Order Description
Analysis of a unit and answer the questions: I will download the assignment with directions as well the readings.
Please answer each question in the order that the professor wants:
1-Do the standards in the unit reflect the knowledge, understandings, and skills valued most by experts in the disciplines that they represent?
2-Are we using standards as a curriculum, or are they reflected in the curriculum?
3-Does the unit encourage �slavishly covering standards at breakneck pace� or does the unit organize standards within our curriculum so that students have time to make
sense of ideas and skills?
4-Does the use of standards in this unit enliven classrooms, or do the standards �eliminate joy, creativity, and inquiry?�
5-Do standards in this unit make learning more or less relevant and alluring to students?
6-Does the way standards are used in this unit remind us that we are teaching human beings, or does it cause us to forget that fact? (Pages 2-3)
