Compare the English Lesson Plan
and Our book
* Similarity
1) Students’ background knowledge (學生學習條件分析)
= students’ need analysis => students’ background
information for identifying a gap between what students
are able to do and what they need to be able to do
2) Concrete Aim (具體目標) = Objectives
=> more specific and concrete description of purpose
(be able to…)
Compare the English Lesson Plan
and Our book
* Difference:
1)
Aim:
◎Our
book: language skill domain
◎ Teaching
a)
Plan:
Teaching Aim: for teachers
* Unit Aim: three domains: cognitive, affective,
and psychomotor (Bloom, 1956)
b)
Learning Aim: for students
Bloom’s three teaching domain
1. Cognitive domain: understanding of knowledge
2. Affective domain: motivation, interests, cultural
understanding…
3. Psychomotor domain: practice (listening,
speaking, reading, and writing)
=> language outcome (cognitive & psychomotor )
non-language outcomes (affective)
Compare the English Lesson Plan
and Our book
* Difference:
◎ Ability
Index (能力指標): Grade 1-9 Curriculum Policy
=> To know whether the aim and concrete
objectives can let students achieve the specific
ability no matter in language skills, learning
interest and approaches, and culture and
custom
Compare the English Lesson Plan
and Our book
Ex: reading parts/ learning interest / culture and custom
1. 3-2-5 To be able to understand the main point of the
text
2. 6-2-6 To use reference books (dictionary) to
understand the content actively
3. 7-2-3 To be able to realize and respect different
culture and custom from multiple cultural viewpoints
Conclusion
 Curriculum design should be followed
educational policy: Grade 1-9 Curriculum
(Ability Index)
 Three domains of aims should be included:
cognitive, affective, and psychomotor
 The purpose of curriculum design is to let
students have both of language outcomes
and non-language outcomes.
