The purpose of this study is to develop unit objectives in the view of application and systematic approach, reflecting the main features of the 7th curriculum revision which include process-oriented approach (POA). First, this study suggests that it is a better way to use the traditional objectives statements flexibly than not to use them. Next, objectives are stated mainly with contents and learner’s behaviors. But, this statement doesn't fully cover the features of POA. So, one alternative way is that content and behavior domains include the process-related factors characterized as procedure (or task) and learner-centeredness (or humanism). Finally, to suggest the factors of communicative unit objectives, all the objectives in recently and widely used course books are analyzed on the basis of Valette’s taxomony. In this analysis, it is known that content domain with language, socio-linguistics and communicative parts includes the factors such as fluency, authenticity, topic, activity, task, and behavior domain with cognitive and psycho- motor parts emphasizes and reflects creative expression and humanism (or affective factors).
