Instructional objectives should guide the course of learning.  Instructional materials should introduce the learning to students and present the key concepts students will need to know to master the objectives.

The activities should allow learners to practice and apply their new learning in preparation for assessment.  If the activities do not align, students may not have the core knowledge and competencies to effectively complete the activities.

Assessments must directly reflect the learning objectives, and an aligned assessment will reflect the instructional materials and learning experiences.

Without alignment, learners cannot be expected to fulfill objectives, and learners may also be asked to complete tasks they may not be prepared for.

Writing instructional objectives allows for you to begin with the end in mind.  As you write learning objectives, you consider what will the learner be able to do as they master a lesson, a unit or module, or an entire course.  A well-written objective will identify what students will learn, the level at which they will learn it, an observable behavior, and additional criterion including learning conditions or other variables.
