LESSON GOALS AND LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Lesson goal: At the completion of this module, the student will be able to articulate, plan,
and apply a method of learning based on their student’s needs in accordance with current
adult education theory.
• Behavioral learning
• Cognitive learning
• Experiential learning
KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER
Knowledge
Skills
Attitudes
Bloom’s Taxonomy
• Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives (first published in 1956) formulated
hierarchies in three domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor.
• In 2007, Robert Marzano and John Kendall published The New Taxonomy of
Educational Objectives
• Creating measurable goals and objectives provides the expectations and standards that are being
measured against
• Different approaches to developing the Goals and Objectives
• BCC model
• Behavior: Identify the expected observable action to demonstrate learning
• Criteria: How well, and to what standard with the student be held?
• In accordance with the IFU is always recommended for products
• This helps us inline with ISO 13485 (currently only in EMEA)
• ABCD model
• Audience: Identify and describe the learner
• Behavior: Identify the expected observable action to demonstrate
learning
• Conditions: Describe the relevant conditions (location, type of
scenario)
• Degree: How well, and to what standard with the student be
held?
Learning transfer
• The ability to solve problems in a new context, based on another scenario of
previous experience
• This is the driving principle of all training activities, developing knowledge, and
skills to a level that transfer occurs
METHODS OF LEARNING
Expert Blind Spot: Mastery of an area of knowledge which can make it difficult for the
expert to convey information to a novice.
• Mastery moves knowledge to the unconscious mind
• Experts can become consciously unaware of interim steps in a sequence, or problem
solving steps that make them more efficient
• Novices then often meet with failure as they
do not know the proper sequence, or
knowledge required to accomplish a task

METHODS OF LEARNING
• Allow for adequate time to encode info from short term to long term memory
• Instructing a 4 hour class in 1 hour isn’t going to be effective, regardless of the tools used

METHODS OF LEARNING
Mental Models learning: Using case studies, theoretical problems, and discussion to
develop analysis, communication, and decision making skills
Thoughts?
Options
• Discuss solution pathways
• Weigh the pro/cons and best practices
• Possible solutions
Goal state • Discuss one, or more
outcomes
METHODS OF LEARNING
Simulated reality learning: Developing professional judgement through simulated
scenarios, conversations, and interactions in a non-threatening environment (Example:
Role-plays).
• First define what the precise intended outcomes are for the role-play
• Starts with Task Analysis during the lesson planning
• To articulate the indications, contraindications, and precautions of a device
• To practice overcoming common objections around a device
• To rehearse answering questions around a device
METHODS OF LEARNING
Experiential learning: The process of learning through experience, more specifically
defined as learning through reflection on doing.(Example: ride-alongs)
• Only by reflecting on the experience can you then make it relevant to you
• Raises student awareness of:
• Cultural identity: How do they view sales reps? How do they view your company?
• Professional identity: Do they see you as a consultant, or a sales person?
• Social expectations: Are you waiting in the Doctor’s lounge before a case? Is that acceptable?
