Setting objectives establishes a direction for learning. Once students understand the parameters of an objective, they should brainstorm to determine what they know and what they want to learn. Specific, timely, and regular feedback to students enhances their learning. Also, feedback should include an explanation of why an item is correct or incorrect and be criterion referenced. In other words, students should understand where they stand relative to a specific target of knowledge or skill.
Look over an objective you've written for next week, have your students create a KWL or contract with them about the learning you wish for them to do as well as what they would like to become more knowledgeable about during the lesson. You may wish to utilize the links that are provided to help you develop a rubric for students as they self-assess their learning and/or a graphic organizer.
