How global should the goal be?

Should they just be the essential questions or should they go a little deeper for each day/topic?  As long as the students can engage in the activity with a clear purpose in mind to see how the activity is moving toward the learning goal.  it is always good to periodically stop students and ask them to explain why they are completing a particular assignment.   This ensures that they are able to connect the assignment to the objective.
