Workshop Overview
Teaching in the standards-based classroom requires more than simply knowing the standards. To truly focus on standards, teachers must understand key elements of a standards-based learning environment—planning, instruction, assessment, and feedback.
This workshop offers a thoughtful, logical approach to designing and delivering high-quality learning experiences that help students master knowledge and skills outlined in standards. Participants will leave with insights, strategies, and a wealth of resources to use in their own classrooms.
Learning Outcomes
Review the rationale and processes for prioritizing standards and developing proficiency scales.
Learn methods for creating yearlong plans for teaching the standards.
Examine eight steps for developing cohesive instructional cycles.
Learn how to create or refine assessments for monitoring progress toward mastery of standards.
Examine ideas for using proficiency scales to communicate performance of standards.
