Define learning targets from policies and rubrics
Turn an observed behavioral distinction into a specific teaching purpose.
Prerequisites
Reviewed criteria, their applicability, and representative failures or missing behavior.
Steps
- Identify the requirement the learner should satisfy and the condition that makes it applicable.
- Inspect failures and successful neighboring Cases so the objective includes exceptions and protected behavior.
- Select the intended benchmark criteria and scope in the training preparation.
- Inspect whether generated examples teach the distinction through their actual targets. Keep protected assessment Cases separate from learner material.
Object and state changes
Selecting criteria guides the preparation. It does not alter the governed standard or establish that a trained model learned it.
Success criteria
The team can explain what each example teaches and which independent assessment can test the resulting behavior.
Common failure modes
Using a broad score as the learning target; copying protected benchmark Cases into the learner dataset.
