SPECIAL EVENTS

Curriculum

This section will explore my current understandings of curriculum and the ways in which they have changed over time. It will also look at the role of standards and various models of teaching, including backwards design, differentiation of curriculum, standards-based, and including passions and generative topics in curriculum development. ​

Teacher's Note: Originally the section "Unit Overview" was listed under this section, but I moved it under the "Reflections" tab because it felt better suited to live there as a reflection of where I am in my understandings of developing unit plans rather than a reflection of my understandings of what they are meant to do, as the rest of the section reflects.

Introduction

What is your definition of curriculum

What do you want readers to take away after reading this section - overall

Revisit what you wrote for class on Oct 17th. (don’t have to reference this or a change in your thoughts) 

How has that changed? What do you believe students need to know and/or be able to do in your subject area, at your level (that you will be teaching next semester or that you plan to teach)?

Standards

What are they?

How might one draw and use standards?

How will you draw on and use standards to improve your teaching?

Models of Teaching 

What models do you plan to use? 

What will you take from: 

  • backwards design

  • differentiation of curriculum 

  • standards-based/ "covering" the Common Core

  • including passions, an organization of generative topics
