What do we want students to learn and perform? How can we make sure they learn? What can we do if they are or are not learning? Education is a target-oriented, conscious and organized process that requires deliberation, analysis of educational standards and outcomes, determination of education evidence and methods, and ensuring the students learn and perform as required. This can be understood by means of student-focused planning.
This program introduces trainees to the knowledge and skills for standardized educational planning based on deliberation, backward and comprehension-based planning principles. Trainees will work in homogeneous groups based on their specialty, and plan based on their students’ grades using Common Core State Standards (CCSS), and New Generation Science Standards (NGSS) as examples for current standards used by many international schools.
