A systematic and sequential set of learning experiences designed to achieve the desired outcomes. An educational program usually consists of several related educational events and activities. Extension resources are focused on a serious need or problem. Many people will realize important results, which affect them. Various activities and experiences are conducted in planned sequence and aimed at a common goal.
Objectives form the basis for program evaluation.
If objectives are not specific, or if they are unclear, evaluation is next to impossible. Realistic - It's possible to achieve them. Dated - They are expected to be achieved within a certain time frame. Measurable - We must be able to tell when we have reached them. Describe the content and format, including major topic areas and instructional methods.
