Common Problems to Avoid
Most people have difficulty writing a "behavioral objective." The purpose of a behavioral objective is to allow the course participant to measure an objective to see if it has been achieved. A behavioral verb is used to make an objective measurable, such as: describe, list, discuss, and define. A partial list of these verbs are listed on the application and are available for download from this site (MS Word format).
