But first, how do I write them? A simple acronym to help you is to write SMART objectives: Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Relevant/Realistic, and Time bound. A simple formula to use, while you become experts in writing objectives is: By [time], [who] will [specific...what you expect to see or accomplish] by [measureable...how much). 1. Process Objectives (OK, this one actually has two types embedded into one) - a. Process Administrative Objectives: these provide the roadmap for getting things done...the steps to pull off your Team Project, or your health promotion program plan (which you will write in HS159). An example of this type of objective is: i. By March 2013, a survey of student attitudes about diet and nutrition (which will provide background information for the presentation), will be distributed to HS25 students and analyzed for similarities and differences among the student responders. b. Process Learning Objectives: these objectives identify new knowledge that must be passed on to individuals before they acquire a new skill, or to bring about a change in attitude. For instance, if we want participants to demonstrate an increase in knowledge about STDs, by listing the top three STDs in the US, we need to provide them the learning opportunity to do so. An example of a process learning objective for this would be: i. By the end of the first week of class, all participants will be provided information on the major STDs in the United States
