Pedagogies & Objectives

Pedagogies & Objectives

This section reveals how you can link teaching frameworks (Bloom’s, SOLO, and more) to actionable learning objectives—so you can track not just “what” learners do, but “how well” they do it.


Pedagogy: The Framework

A Pedagogy in the LDM is a named approach or methodology (e.g., Bloom’s Taxonomy). You can define up to six levels to reflect the complexity or depth of learning.

Example:

  • Level 1: Remembering

  • Level 2: Understanding

  • Level 6: Creating


Creating a Pedagogy

  1. Navigate to Pedagogies & Objectives tab.

  2. Click “New Pedagogy.”

  3. Enter:

    • Name: A pedagogy name.

    • Type: Bloom’s Taxonomy, Custom, etc.

    • Description: (Optional) Provide a detailed description of the pedagogy.

    • Level Name: Name of level within the pedagogy (create up to 6 levels).

    • Level Verb: Action verb for this level.

    • Level Description: Description of this level.

  4. Click "Save".


Objectives: The Actionable Goals

An Objective is a measurable statement of what learners will achieve. For instance:

  • “Learners will analyze 3 case studies using advanced marketing metrics.”

Creating an Objective

  1. From the Pedagogy Details page, locate the related Objectives list.

  2. Click “New Objective.”

  3. Set:

    • Name: e.g. “Analyze marketing case studies”.

    • Level: Select the level of the objective based on the pedagogy.

    • Description: Provide a detailed description of the learning objective.

    • Learning Pedagogy: Select the associated Learning Pedagogy for this objective.

  4. Click "Save".


Updating & Deleting

  • Pedagogies: Edit or delete from the pedagogy details page.

  • Objectives: Edit or delete from the objective details page.


Assigning Objectives Across the LDM

You can link Objectives to:

  • Curricula, Pathways, Courses, Modules

  • Assessments, Tasks, Resources

  • Rubrics & Criteria

  • Learning Groups

This ensures your entire ecosystem is objective-driven, providing clarity to learners and stakeholders alike.

Pro Tip: Align Objectives with your Rubrics for coherent scoring. If an Objective says “analyze,” your Rubric criteria can measure analysis depth.


Conclusion

We introduced Pedagogies & Objectives, showing you how a well-defined teaching framework transforms random content into a purposeful journey.
