What item is used to test performance-based learning objectives?

• A. Lesson plan
• B. PECL
• C. NAVMC 11432
• D. MCMAP logbook

Answer: (B)

Performance-based learning objectives are tested by observable, demonstrated performance evaluated against defined criteria. A PECL—Performance Evaluation Criteria List—provides the exact rubric, scoring criteria, and pass/fail standards that evaluators use while a learner demonstrates a skill. It lays out the tasks, the conditions under which they must be performed, and the proficiency level required, making it the instrument that directly assesses performance.

A lesson plan guides how instruction is delivered, not how performance is judged. NAVMC 11432 is a form used for administrative training purposes, not for evaluating performance against objective criteria. The MCMAP logbook records training history and progress, but it does not function as the rubric or standard by which performance is judged.
