Important PointsLearning objectives are the tasks students know or will be able to do at the end of a lesson or unit. Learning objectives are specific and measurable.Learning objectives are referred to by action verbs like recognize, categorize, justify, compare or identify.So the above sentence starting with "categorize" comes under learning objectives.Additional InformationA general objective is bigger and more general than a learning objective. For example, knowing about the earth may become the general objective whereas knowing about different layers of the earth may become specific.Learning competency is considered to be an overall objective of the course, this may indicate the ability of students to apply the knowledge they acquired in the real world like a student learning about fishing through the textbook and fishing in the pond.The learning process is a never-ending phenomenon as a student is a learner forever. The learning process can't be fulfilled or completed by achieving a single objective or competency.
