These students are thrilled because they have come to understand and have ownership in their learning. This is our goal, to help our students be happy in their learning.




ACTIVITY:

1. You have now gained all the tools you need to create a unit designed to help your students move beyond knowing and really understand the content of your course. Here I am asking you to put it all together. Design a complete unit using the Teaching For Understanding framework. Develop your generative topic, understanding goals, performances of understanding, and ongoing assessment. Be sure to return to your designs and reflections as a guide in the development of your unit. Return to any of the sections of Teaching for Understanding 07 or Teaching For Understanding: Ongoing Assessment for any topic you may need to review.

REFLECTION:

1. Look at your completed unit and reflect on how this new design will increase your student's understanding, taking them beyond knowing.
