The idea
The cognitive, general-to-specific approach states a few general goals and illustrates each with a representative sample of indicators, specific behaviors that show the goal has been reached.
In practice
"Understands fractions" is illustrated by comparing, ordering and adding fractions.
Where people slip
It suits long-term goals, though indicators may under-specify them; teachers often plan both goals and short-term objectives.
