Instructors should develop sufficient numbers of test items at the appropriate level of evaluation. Limited Knowledge and Proficiency Moderate Knowledge and Proficiency Advanced Knowledge and Proficiency Superior Knowledge and Proficiency KSA 1 2 3 4 Module A 100% Module B 100% Module C 100% Module D 100% The KSA is NOT determined by the verb used in the learning objective, but rather in the context in which the verb is used and the depth of knowledge and skills required. Example: Three KSA levels using the same verb (describe): KSA 1 – Describe three characteristics of metamorphic rocks. (simple recall) KSA 2 – Describe the difference between metamorphic and igneous rocks. (requires cognitive processing to determine the differences in the two rock types) KSA 3 – Describe a model that you might use to represent the relationships that exist within the rock cycle. (requires deep understanding of rock cycle and a determination of how best to represent it) Learner’s Knowledge, Skills and Abilities Indicator Key Terms Description 1 Recall & Reproduction Limited Knowledge and Proficiency • Identifies basic facts and terms about the subject or competency. • Performs simple tasks associated with the competency. Needs to be told or shown how to do most tasks. • Requires close supervision. 2 Skills & Concepts Moderate Knowledge and Proficiency • Identifies relationship of basic facts and states general principles and can determine step-by-step procedures for doing the competency. • Performs most parts of the competency. Needs help only on hardest parts. • Requires limited supervision. 3 Strategic Thinking Advanced Knowledge and Proficiency • Analyzes facts and principles and draws conclusions about the subject to include why and when the competency must be done and why each step is needed. Can predict outcomes. • Performs all parts of the competency. Needs only a spot check of completed work. • Requires little or no direct supervision. 4 Extended Thinking Superior Knowledge and Proficiency • Can evaluate conditions and make appropriate decisions as related to resolving problems. • Performs competency quickly and accurately with no direct supervision and is able to instruct and supervise others. A Attitudes and Motivation Affective Objective • Describes learning objectives that emphasize a feeling tone, an emotion, or a degree of acceptance or rejection. • Objectives vary from simple attention to selected phenomena to complex but internally consistent qualities of character and conscience. • Expressed as interests, attitudes, appreciations, values, and emotional sets or biases.
