Writing Instructional Objectives
Instructional objectives, including behavioral
objectives, can be written for any of the domains
of instruction
• Cognitive
• Affective
• Psychomotor

The Cognitive Domain
Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain
(started in 1948 and completed in 1956) was one
of the most influential statements about levels of
knowing.
The official title of the book is Taxonomy of
educational objectives: The classification of
educational goals. Handbook I: Cognitive
domain with the text having 4 other authors
(M. Englehart, E. Furst, W. Hill, and D
Krathwohl).

The Cognitive Domain
he major idea of the taxonomy is that what
educators want students to know (and,
therefore, statements of educational objectives)
can be arranged in a hierarchy from less to
more complex.
The taxonomy contains six levels, with
sublevels identified for each.

assumptions, hypotheses,
evidence, or structure of a
statement or question.

Student originates,
integrates, and combines
ideas into a product, plan
or proposal that is new to
him or her.

the cognitive, affective, and
psychomotor domains.

The Cognitive Domain
Evaluation
The student will judge the
effectiveness of writing
objectives using Bloom's
taxonomy.

The Cognitive Domain
In general, research over the last 40 years has
confirmed the taxonomy as a hierarchy with the
exception of the last two levels.
It is uncertain at this time whether synthesis
and evaluation should be reversed (i.e.,
evaluation is less difficult to accomplish than
synthesis) or whether synthesis and evaluation
are at the same level of difficulty but use
different cognitive processes.

I believe the latter is more likely as it relates to the
differences between creative and critical thinking.

The Affective Domain
ReceivingBeing aware of or attending to
something in the environment
RespondingShowing some new behaviors as
a result of experience
ValuingShowing some definite
involvement or commitment

The Affective Domain
Organization
Integrating a new value into
one's general set of values,
giving it some ranking among
one's general priorities.
Characterization
by Value
Acting consistently with the new
value; person is known by the
value.

The Psychomotor Domain
Perception
Process of becoming aware of
objects, qualities, etc by way of
senses. Basic in situation-
interpretation-action chain
leading to motor activity.
SetReadiness for a particular kind
of action or experience; may be
mental, physical or emotional.

domain. Office of Education Project No. 5-85-104. Urbana, IL: University of Illinois.29www.drjayeshpatidar.blogspot.com
The Psychomotor Domain
MechanismLearned response becomes
habitual; learner has achieved
certain confidence and
proficiency or performance.
Guided
Response
Overt behavioral act under
guidance of an instructor, or
following model or set criteria.

The Psychomotor Domain
Adaptation Altering motor activities to
meet demands of problematic
situations.
Complex
Overt
Response
Performance of motor act
considered complex because of
movement pattern required.
31www.drjayeshpatidar.blogspot.com
The Psychomotor Domain
Origination
Creating new motor acts or
ways of manipulating
materials out of skills, abilities
and understandings developed
in the psychomotor area.

Writing Instructional Objectives
While it is possible to write instructional
objectives of all types for each of the three
domains, the vast majority are written for
the cognitive domain.
The major exceptions include preschool,
physical education, and perhaps fine arts
courses such as sculpturing and drama.
