DISCUSSION 2.1

Learning objectives are tied to content standards and indicate what  the students will be able to do at the end of the lesson.

Example: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.W.5.1a – Introduce a topic  or text clearly, state an opinion, and create an organizational  structure in which ideas are logically grouped to support the  writer’s purpose.

Aligning the goals, learning objectives, instruction, and assessment  is a critical skill for all educators. Given the above learning  objective, discuss an assessment that would measure the desired goal.  Indicate whether it is a formative, summative, formal, or informal  assessment. Support your answer with a peer-reviewed scholarly source.
