Learning objectives

itslearning allows you to import available learning objectives or define your own - either via the local learning objective repository or manually creating them through the itslearning interface. The above example is taken from the National Curriculum for England. The learning objectives in the English National Curriculum can be imported into courses in itslearning. If you import a set of learning objectives, you can still edit and adapt them to your own learning. Learning objectives are not enabled by default in courses and you have to enable them in the course settings (see How-tos below).

When a learning objective is added to an element in itslearning it is visible at the top of the element in this format:

The learner can then look up the learning objective and see what is expected from the particular assignment, test, discussion or similar.

Where do the learning objectives appear?

In itslearning the learning objectives appear:

• in the working folder under the learning objectives tab.
• when you add a new learning tool you are allowed to connect learning objectives to the tool.
• in an active learning tool.
• in the lesson planner.
