In Practice: Placement of Objectives

From the Rubric

• Incomplete: Objectives are not included in individual learning units. 

• Aligned: Objectives are included in the individual learning units.

• Exemplary: Objectives are consistently placed and easy to locate in each learning unit.

How to Implement

Start each module w/ a Module Overview page including its corresponding objectives. What should learners be able to do by the end of the week/module? Each week/module should get them closer to the successful completion of the summative assessment at the end of the unit.

Import from Commons

Import this Sample Module Overview page from the Canvas Commons. It's a template for a Canvas page that includes a placeholder for the objectives for that module. You can import that page, customize it, and duplicate it to use at the start of each of your modules.
