How do I create or import objectives (standards)?

Aligning each activity with the appropriate objectives allows for tracking of students' competency mastery based on performance and allows for focused interventions.

From the homepage select the Editor icon located on the course that needs activities aligned with objectives.

Create a new activity or select an activity to align objectives with.

Click the Edit icon next to that activity.

1. Select the Objectives tab.
2. Select the objectives that need to be aligned with this activity.
3. Use the dropdown to limit the displayed objectives to those that are created in the course, to those inherited from the activity's parent folder (if available), or to only the selected objectives. Any selected objective remains in the list for all three settings.
4. Use the "Filter" field to search objectives for words and phrases.
5. Use the "Groups" dropdown at the bottom of the editor to make edits to objective alignment for only specified groups.
6. Click Save.
