I will use both by starting a lesson presenting the objective goal, and throughout the lesson telling my students what learnign goals we've achieved thus far. Also, at the end of the lesson gaining feedback from the studens to see what they have learned from the lesson.

Students familiarize themselves with the learning objective througout the lesson being taught.

It is important to make learning objectives explicit , because it gives the students clear communcation of what is expected to be learned.

This looks great for students! I like learning objectives because it gives students a goal and expectation and it helps me to stay on track during the lesson to make sure I reach it.

Why is it important to make learning objectives explicit?
I feel this helps the student identify the reasoning behind a lesson. I've heard student meant, why are we even doing this have the ojective help the students understand the "why" for the for the lesson
How do students participate in SWBAT?
Having the student reiterate the acronym, helps them to be active in their learning. it's not something that the teachers just saying or writing on the board it actually has meaning for the students.
Objectives are specific and measurable, while learning goals may be more broad. How could you use both in your practice?
Explaining the goal and objectives to students prior to starting a lesson or new unit, can help them better understand and prepare for the information that you would like your students to know. Giving them an overall goal and having small objectives to meet that goal could help students be more successful.
