Introduction
•
Miller in 1962 describes a method for writing
the objectives of psychomotor domain.
•
This method has its roots in military science.
So, his behavioural objective and more loaded
with
skill-analysis
.
•
Related to the development of skill and
physical activities.
There are three main elements according to
him:
Indication (Stimulus)
Activation (responses to be made)
Feedback (information of made responses)
Example
At the end of the class students will be able to
Display different activities
Sketch different activities on chart
•
Reflex Movement
is an activity through which
relevant indication appear.
•
Physical abilities
the control objectives is to be
activated.
•
Perceptual abilities
the activation to be
perceive.
•
Skilled Movement
the activation is to be
made.
•
Non-discussive
communication the indication
responses should be adequate feedback.
Limitations
•
It is focus only on psychomotor objective,
cognitive and affective objectives can not be
written by this approach.
•
It also lays stress on action verb rather than
mental process involved in performing action.
•
Training objective can be best written in it
rather than teaching objective.
Robert Miller's approach, originating in military science, emphasizes writing objectives for the psychomotor domain with a focus on skill analysis and physical activities. The method involves three key elements: Indication (Stimulus), Activation (responses), and Feedback. It aims to develop skills and improve performance in activities. However, the approach has limitations as it solely targets psychomotor objectives and places more emphasis on action verbs than the mental processes involved. It is best suited for training objectives rather than teaching objectives.
