“The biggest obstacleto school changeis our memories.”
-- Dr. Allen Glenn
Obstacles

Creating schools for the 21st Century requires less time looking in the rearview mirror and more vision anticipating the road ahead.
Teaching has been an activity undertaken behind closed doors between moderately consenting participants.
Technology enables students, teachers, and administrators to reach out beyond the school building.
Innovative classrooms are not defined by fixed places but by their spirit of curiosity and collaboration among students, teachers, and others in a true learning community.
(Edutopia)
Technology Integration

“When thinking about schools for the 21st century, two fundamental characteristics come to mind: that learning is contextual; and that school is a process, not a place.”
--David Thornburg

Project-Based Learning
Keep the end result in mind, and don’t get lost in the details.
Process vs. Product – The learning that happens during the process should aid in the student’s metacognition.
Curriculum fueled and standards based.
Asks a question or poses a problem that ALL students can answer.
Allows students to investigate issues and topics in real-world problems with concrete, hands-on experiences.
Fosters abstract, intellectual tasks to explore complex issues.
![Page 8: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Inquiry Learning
Dynamic process that uses questioning to actively involve students in their own learning
Engages students in answering questions, solving real-world problems, confronting issues or exploring personal interests
Facilitate learning by immersing students in investigative processes, such as the Big6 research process.
![Page 9: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Big6: An Information Problem Solving Process
1. Task Definition1.1 Define the information problem. 1.2 Identify information needed in order to complete the task (to solve the information problem).
2. Information Seeking Strategies2.1 Determine the range of possible sources (brainstorm).
2.2 Evaluate the different possible sources to determine priorities (select the best sources).
3. Location and Access3.1 Locate sources (intellectually and physically). 3.2 Find information within sources.
![Page 10: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Big 6: An Information Problem Solving Process
4. Use of Information4.1 Engage (e.g. read, hear, view, touch) the information in a source. 4.2 Extract relevant information from a source.
5. Synthesis5.1 Organize information from multiple sources 5.2 Present the information
6. Evaluation6.1 Judge the product (effectiveness) 6.2 Judge the information problem-solving process (efficiency).

Collaboration Involves
Two or more equal partners who have the following attributes:Complementary skillsCommon purpose and performance goalsMutually accountable
Creating a lesson or unit of study to meet the following:Curricular standards Technology standardsInformation literacy standards
![Page 12: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Collaboration
There are benefits to teachers who collaborate.
Apply individual talent and knowledge to reach objectives
Work in a climate of trust
Feel a sense of ownership
Commit to goals you helped establish
Work together to resolve conflict quickly and constructively
Pull from a larger pool of ideas to accomplish more in less time
![Page 13: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Collaboration There are benefits to students when teachers collaborate.
Teaching moves from directing to guiding.
The classroom environment becomes less competitive.
Less reliance on rules and more on guidelines
More content application and less lecture
More diversity and flexibility
Increased active learning
Fewer isolated decisions and more involvement of others
Focus on process rather than results

Start With the End in Mind…
Stages in the Backward Design Process
Identify desired results.
Determine acceptable evidence.
Plan learning experiences and instruction.
![Page 18: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Predictable Concerns This approach takes too much time. I have too much content to cover.
I am being held accountable for the PSSA, the SAT or AP tests.
I am a “skills” teacher, and students need to master the basics first.
This approach is too demanding. I couldn’t possibly do this for everything I teach.
I already have a textbook that provides structure and assessment.
I don’t think this will work with my content area.
I teach content that only has “right” answers.
I’d like to teach this way, but we don’t have time to ask important questions. We just state the information and move on.
![Page 19: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Stage 1: Identify Desired ResultsConsider:
Goals Established content standards Curriculum expectations Potential for student engagement Potential for professional collaboration
What should students know, understand, and be able to do?
Why is it important that I teach this?
How will this move my students forward?
What are the enduring understandings that are essential for students to take away from this experience?
![Page 20: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Enduring Understandings
What do we want students to understand and be able to use several years from now, after they have forgotten the details?
Provides a “conceptual lens” for prioritizing content
Serves as an organizer for connecting important facts, skills and actions
Transfers to other contexts
Have lasting value beyond the classroom
Reside at the heart of the discipline and involve “doing” the subject
Require uncoverage of abstract or often misunderstood ideas
Offer potential for engaging students
![Page 22: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Evaluating Enduring Understandings
In an economy, price is a function of supply and demand.
The price of a long-distance phone call has declined during the past decade.
Statistical analysis and data display often reveal patterns that may not be obvious.
Correlation does not ensure causality.
Effective readers use specific strategies to help them better understand the text.
Do not cup your hands when swimming freestyle.

Essential Questions
As guides for the unit, they…
Go to the heart of the discipline
Recur naturally through one’s learning in the history of a field
Provided subject and topic specific doorways to enduring understandings
Have no obvious “right” answer
Are deliberately framed to provoke and sustain student interest

To what extent is the entire unit coherent, with the elements of all three stages aligned?
![Page 42: Make TIME for Instructional Planning](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062503/58efd8ab1a28ab295b8b4591/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Someone who understands…
Think about your learning process. When you are trying to learn something new such as playing golf, making a web page, speaking a foreign language, playing chess, instructional planning or losing weight, how you determine when you truly understand?
In regards to instructional planning, what do you need to help you gain a full understanding?
