The organization of educational objectives plays an important role in
curriculum development process, since it enables the sequencing of
educational experiences. The main goal of this paper is to propose a
framework for the formal representation of educational objectives, which
enables the evaluation of organization of educational objectives. The model
is based on domain ontology, Bloom’s taxonomy and objectives organization in
the competence-based knowledge space. The model is verified on the case study
that evaluates the students‘ achievements in Chemistry field Solutions by
conducting an informal knowledge test on the group of 199 14-year-old
students of primary schools in the Republic of Serbia. The results obtained
from the case study clearly indicate the necessity for including assessment
of students‘ achievements in the organization of educational objectives. The
proposed model enables evaluation of organization of educational objectives
which could be further used for an iterative refinement of the organization
of educational objectives.
