Learning Outcomes

It is vital that learning outcomes are set and reviewed throughout the lesson. It will be very difficult for you or your students to know if progress has been made without them.

Any learning outcomes set for a lesson should be differentiated so that all students can make some level of progress. Using Bloom for learning outcomes means that you can have outcomes of varied levels- from understanding right up to evaluating. This way, you're stretching your students up to the highest levels of learning and achievement.
