Development

For my project I am going to use Understanding by Design -

Understanding by Design, or UbD, is a tool utilized for educational planning focused on "teaching for understanding" advocated by Jay McTighe and Grant Wiggins in their Understanding by Design (1998), published by the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development. The emphasis of UbD is on "backward design", the practice of looking at the outcomes in order to design curriculum units, performance assessments, and classroom instruction.


 * There are 3 stages of Backwards Design **


 * 1.Identify desired results **

Job seekers are provided the opportunity to create a professional network, build a more dynamic resume, and establish a career portfolio.


 * 2.Determine acceptable evidence **

Audience will demonstrate a clear understanding of covered materials by completing a post test with 90% accuracy.


 * 3.Plan learning experiences, instruction **

The audience would gain an understanding of Linked-In, Re.Vu and Weebly, and understand how they can be used to create a professional portfolio.

This instruction can be provided in a lecture format, best case scenario in a computer lab. If presented in a computer lab, teacher can allot extra time to assist audience members with implementation.
