This document outlines the backward design instructional design principle. It involves 3 key steps: 1) identifying the desired results and learning objectives students should achieve, 2) determining acceptable evidence that students have achieved the objectives through assessments, and 3) planning the learning experiences and instruction to help students achieve the objectives and pass the assessments. The process is meant to start with the end goal in mind and work backwards to design the instructional content and activities.
