Lesson Planning: From Writing Objectives to
Selecting Instructional Programs.
New for 2008:
Added section on Goal Ranking
When is a "program" a complete "program?" This is a simple question, but in order to answer it, you need to know the components of a complete instructional program. Believe me, a lot rides on knowing the difference between the two. Over the course of my career I have seen the disastrous results of schools and school systems buying programs that were not complete programs, and further wasting money on teacher training to implement these "programs." The cycle is seemingly endless. I offer a new insight and solution to this waste of time, money and teacher talent.
This version of the program is the same as the original "How to Write Learning Objectives" with the addition of a new section that relates to criteria for selecting instructional programs that will operate as claimed in actual classroom settings. The criteria are presented in an easily understood, plain-English format. They are useful to any educator, regardless of experience, or to those preparing to become teachers.
The criteria that I developed will help you ask the right questions about any proposed "instructional program." It also details for you when a salesman, inservice director, or workshop leader needs to explain how a suggested, or even approved program is supposed to work, and why. These criteria are the result of my more than 35 years in education, practicing what I preach in this program. Trust me, you will not find these criteria anywhere else on the Internet. It only costs $1.00 more for either the download version or the CD version. Try it. You will surely agree it is a buck well spent.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
