A good instructional objective has performance, condition and criterion component. Consider the following instructional objective: "Given ten items (variety of magnet and non-magnetic) students will be able to sort items into two categories with 80% accuracy." Which one of the following option matches column - I to that of II? (Column - I lists various components of an instructional objective)Column-I Column-II (i) Performance component (A) Given 10 items (ii) Condition component (B) 80% accuracy (iii) Criterion component (C) Sorting of items
(i) - (C) (ii) - (A) (iii) - (B)
The performance component of an instructional objective names the observable behaviour the student must actually perform — here that behaviour is sorting the items into two categories, so the performance component (i) matches (C) Sorting of items.
The condition component states the materials or circumstances under which the performance is carried out — here the students are given ten items, a mix of magnetic and non-magnetic ones, so the condition component (ii) matches (A) Given 10 items.
The criterion component specifies the standard that decides whether the performance is acceptable — here that standard is 80% accuracy, so the criterion component (iii) matches (B) 80% accuracy.
Hence, the correct matching is (i) - (C), (ii) - (A), (iii) - (B).
