Course Description:

Don't Just Hope, Plan: Using Understanding by Design to Create Quality Instruction Developed by nationally recognized educators Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe, Understanding by Design (UbD) is a structure that works within the standards-driven curriculum to help teachers clarify learning goals, devise revealing assessments of student understanding, and craft effective and engaging learning activities. UbD is based on the idea that the primary goal of education should be the development and deepening of student understanding through the completion of complex and authentic tasks. Wiggins and McTighe also suggest that the most effective way to plan instruction and assessment is to begin �with the end in mind.� By focusing first on what students should learn rather than what students should do, teachers who use UbD can avoid assigning �busy work� and help insure that quality learning remains centered on standards. Join Glenn as he explains the steps necessary to complete your first UbD unit. Be sure to bring classroom materials and resources that you can use to create your unit.
