What are the four components of a well-written objective? Why is each component important?
An objective has four components: (1) the action or activity to be undertaken, (2) the target population, (3) an indication of how success will be measured or evaluated, and (4) the time frame in which the objective will be met. Each component is important because they further clarify the program goal, and ultimately lead to a successful intervention. Well-written objectives aid in conducting the components of the program's evaluation plan.
