EDUCATIONAL AIMS
INTRODUCTION
AIM is a predetermined goal, which inspires individual to attain it through
appropriate activities. As education is a planned and purposeful activity, the aims are
necessary in giving direction to the education.

the human. World except in end through the free activities of the
individual men and women and that educational practices must be
shaped to accord the truth.
SOCIAL AIMS
As against the individual aim, there is the social aim of education. The individual is
endowed with a social nature, he is social by instinct. An individual seems everywhere and
always to be caught up in intricate web of social relations. The individual being a social
animal will develop through special contact.
According to JOHN DEWEY – social aim in education should make such individual to
understand and appreciate the environment which he lives.
The social aim of education has been stressed upon the following:
1. Education means the culture which every generation
purposefully gives to its successor in order to qualify, to keep
and to improve the level attained – BROWN FJ
2. The teacher’s aim is not to educate his pupils in the abstract,
but for life in any existing society – BRUEBAKER JS
3. Education is the process of reconstruction of experience, gives
more socialized value through the medium of increased social
efficiency – DEWEY
4. True education involves three things:
- A sincere appreciation of one’s own country

EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
Education is a process, the chief goal of which is to bring about change in human
behavior. Thus the objectives are desirable outcomes of intended actions through the mode
of education

DEFINITION
“The result sought by the learner at the end of the educational programe, i.e. what
students should be able to do at the end of a learning period, that they could not do before
hand” – JJ Guilbert.
Objectives are the behaviors to be displayed by the learner. Aims are for the teacher and
objectives are for the learners to achieve through the support and guidance of the teacher.
A systematic organization of objectives i.e. Taxonomy into three domains to help teachers
in precise formulation and evaluates the results of a system of education

5. Synthesis Synthesize
6. Evaluation Evaluate
In general, the use of computers in education through CAL has been sporadic a great deal
of effort was expended with little general impact. Many of those academics that took part in
that earlier crusade are now cynical about the effectiveness of computers in teaching.
There are still good reasons to use CAL rather than Internet based technologies. CAL is run
either straight from a CD or floppy disk drive, or over a local network so the constraint of the
internet - slow download times for multimedia materials may not apply. This, coupled with
the fact that CAL technology has been around a bit longer, means that CAL packages have
the potential to offer more advanced, interactive, multimedia learning experiences than it is
currently reasonable to expect from the Web. This has been changing as Web technologies
develop and bandwidths improve but there are currently many things that can only be
achieved with CAL rather than the Web and CAL has been an integral part of the curriculum
in many departments at Warwick for some time.
Computer-assisted learning (CAL) is a powerful solution to many of the issues that confront
teachers in higher education--the need to innovate in course delivery and to accommodate
increasing numbers of students, sometimes at physically distant sites, without an associated
13
increase in resources. On-line, interactive CAL, delivered via the World Wide Web (WWW),
is a dynamic open learning resource that has many advantages over pre-authored, fixed
platform CAL packages. In addition to their advantages for students, such systems also
provide powerful and flexible tools for course administration.
Computer-assisted learning (CAL) provides perhaps the best opportunity for student self-
guided learning. It is self-paced and self-planned, with the students themselves choosing
their own paths through the mass of information encompassed by the package. Successful
use of such packages will not only increase students' knowledge, but will require them to
develop other important skills, including self-assessment and planning of studies,
information technology skills, creativity, and self-motivation.
Integration into course structures is the most important aspect of CAL in the long term. This
is clearly demonstrated by the positive response to CAL in modules/courses where it forms
a central element of
teaching resources
course administration
assessment
Recent studies at Leicester University indicate that thoughtfully and appropriately applied,
CAL packages offer modest improvements in student academic achievement but significant
resource savings for academic institutions (MacDonald, Z. personal communication). On-
line interactive CAL maximizes the potential gains both for students and for teaching staff.
