Study Notes
Affective Domain Assessment
- The affective domain is part of a system published in 1965, used for identifying, understanding, and addressing how people learn.
- It describes learning objectives focusing on feelings, tone, emotion, acceptance, or rejection.
Kratwohl's Taxonomy of Affective Domain (1964)
- The taxonomy in the affective domain has a large number of objectives.
- These objectives include interests, attitudes, appreciations, values, and emotional biases.
Taxonomy of Affective Domain (1964) - Descriptions
- Receiving: Being aware of or attending to something in the environment.
- Responding: Showing new behaviors as a result of experience.
- Valuing: Showing definite involvement and commitment.
- Organization: Integrating a new value into one's general values, ranking among general priorities.
- Characterization: Acting consistently with the new value.
Behavioral Words (Examples)
- Receiving: accept, attend, develop, recognize
- Responding: complete, comply, cooperate, discuss, examine, obey, respond
- Valuing: defend, devote, pursue, seek
- Organization: display, order, organize, systematize
- Characterization: internalize, verify
Affective Topics in Educational Literature
- Attitudes, motivation, communication styles, classroom management styles, learning styles
- Use of technology in the classroom, nonverbal communication, interests, predisposition, and self-efficacy.
Importance of Affective Domain
- Tapping the potentials of the affective domain enhances learning, increasing the likelihood of real and authentic learning among students.
Affective Learning Competencies
- Affective desired learning competencies are often stated in the form of instructional objectives.
Instructional Objectives
- Instructional objectives are specific, measurable, short-term, observable student behaviors.
- Objectives are the foundation for building lessons and assessments.
- Objectives act as tools to ensure goals are reached.
- Objectives ensure learning is focused, allowing students and teachers to know what is happening and enabling objective measurement.
Examples of Receiving and Responding
- Receiving: awareness, willingness to hear/receive
- Examples: to differentiate, to accept, to listen (for), to respond to
- Responding: Active participation of students, attends and reacts on phenomenon, willingness to respond
- Examples: to comply with, to follow, to command, to volunteer, to acclaim
Examples of Valuing, Organization, and Characterization
- Valuing: worth or value a person attaches, organizes values, emphasis on comparing, relating, and synthesizing values
- Examples: to relinquish, to subsidize, to support, to debate, to discuss, to theorize, to formulate, to balance, to examine
- Characterization: act consistently, internalized values, concerned with general patterns
- Examples: to revise, to require, to manage, to resolve, shows self-reliance, cooperates, group activities, and displays teamwork
Affective Focal Concepts
- Attitudes: Mental predisposition to act, expressed by evaluating an entity with favor or disfavor.
-
Components of Attitudes:
- Cognitions: Beliefs, theories, expectancies, cause-and-effect beliefs, and perceptions of the focal object.
- Affect: Feelings with respect to the focal object (fear, liking, anger)
- Behavioral Intentions: Goals, aspirations, and expected responses to the attitude object.
- Evaluation: Central component of attitude, imputing goodness or badness to an attitude object.
Why Study Attitudes?
- Attitudes influence how people act and think within social communities.
Motivation
- A reason or reasons for engaging in a particular behavior, especially human behavior.
- Reasons may include basic needs, an object, goal, state of being, or ideal.
Assessment Tools in the Affective Domain
- Self-Report: Most common; requires individuals to account for their attitude/feelings toward a concept/idea of people.
- Rating Scales: Close-ended survey questions representing respondent feedback in a comparative form for specific features/products/services. It's one of the most established question types for online and offline surveys where respondents rate an attribute or feature.
- Variants of the popular multiple-choice question, widely used to gather relative information about a specific topic.
- Benefits: Students understand target/outcomes, focus on performance, specific feedback on strengths/weaknesses with respect to measured targets, learning standards, growth and progress.
- Checklists: Simple items marked as "absent" or "present." Lists tasks, items, or steps and keeps track of progress, ensuring nothing is forgotten.
- Semantic Differential Scales: Assesses individuals' reactions to words, ideas, or concepts with bipolar scales and contrasting adjectives.
- Three Basic Dimensions: Evaluation (goodness/badness of a concept), Potency (strength/intensity of a concept), and Activity (level of energy/dynamism associated with a concept).
- Thurstone Scale: Developed by Louis Leon Thurstone, it measures attitudes using a continuum, determining the position of favorability on a particular issue. Used to assess attitudes about social phenomena and produces quantifiable measures of attitude strength.
- Advantages and Disadvantages of Thurstone and Likert Scale
- Likert Scale: Individuals tick a box to report agreement/disagreement ("strongly agree," "agree," "undecided," "disagree," or "strongly disagree").
