It is important to have a clear understanding of the standards and objectives. This clear understanding will provide students with helpful guidance in preparation for learning what is being taught.

Creating objectives will help your class have clarity in the expectations for the course. It is important that they can be measured and assessed in order for your students to know exactly where they stand with the material and where they need to improve.
Having clear objectives in the lesson plan helps to ensure that students are provided with well-defined and measurable learning goals.
I have learned how objectives should always be aligned and reflect Occupational/Learning standards that are set forth in the governing bodies for the states.
Effective education relies on clear, measurable objectives that align with established standards. Using tools like Bloom's Taxonomy and the ABCD model, educators can create objectives that guide instruction and provide students with clear learning goals. Standards define the required knowledge and skills, ensuring assessments accurately measure student progress.
Relationship between industry standards and objective of the course. Use of stakeholder meetings help the instructor to uncover industry standards. This is valuable if that program of study does not have published standards (as in traditional and business programs). Healthcare standards are well defined and coordinators need to keep in mind that all of the courses being prepared are based on those regulatory standards of practice.
clear learning objectives help students understand what to learn and why. using specific measurable goals with action verbs makes progress easier to track. A well structured lesson plan keeps classes organized and effective.
Learning objectives, standards and assessments are necessary to help measure the progress of the students.
It is important to specify what is being learned and for what purpose. Setting a standard for expected knowledge level as well as a standard ability to apply that knowledge can help students as they progress.
When creating lesson plans, we should make sure to write clear and measurable learning objectives that align with educational standards. Objectives should describe specific actions or behaviors that can be observed and assessed. For example, instead of stating that students will "know how to format a document," a more precise objective would be for students to "use spacing, font size, and margins to format a document." I tend to use action verbs like "define" or "demonstrate," which makes the objectives measurable and easier to evaluate. I review my objectives regularly to ensure they are clear, focused, and aligned with the intended learning outcomes, helping both you and your students stay on track.
my take away from this is to have a well prepared structure that is relevant to the objectives and in the field. If you have this, your class practically "writes itself"
Blooms taxonomy can be used to help create lessons that allow students to demonstrate their understanding using different depts of knowledge.
In this module I learned that having objectives and standards help guide the procedure of a lesson plan
The Taxonomy of Learning chart/principles (Level 1-3) is useful in building your Lesson Plan. The key verbs will make it easier to build out my plan/objectives.
