    Writing Clear Learning Objectives

    A clear learning objective states what the learner will be able to do upon completion of a continuing medical
    education activity, in terms of behavioral change. A clear objective identifies the terminal behavior or desired
    outcome of the educational offering.

    When writing objectives, follow these 3 steps:

    Step 1
    Learning objectives begin with the phrase:
    “At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to…”

    Step 2
    Connect step one with an action verb which communicates the performance by the learner. Use
    verbs which describe an action that can be observed and that are measurable within the teaching
    time frame (e.g., via a post-test).

    Sample verbs

    define classify apply analyze arrange assess
    identify compile calculate calculate assemble compare
    label conclude demonstrate categorize compose critique
    list discuss develop classify construct decide
    match describe interpret criticize design determine
    name explain locate compare develop establish
    recall express operate contrast diagnose evaluate

    record identify practice differentiate organize justify
    relate interpret predict distinguish plan measure
    repeat recognize present examine propose rate
    select summarize report outline relate recommend
    state translate use test summarize select

    Step 3
    Conclude with the specifics of what the learner will be doing when demonstrating achievement or
    mastery of the objectives. Stress what the participant will walk away from the activity with.
