Book Synopsis Understanding by Design by : Grant P. Wiggins
Download or read book Understanding by Design written by Grant P. Wiggins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.

It clearly lays out a systematic approach that emphasizes the use of research-based theories, while acknowledging the need to customize the process to accommodate a variety of pedagogical approaches. This thoroughly revised second edition reflects recent advances and changes in the field, adds three new chapters, updates reference charts, job aids, and tips to support practitioners working in a variety of career environments, and speaks more clearly than ever to ID novices and graduate students.
Book Synopsis Design and Implementation of Higher Education Learners' Learning Outcomes (HELLO) by : Barua, Kuntal

This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Higher Education Learners’ Learning Outcomes (HELLO) project offers a comprehensive solution to the challenge of creating comparative metrics of learning outcomes that are valid across various cultures, languages, and higher education institution types. Traditional methods of assessing learning outcomes in higher education have limited institutions' abilities to compare student performance to that of their peers, hindering efforts to improve teaching practices and enhance student learning. This project creates learning outcome measures that are culturally and linguistically appropriate for different types of higher education institutions, enabling institutions to compare student performance to that of their peers as part of efforts to improve teaching practices and enhance student learning. Design and Implementation of Higher Education Learners’ Learning Outcomes (HELLO), edited by Kuntal Barua, Neyara Radwan Mohammed, Virendra Singh, and Ronnie Figueiredo, provides a persuasive account of the HELLO project and is intended for all students, teachers, administrations, and higher education institutions interested in improving teaching practices and enhancing student learning outcomes. The book presents the challenges in traditional methods of assessing learning outcomes, the limitations of diverse attempts to fill the quality information gap, and the rationale for HELLO beyond collegial approaches and student-centered learning. The book also explores key challenges in developing and executing HELLO, such as the risks of ranking and value-added methodologies. By offering a comprehensive overview of the HELLO project, this book provides higher education institutions with the information and motivation they need to participate in the project and enhance their students' learning outcomes.
