Show answer & explanationAnswer & explanation
Correct answer: A. Description of the skill, conditions, and criteria for acceptable performance
A performance-based objective consists of three parts: a description of the desired behavior/skill, the conditions under which it will be performed, and the criteria (standards) for acceptable performance.
Why the other options are wrong
- B. These are teaching methods, not the components of an objective.
- C. These are parts of a lesson presentation, not an objective's structure.
- D. These are laws of learning, unrelated to objective structure.
Performance-Based Objectives
Statements that specify the desired learning outcome, including description, conditions, and criteria for successful performance.
- Description = the skill/behavior expected
- Conditions = circumstances of performance
- Criteria = standard for acceptable results
