    Study Notes

    Articulating a Learning Goal in Scale Format

    • A scale-format learning goal provides clear direction for both the teacher and the student, outlining the instructional target and different levels of understanding and performance.
    • Learners can identify specific elements related to each score value (e.g., 3.0, 2.0) making the learning objectives more tangible.
    • Teachers often prefer to set specific elements for score values 3.0 and 2.0, but leave the score value 4.0 open for individual teacher interpretation.

    Student-Driven Learning Goals

    • Encouraging students to identify their own learning goals within the subject matter enhances their engagement and allows them to explore personal interests.
    • A student's personal goal can be a valuable tool in connecting subject matter with their real-life experiences, even those that may seem unrelated to the curriculum.
    • By having students explore personal goals, educators can demonstrate the broad applicability of subjects like mathematics.
    • A student studying polynomials identified and explained the mathematical formulas used to rate quarterbacks in football.
