This presentation focuses on developing effective curricula that emphasize deep learning through clear understanding and performances of understanding in multiple dimensions. Participants will learn to clarify and revise learning goals centered on big ideas, design coherent and accessible learning activities, and leverage readings and technology to enhance understanding. The session includes strategies for active learning, critical thinking, and using multiple intelligences to engage learners, while providing opportunities for assessment, feedback, and collaboration with colleagues to enrich educational practices.

Developing Curriculum for Deep LearningHow is understanding developed? Performances of Understandingusing multiple intelligences 3 November 2005
Goals for today • Understand how to clarify/revise goals so they really focus on understanding big ideas in multiple dimensions • Understand how to design performances that help learners ramp up their understanding of target goals through a coherent, challenging, accessible sequence of activities: introductory, guided, culminating • Understand how to use readings, rubric, Shamsa’s case, classmates’ projects to reflect on your own understanding and request and provide constructive feedback • Understand how to apply new technologies to foster understanding
Activities for today • Analyze how to revise goals to focus on understanding • Discuss readings to clarify criteria for effective learning activities/performances of understanding • Consult about your own project: use the rubric to assess goals and begin to plan learning activities • Colleagues share useful resources • Mid-course assessment
Effective Learning Activities • Teaching for Understanding: Performances of Understanding • Develop and demonstrate understanding of target goals • Require active learning and creative thinking • Build through coherent, challenging, accessible performances: introductory, guided, culminating • Include a rich range of entry points, level of difficulty, multiple intelligences • Provide multiple opportunities for assessment and feedback
Using technologies to enrich Performances of UnderstandingMultiple Intelligences TheoryUniversal DesignMindtools • Represent ideas in multiple ways to engage learners • Allow learners to use multiple intelligences to access, analyze, and express information and ideas • Enable learners to choose different pathways through material they are studying • Provide scaffolding that learners can select and tailor to serve their needs • Offer mindtools to engage and facilitate critical thinking and higher order thinking
Consult on your projects • How do your goals look in relation to the rubric? • Plan learning activities with the rubric criteria in mind • How might you use technologies to enrich performances of understanding?
