Backward Design Process
Stage 1: Identify Desired ResultsStage 2: Determine Acceptable EvidenceStage 3: Plan Learning Experiences and
Instruction

Identify Desired Results• What should students know,
understand, and be able to do?
Stage 1:
WorthBeing familiar
with
Important to know and do
“Enduring”
Understanding

“Enduring” Understanding
• What are the “Big Ideas” and “Essential Questions” of the project, unit, or lesson?
• What key knowledge and skills will the students acquire as a result of this unit?
• Begin with the end in mind.
Stage 1:

Determine Acceptable Evidence
• Think like an assessor and gather evidence at several points.
• Traditional assessments used for essential knowledge and skills needed for the culminating performance.

Assessment Types
Traditional quizzes and tests - paper/pencil - selected response - constructed response
Performance tasks and projects - open-ended - complex - authentic
Stage 2:

Performance tasks & projects
• Make grading criteria known to students
• Reduce teacher subjectivity• Maintain focus on content,
performance standards, and student work
Stage 2:
Why Rubrics?

Rubrics“Many rubrics describe a progression of
skill from novice to expert. Our quest, however, is not for a rubric of skill development but for a rubric that combines insight and performance related to understanding of ideas and meaning.”
Stage 2:
(Wiggins and McTighe)

Plan Learning Experiences and
Instruction• Identify the facts, concepts,
principles, and the procedures the students will need in order to complete performance task or project.
• Identify content for direct teaching, coaching, and constructivist teaching.
• Select activities, materials, and resources.

Learning Activities: WHERETO
W= help students know where the unit is going?
H = hook all students and hold their interest?E = equip students, explore the issues, and
experience the ideas?R = provide opportunities to rethink and
revise?E = allow students to exhibit their
understanding and evaluate their work?T = be tailored to the different needs,
interests, and abilities of learners?O = be organized to maximize initial and
sustained engagement as well as effective learning?
Stage 3:
What learning experiences and instruction will enable students to achieve the desired results? How will the design —
