1. Instructor provides broad, general goals for the course, but no course or module level
objectives as distinct from these.
3. Instructor provides several course and/or module level objectives that are distinct from the
general goals for the course, but the objectives as written typically fail to be properly formed.
bjectives should specify an observable behavior, a condition under which that behavior occurs,
and a criterion indicating what constitutes successful performance of that behavior.
!"ample of a poorly formed objective# $tudents will understand the influence of physiological age and health status on dosage re%uirements.
!"ample of a well&formed objective# 'sing the principles of pharmaco(inetics, students
will be able to competently adjust dosage re%uirements based upon variability in
physiological age and health status.
). Instructor provides several course and/or module level objectives that are distinct from the
general goals for the course, and the objectives as written are all well&formed.
*. Goals and objectives appropriate to level of the course

1. +iven the place of the course in the curriculum and the stated prere%uisites or as judged by the
course number-, both the goals and objectives demand far too much or too little of the students
e.g., they demand merely factual recall in a high&level course that should demand that students
synthesie and apply (nowledge-
3. +iven the place of the course in the curriculum and the stated prere%uisites or as judged by the
course number-, the goals and objectives are slightly mismatched with respect to the e"pected
level of (nowledge, s(ill and e"perience of learners.

0. %earning activities and teaching strategies &atch the course objectives$
omment on the degree to which learning activities and teaching strategies contribute to the
achievement of the course objectives.

course objectives e.g., the course objectives include synthesis and application of principles in
novel circumstances, but the primary activity in the course is lecture/information delivery and(nowledge recall-.
3. In the reviewer2s judgment, learning activities and teaching strategies are ade%uately matched
to some of the course objectives, but there are some significant mismatches.
). In the reviewer2s judgment, learning activities and teaching strategies are ideally suited tohelping the students achieve all of the course objectives.
he connection between the course objectives and learning activities is apparent to students.
1. o e"plicit or implicit connection is revealed between the course objectives and the activities
and strategies utilied in the course.
3. An implicit connection is made by, for instance, regularly restating the objectives in
assignments or at the beginning of modules. r, connections are made e"plicitly but onlyoccasionally throughout the course.
