The document discusses task analysis and instructional objectives. It defines task analysis as the first step in instructional design used to determine what should be taught by analyzing and articulating expected learner tasks and subtasks. Task analysis is used to determine goals and objectives, define tasks, select outcomes, prioritize tasks, and design assessments. Procedural analysis breaks tasks into steps using flowcharts. Instructional objectives are specific, outcome-based, measurable statements describing anticipated learner behaviors. Objectives relate to cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains and different levels of learning.
