ED 5010 - Curriculum Design/Planning/Instruction/Assessment

This course provides the student with an opportunity to acquire knowledge of and demonstrate competence in a variety of curricula in K-12 schools and design, plan, deliver, and evaluate student learning across the curriculum. There will be an emphasis on content specific standards and learning competencies and how they become the driving force for lesson planning and assessment. The Understanding By Design model will be used to guide students in developing lessons that can be taught with small and large groups of learners. The curriculum in all content areas will be discussed and the integration of curriculum to enhance student learning and authentic forms of assessment will be a focus. (3 Credits) There is an experiential component for those seeking licensure.
