the skill or write the information you have learned or explain a process or solve a problem) How do you write personal learning objectives? ♦ Describe what you want to learn or what you hope you will be able to do after completing this course or program. Remember, each result must be something you and others can see and measure. ♦ Start with “When I finish this course or program, I will be able to...” ♦ Use an action word and ask yourself – can this action be measured or assessed? ♦ Do not use descriptions like “effectively, properly, correctly, good, excellent, well, etc.” We assume that you will be taught to do things properly or to do them well. For example, “I will be able to organize my work tasks effectively.” An example of a personal learning objective: When I finish this course or program, I will be able to: 1. read and fill out many kinds of workplace forms. Activity: What should I be able to do: read and fill out many kinds of workplace forms Action words: read, fill out (my instructor and I can assess these actions) With your class and the instructor, look through the objectives for the course or program. • Will all of the worries and fears you wrote at the top of the page be addressed by the objectives? • Are any objectives missing? • Should any objectives be changed? • Are there any objectives about how to survive at the workplace or are all the objectives about technical skills?
What are performance criteria? Once you have an objective, you must decide how you will know if you have learned what you are supposed to learn from completing the course or program. How well do you have to be able to perform the new skill before you can say that you have really learned something? To figure this out, you must answer the question, "What's good enough?" The answer to this question is called the performance criteria. Performance criteria depend on the kind of skills, knowledge or attitudes you are learning. Performance criteria involve concepts such as: • How many times must you do something correctly? • How fast must you must perform a task? • What quality must the product you produce be? • How accurate must you be? • How many mistakes are you allowed to make? For example: Objective: When I finish this course or program, I will be able to read and fill out many kinds of workplace forms. Performance criteria: I must fill out 6 different kinds of forms used in the job I want to have and I can’t make any mistakes. I must be able to fill out forms from more than one company. Application: Write 5-6 objectives for the course or program that will help you to get over the fears and worries you wrote at the top of page 1. Write these objectives in the first column. These objectives must deal with what you hope to learn about getting and keeping a job, and surviving in the workplace. Leave the second column blank. When I finish this course or program, I will be able to: How will I know if I have learned this? Objective 1: Objective 2: Objective 3:
