The ABCDs of Writing Instructional Objectives

The ABCD method of writing objectives is an excellent way to structure instructional objectives. In this
method, "A" is for audience, "B" is for behavior, "C" for conditions and "D" is for degree of mastery needed.

Example: -"Given a sentence written in the past or present tense, the student will be able to re-write the
sentence in future tense with no errors in tense or tense contradiction (i.e., I will see her yesterday.)."

The key here is to use verbs that indicate a clearly observable and measurable action. Appropriate action verbs
for the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains are listed below.

Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain

Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive learning, originated by Benjamin Bloom and collaborators in the 1950's,
describes several categories of cognitive learning.

ORIGINAL BLOOM COGNITIVE TAXONOMY

Category Description
Knowledge Ability to recall previously learned material.
Comprehension Ability to grasp meaning, explain, restate ideas.
Application Ability to use learned material in new situations.
Ability to separate material into component parts and show relationships
Analysis
between parts.
Ability to put together the separate ideas to form new whole, establish
Synthesis
new relationships.
Evaluation Ability to judge the worth of material against stated criteria.

This taxonomy was revised in 2001 by Anderson and Krathwohl to change the category names from nouns to
verbs, and to switch the Evaluation and Synthesis levels in the hierarchy.

REVISED ANDERSON AND KRATHWOHL COGNITIVE TAXONOMY

Category Description
Remember Ability to recall previously learned material.
Understand Ability to grasp meaning, explain, restate ideas.
Apply Ability to use learned material in new situations.
Ability to separate material into component parts and show relationships
Analyze
between parts.
Evaluate Ability to judge the worth of material against stated criteria.
Ability to put together the separate ideas to form new whole, establish
Create
new relationships.

Many people also call the analysis, synthesis/create, and evaluation categories “problem solving.”

Krathwohl and Bloom’s Taxonomy of the Affective Domain

Krathwohl and Bloom's 1964 taxonomy of the affective domain describes several categories of affective
learning.

AFFECTIVE TAXONOMY
Level Definition Example

Psychomotor Domain
The following is a synthesis of the taxonomies of Simpson (1972), Dave (1970), and Harrow (1972).

PSYCHOMOTOR TAXONOMY
Level Definition Example
Observing Active mental attending of a physical event. The learner watches a more experienced person. Other
mental activity, such as reading may be a pert of the
observation process.
Imitating Attempted copying of a physical behavior. The first steps in learning a skill. The learner is
observed and given direction and feedback on
performance. Movement is not automatic or smooth.
Practicing Trying a specific physical activity over and over. The skill is repeated over and over. The entire sequence
is performed repeatedly. Movement is moving towards
becoming automatic and smooth.
Adapting Fine tuning. Making minor adjustments in the The skill is perfected. A mentor or a coach is often
