Learning Objectives Writing
Write measurable, SMART learning objectives using Bloom's Taxonomy cognitive levels aligned with desired outcomes and assessment strategies.
Overview
This skill enables the creation of clear, measurable learning objectives that guide instructional design and assessment. It encompasses application of Bloom's Taxonomy, SMART criteria, and alignment with assessment strategies to ensure effective learning outcome specification.
Capabilities
Bloom's Taxonomy Application
- Apply cognitive domain levels appropriately
- Use action verbs matched to cognitive levels
- Sequence objectives by complexity
- Address affective and psychomotor domains
- Align objectives with assessment methods
SMART Criteria
- Write Specific objectives
- Ensure Measurability
- Verify Achievability
- Confirm Relevance
- Define Time-bound expectations
Alignment Strategies
- Link objectives to organizational goals
- Connect to assessment methods
- Sequence within curriculum
- Map to competency frameworks
- Ensure instructional alignment
Documentation
- Format objectives consistently
- Organize by module or unit
- Include conditions and criteria
- Document alignment rationale
- Create objective hierarchies
Usage Guidelines
Writing Process
- Identify desired performance outcomes
- Determine appropriate cognitive level
- Select measurable action verbs
- Specify conditions and criteria
- Verify SMART criteria
- Validate alignment
Action Verb Selection
- Remember: list, define, recall, identify
- Understand: explain, summarize, interpret
- Apply: demonstrate, implement, use
- Analyze: compare, differentiate, examine
- Evaluate: critique, assess, judge
- Create: design, develop, construct
Quality Criteria
- One behavior per objective
- Observable and measurable
- Learner-centered focus
- Appropriate level of challenge
- Clear conditions and standards

gsd-tools
Central utility skill for GSD operations. Provides config parsing, slug generation, timestamps, path operations, and orchestrates calls to other specialized skills. Acts as the unified entry point that the original gsd-tools.cjs provided via its lib/ modules (commands, config, core, init).
model-profile-resolution
Resolve model profile (quality/balanced/budget) at orchestration start and map agents to specific models. Enables cost/quality tradeoffs by selecting appropriate AI models for each agent role.
verification-suite
Plan structure validation, phase completeness checks, reference integrity verification, and artifact existence confirmation. Provides the structured verification layer ensuring GSD artifacts are well-formed and complete.
state-management
STATE.md reading, writing, and field-level updates. Provides cross-session state persistence via .planning/STATE.md with structured fields for current task, completed phases, blockers, decisions, and quick tasks.
git-integration
Git commit patterns, formats, and conventions for GSD methodology. Provides atomic commits per task, structured commit messages, planning file commits, branch management, and milestone tag operations.
frontmatter-parsing
YAML frontmatter parsing and manipulation for .planning/ documents. Provides read, write, update, query, and validation operations on frontmatter blocks in GSD markdown artifacts.
