I will be borrowing your use of the term "learning targets." Other terms (like standards, objectives, competencies) are used so broadly that people might assume I mean one thing when I actually mean another. With the term "learning target," I can define exactly what I mean in the syllabus and (hopefully) avoid confusion

I’m still not sure I understand the difference between level-lesson objectives and learning targets, with respect to grading. For example, consider a unit on polynomials with a standard as the following: “I can add, subtract, multiply, and divide polynomials.” This standard would consist of several lesson-level objectives e.g. let’s say six. If I’m assessing a student on this standard aren’t I essentially assessing them on the objectives that make it up?
