Psychomotor Objectives

       Psychomotor objectives focus on physical and kinesthetic skills (including keyboarding, using technical instruments and other skills).

       This domain is characterized by progressive levels of behaviors from observation to mastery of a physical skill.

Combination Model - Plans using more than one of the above.

Graffiti Model - Graffiti is a cooperative learning structure in which students are asked to give written responses to questions posed by the teacher. The graffiti model is an excellent way to check for understanding, to evaluate instruction, or to do an informal pre-assessment. See Details

Holistic Learning Model - These plans reflect varied modalities and learning domains -- cognitive [thinking], affective [feeling], and psychomotor or physical [digital, haptic, tactile, kinesthetic].

Hunter Model - A highly structured format for plans devised using the classic, repetitive lesson model developed by the late Madeline Hunter.

Jigsaw Model - Originally, the jigsaw concept was developed in the 1960's to facilitate racial integration as students were required to work collaboratively on projects.  As an educational model it falls into the Social Family of methods. There are several variations of this model - more samples will be forthcoming. Link - to the 'Official" Jigsaw Site. 

Multiple Intelligences - MI plans utilize, or are based on, those intelligences described in the work of Howard Gardner.

Problem Solving Model - These plans reflect general rules for developing skills used in solving problems. In this process the teacher develops a problem; carefully accesses skills needed to solve the problem; and creates conditions and/or parameters that act as guidelines for products or solutions. These same conditions and parameters also serve as evaluation and assessment criteria.
