About this MicroSim

Goal Strategy Outcome Evaluation Rubric is an interactive MicroSim for this health-education textbook.

Evaluate a completed goal-setting scenario's process

Use the controls in the panel below the drawing to interact with the model, then talk through what changed and why. The MicroSim is width-responsive and can be embedded in any course page with the iframe shown above.

Bloom's Taxonomy level: Evaluate
— assess, critique, justify

Lesson Plan

Audience

This MicroSim is designed for Grades 9-12. For the K-3 bands the teacher typically drives the activity on a shared screen; older students can explore the MicroSim independently.

Learning Objective

Evaluate a completed goal-setting scenario's process

This activity targets Bloom's Evaluate
(assess, critique, justify).

Suggested Use (about 10 minutes)

  1. Warm up (2 min). Ask students what they already know about the topic and let one volunteer describe what they see on the screen.
  2. Model it (3 min). Demonstrate the interaction once, thinking aloud so students hear the reasoning behind each choice.
  3. Guided practice (3 min). Invite students to try the interaction and to predict what will happen before they act.
  4. Discuss (2 min). Ask why the result came out the way it did, connecting the on-screen result back to the learning objective above.

Check for Understanding

Have each student (or pair) explain their result in one sentence, using the vocabulary from this chapter. Look for reasoning that matches the Evaluate-level objective rather than a lucky guess.

Specification

The full specification below was extracted from Chapter 14: Health Decision-Making and Goal-Setting.

Type: infographic

**sim-id:** goal-strategy-outcome-rubric<br/>
**Library:** p5.js<br/>
**Status:** Specified

Bloom Taxonomy: Evaluate<br/>
Bloom Taxonomy Verb: assess, critique, justify

Learning objective: Evaluate a completed goal-setting scenario's process
and outcome against a four-criterion rubric (data tracked, strategy
components functioned, goal partially/fully achieved, plan revision
needed), producing a written evaluation.

Purpose: Give learners practice judging goal outcomes on process quality,
not just success/failure, echoing the process-vs-outcome distinction from
the decision-making evaluation earlier in the chapter.

Layout: Left panel: one of three preset four-week goal scenarios (sleep,
physical activity, stress management) presented as a short checkpoint log
(weekly entries with notes). Right panel: four-criterion rubric with a
1-4 rating slider per criterion and a text box for justification.

Interactive elements: Selecting a scenario loads its checkpoint log;
rating each criterion unlocks a "Compare to model evaluation" button that
reveals expert reasoning per criterion, similar in structure to the
conflict-resolution rubric rater from Chapter 13 but applied to goal
outcomes.

Data to display: Three four-week checkpoint logs with realistic mixed
results (partial success, one failed checkpoint, one component that
didn't work as planned) so learners must weigh genuine trade-offs rather
than rate a uniformly successful example.

Color scheme: Neutral gray log panel; gold slider handles; green/red
comparison highlight after reveal.

Implementation: p5.js with DOM text panels and a custom slider-rubric
widget.
