The document discusses professional development on curriculum maps based on the Understanding by Design model. It aims to disseminate curriculum maps and explain how they are aligned to federal standards. The maps are designed using the Understanding by Design framework which emphasizes backwards planning focused on desired results and student understanding. Teachers can use the curriculum maps in their daily planning to ensure alignment between lessons, assessments and intended learning outcomes for students.

SUBJECT RESOURCE MODULES:
MODULES ARE USED TO:
THREE KEY THINGS THAT ARE IMPORTANT WHILE DESIGNING A MODULE FOR ANY SUBJECT:
1. Be clear about the module purposes and aspirations for student participants and communicate these to students:
2. Make sure your module is constructively aligned (the learner actively constructs their own understanding and all teaching and assessment are aligned with outcomes the intended).
3. Considering the course in context (department, institution, sector):

5.2.5 -Areas of Research in Evaluation
Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation-
Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) is an educational assessment strategy that goes beyond traditional examination-oriented assessments.
It aims to evaluate a student's performance in a holistic manner, considering various aspects of their learning and development throughout the academic year.
CCE has been introduced to shift the focus from rote learning and exam scores to a more comprehensive understanding of a student's capabilities.
It is a shift towards a more student-centric and holistic approach to education.
CCE implemented effectively, can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of a student's abilities and encourage a broader range of skills and competencies beyond academic achievements.
CCE Meaning-
CCE is a process of evaluating the child’s development in all the school-related activities.
This proposal was directed under the Right to Education Act in 2009 by the Central Board of Secondary Education of India and the state governments in India.
Using CCE, teachers can diagnose learners' deficiencies using a variety of assessment activities.
After completing the assessment activities, learners are given valuable feedback.
The teacher guides and supports them to identify the problems.
Aim Of Continuous And Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)-
Evaluate and guide the students in all aspects of education
Improve learning outcomes by focusing on skills and cognitive abilities of students
Encourage regular assessment and constructive criticism
Reduce stress and pressure on students
Enable the instructors with prolific teaching
Functions Of Continuous And Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)-
Helps in the development of new and effective teaching strategies
Aids regular assessment to understand student’s progress
Helps to understand the weaknesses and strengths of students
Enables the teacher to understand problems faced by students and make changes in teaching techniques
Encourages self-assessment among the students
Helps students to develop good habits, work on their weaknesses and correct the errors
It gives an idea about the change in student’s attitudes and values
It gives reports about student’s progress over a period of time
Reduced Exam Stress
Encourages Participation
Identifies Learning Gaps
Challenges in Implementing CCE and Role of Teacher-
Challenges:
Implementation Issues: CCE may face challenges in terms of effective implementation and standardization across different educational institutions.
Assessment Load: Managing continuous assessments can be demanding for both teachers and students.
Teacher's Role:
Facilitator of Learning: Teachers play a crucial role in creating an environment that promotes learning and development.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

7. What is Understanding?
Understanding - I caught the idea, I can explain it, make
connection,. know why and how it works. It is the ability to apply
knowledge wisely and effectively to real world situations.

Explanation –sophisticated and
apt theories and illustrations, which
provide knowledgeable and justified
accounts of events, actions and
ideas.
Perspective- critical and insightful
points of view.
Interpretation-interpretations,
narratives and translations that
provide meaning.
Application- ability to use
Empathy-the abililty to get inside
another person’s feelings.

Teaching for Comprehension or
Understanding
Design of Understanding
11. The Seven Tenets of UbD Framework
Learning is enhanced when teachers think purposefully about curricular
planning. The UbD framework helps this process without offering a rigid
process or prescriptive recipe.
The UbD framework helps to focus curriculum and teaching on the
development and deepening of student understanding and transfer of learning
( the ability to effectively use content knowledge and skill) .
12. The Seven Tenets of UbD
The Framework
Understanding is revealed when students automatically make sense of and
transfer their learning through authentic performance. Six facets of
understanding – the capacity to explain, interpret, apply, shift perspective,
empathize, and self assess- can serve as indicators of understanding.
13. Continue
Effective curriculum is planned backward from long- term, desired results
through a three- stage design process( Desired Results, Evidence, and Learning
Plan). This process helps avoid the common problems of treating the textbook
as the curriculum rather than a resource, and activity oriented teaching in which
no clear priorities and purposes are apparent.
Teachers are coaches of understanding, not mere transmitters of content
knowledge, skill, or activity. They focus on ensuring that learning happens, not
teaching ( and assuming that what was taught was learned); they always aim and
check for successful meaning making and transfer by the learner.
14. continues
Regularly reviewing units and curriculum against design standards
enhances curricular quality and effectiveness, and provides engaging
and professional discussions.
The UbD framework reflects a continual improvement approach to
student achievement and teacher craft. The results of our designs-
student performance- inform needs’ adjustments on curriculum as
well as instruction so the student learning is maximized

18. Stage 1—Identify Desired Results
Key Questions:
What should students know, understand, and be able to do?
What is the ultimate transfer we seek as a result of this unit?
What enduring understandings are desired?
What essential questions will be explored in-depth and provide focus to all
learning?
19. Stage 2—Determine Assessment Evidence
How do I teach?
Key Questions: How will we know if students have achieved the desired
results?
What will we accept as evidence of student understanding and their ability
to use (transfer) their learning in new situations?
How will we evaluate student performance in fair and consistent ways?
20. Stage 3—Plan Learning Experiences and
Instrucctions
Key Questions:
How will we support learners as they come to understand important ideas
and processes?
How will we prepare them to autonomously transfer their learning?
What enabling knowledge and skills will students need to perform
effectively and achieve desired results?
What activities, sequence, and resources are best suited to accomplish our
goals?
21. Curriculum Mapping
Structure maximizing learning time (school calendar).
Is a design that organizes the material contained in a
sequential and systematic way.
Synthesizes and presents the highlights that every teacher has
to work in content.
Emphasizes essential concepts required to develop different
levels of knowledge.
It is an organized way to plan the content to be offered with
different strategies, activities and assessment.
Focus on understanding.
(Hayes, J., 2004).
22. Curriculum maps
The process by which teachers document their curriculum,
share, examine to identify gaps, inconsistencies,
redundancies and new learning.
This experience creates a coherent and consistent curriculum
across disciplines, aligned with the standards and
expectations that responds to the information we have of
students.

26. To ensure that all expectations were being
addressed, a curriculum alignment tool was
created.
This way, we make sure that all of the parts of the
expectation are being addressed.
Acts as a tool for teachers, instructional leaders,
and principals to see at a glance what
expectations are covered in a unit.
What is the purpose of the Curriculum
Alignment Tool?
27. Bi-dimensional organization
Vertical alignment compares all the
standards in a content area/strand
across all of the grades
Ensures that as students progress
from one grade to the next, they
are building on prior knowledge
Guarantees that as the standards
become more broad/deep, new
concepts and skills are introduced
Establishes the prerequisite skills
that are taught in preceding grades
Corresponds to the sequence of
the contents to be achieved.
Ensures that all teachers, are
covering a specific content, to a
degree and following a similar time
line.
Is a common curriculum to ensure
that all students receive equal
educational opportunities
throughout the grades.
Development of educational
experiences that demonstrate
conceptual skills of standards and
expectation based assessment.

Conocer- contenido, teorías, fechas, otros Entender- adueñarse del conocimiento para aplicarlo a situaciones nuevas o reales (prácticas)
Me adueñé del conocimiento y entonces puedo explicar, interpretar, … Se relaciona con los niveles de pensamiento de Bloom.
Ideas grandes - Conceptos, principios y teorías principales que se utilizan para enfocar el currículo, la instrucción y el assessment. Son patrones significativos que permiten conectar el conocimiento fragmentado. Metas para la Transferencia- Mediante la comprensión de las grandes ideas. Requisitos de Desempeño Es lo que el estudiante debe saber, hacer y entender. Criterios de evaluación al principio (assessment) Determinar hasta qué punto los resultados del aprendizaje corresponden a los esperados.
Transferir- aplicar lo aprendido a nuevos contextos y situaciones. Necesito practicar, practicar y practicar, solo así, puedo utilizar el aprendizaje. Dar sentido- enfrentar las grandes ideas, hacer conexiones, proponer hipótesis, criticar y editar documentos. Adquirir- enseñanza directa de instrucción. Leer en voz alta, sumar, recordar eventos, calcular la distancia entre dos puntos.
Preguntas Esenciales Deben actuar como una referencia o un guía hacia el entendimiento de las ideas grandes de una unidad o tema del curso. Una pregunta no puede ser esencial si no está formulada pensando en los estudiantes y sus necesidades; si ésta no provoca más interés y más preguntas, no puede ser considerada “ esencial ” . Su propósito es despertar a los estudiantes - estimular sus mentes con interés, provocar más preguntas en sus cabezas. Son las que comenzamos en la sala de clases pero cuyas respuestas profundizamos y seguimos tratando siempre, llegando a respuestas que cambian y varían dependiendo de las experiencias de la vida.
Cómo se demuestran las facetas del entendimiento. Explicar – proporcionar, a fondo y con apoyo, cuentos justificados de los fenómenos, los hechos y los datos. Perspectiva- escuchar los puntos de vistas a través de ojos y oídos críticos, ver el panorama completo. Interpretar- contar historias significativas, ofrecer traducciones, proporcionar una revelación histórica o dimensión personal a la ideas y acontecimientos. Empatía- encontrar valores en lo que otros podrían encontrar extraño . Percibir con sensibilidad las experiencias directas y previas. Aplicar- utilizar eficazmente y adaptar lo que se conoce en diversos contextos. Autoconocimiento – percibir el estilo propio, los prejuicios, las proyecciones y los hábitos de la mente.
