"Anyone who wants to become a teacher should get this. It is a great tutorial on writing objectives, but it is also a wonderful resource that covers the info new teachers really need to have.

You write very well and take the time to explain so that I understand much better. One of the best resources for an aspiring teacher (elementary) out there. Cassandra, Chicago."

"This is good stuff. You are so right about teachers needing to communicate clearly and effectively. Your program is a godsend."

"You have created a terrific program. It works just the way you describe on your website. As an education major, I can honestly say it's a refreshing break from a lot of what is out there. You write as though we have brains, and I like that. Thank you. Lisa, New York."

"We bought this for corporate training purposes to help our trainers learn how to write clearly and communicate effectively. Your program, although aimed at the K-12 area, is unsurpassed for helping anyone learn how to write and communicate effectively. Highly recommended. Larry, Vancouver, BC."

"Dear Dr. Kizlik,

This is a program that works just as you said. It's like a whole course on some really important stuff for teachers to know. I'm just starting out and your program has made a world of difference."

"Somewhere on the Internet I read a glowing review of your program and decided to purchase it. You have provided a truly professional resource that actually works as it is described. I am a new teacher, and never really learned this skill in my college courses. I only wish I had your program when I first began my teacher preparation. Many thanks."

"I have used other programs to learn how to write learning objectives, but until I got yours, I never really understood the underlying reasons and none of the others even comes close to yours in terms of teaching the skills. Your program is a wonderful addition to my skills toolbox. In addition, the sections on lesson planning and selecting instructional programs are gems. Thanks for developing this program."

"Your wonderful program is the gold standard for learning how to write learning objectives with a simply great explanation of the lesson planning process. Our professor was a former student of yours, and it shows. Thank you so much."

"Dr. Kizlik:

Your program on how to write learning objectives with the sections on lesson planning and selecting instructional programs is really great. I almost never comment on Internet purchases, but for this I must make an exception. You explain in a thorough way with an economy of words the background for these skills and the part on how to write learning objectives develops the skill. As an education major, your program is an important part of my program. Thanks, and thanks for keeping the price affordable."

"Your program should be required for all education majors, regardless of the subject or level they want to teach. It is clear, practical, and very professional."

"I just ordered and have begun to use the new program on Lesson Planning - from writing objectives to selecting instructional programs. Wow! I want to thank you so much for this. You have opened my eyes to some important concepts, and your program is easy to follow, but it teaches how to write and communicate like a professional teacher. Worth every penny."

"Dear Dr. Kizlik,

 I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know about an observation I had in my classroom this past week. I had a set of behavioral objectives modeled after your How To Write Learning Objectives program I purchased a few months ago. As I have just recently begun teaching in my mid 40's, I often times feel that I am not near as effective as many of my colleagues in the same age group who have had twenty or so years to practice their craft. I was tickled when the administrator ranted and raved about my lesson, how the formative assessment was built into the lesson plan and how she wished she could "bottle it," as many teachers do not practice this. Even those who have been in the profession for 20 or so years it seems. You can be sure I will bring news of your program with me to the post observation meeting.

 Thanks so much from the new kid in the classroom. Maryann, Dayton, OH"

"Thank you so very much for creating this program. At last, I "get it." You are so right about learning objectives, their importance and structure. I now have a new skill that should serve me well."

"I ordered the version with the criteria for selection of instructional programs. All I can say is it was an extra dollar well spent. You have a wonderful way of explaining things without being wordy. The info on how to write objectives is the best I've seen."

"The best program I've seen for this skill. Nothing on the Internet comes close. I wish I'd had a class with you. Thanks much."

"Your program makes so much sense. What a breath of fresh air in helping me both understand the rationale for, as well as build real skill in developing learning objectives. A value by any measure."

"I can't thank you enough for this program that teaches how to write learning objectives. It is one of the core, fundamental skills that all teachers need. Your program is the best!"

"This is absolutely one of the best self instructional programs I've ever bought. You have a way of guiding the learner through from basic understanding to real skill in this important area of teacher competency. Thank you so much for a wonderful product."

"Dear. R.J. Kizlik,

My instructor recently allowed me to utilize your CD on How to Write Learning Objectives. He had purchased several copies to aid students with writing behavioral objectives. I just wanted to let you know how beneficial this information was to me. Thanks for your product."

"Solid, solid, solid. Well-written, practical, and most of all, it teaches the user how to really express instructional intent in clear, unambiguous language. An excellent value. Thanks."

"The step-by-step approach of this program is an ideal blend of theory and practice. I am in the medical field and have found the principles, exercises, and format extremely useful and the program is easily generalized to non-education topics. Five stars!"

"Thank you for making this program available. It will be part of my professional toolbox for years to come. I really learned a lot and developed a new skill."

"I thought I knew about writing learning objectives. Your program opened my eyes and provided a sound foundation as well as excellent practice. Thanks for a great addition to professional resources."

"Thanks for making such a useful program available for a reasonable price. I followed directions and was able to download it with ease. Everything works just as you said. Even two weeks after finishing it, I'm still seeing new applications for my own growth. The skills are so fundamental to teaching. Thank you so much for developing this."

"The step by step format allows me to write perfect objectives for just about anything."

"One of the best investments I've made in my education. You explained everything and guided me through the parts. I now feel confident that I can compose learning objectives that actually meet professional standards."

"Your program is part of my course syllabus. I bought it the first day of classes, and I have found it to be invaluable. There is such a wealth of information in it that I recommend it to anyone wanting to learn how to write and think clearly about educational outcomes and curriculum."

"This is a really neat program. It works exactly as described. Easy to install and you will find many examples and applications. As a bonus, the program is a valuable resource for learning how to express yourself clearly and unambiguously. Thanks for a great resource for teachers and students."

"You have prepared a scholarly piece of work that synthesizes a variety of ideas into a manageable framework. Your calculated sequence, which gradually delivers more complex information, presents the content in a no nonsense style. I particularly liked your examples (non-examples!) ... "

"You have done a TERRIFIC job in laying out an all-too-forgotten set of skills that are critical to the success of students and their teachers. I really like it!!! Thanks for including verb definitions, specialized verbs (psychomotor and content-specific), sample learning activities, practice exercises, and answer keys. I especially liked how you took a SSS benchmark and broke it down into instructional objectives. All are very helpful."

"A great program that provides both theory and practice. One cannot help but improve as a result of your program. It worked flawlessly. Highly recommended."

"I wish I had this when I started my teacher program. It really works and it helped me think in a professional way about how to express my intentions for student learning. Great examples of how to do this for any subject, and an excellent value."
