chapter 6

Chapter 6 was about writing performance objectives. What stood out to me from this chapter is that there are a lot of things to do to write a good performance objective! What I particularly thought was interesting was when it told about specifying objective conditions. As a teacher, I probably need to think more about the conditions for learning that are taking place in my classroom. In particular, the authenticity of the performance context. Sometimes I think that 4th grade is too basic for the assessments to be authentic, but I want to try harder to think of some assessments that I can make more authentic to real life outside of school.
