This document outlines an instructional unit planning guide using the Big6 model. It provides prompts for teachers and librarians to plan each of the six Big6 steps: 1) defining the task, 2) strategies for seeking information, 3) locating and accessing sources, 4) using information gathered, 5) synthesizing information into a final product, and 6) evaluating the final product and process. For each step, it prompts planning who will introduce skills, how students will be grouped, sources to be used, time needed, and which teacher or librarian will cover certain skills. The overall purpose is to collaboratively plan an instructional research unit from defining the task to student evaluation.

This document outlines an instructional lesson plan for students to evaluate websites for research. It involves reviewing search techniques and discussing criteria for assessing website validity, such as usefulness, accuracy, bias and currency. Students will complete an internet research assignment where they choose a website and evaluate the quality of information provided based on the criteria. Their assessment will be based on the accuracy and analysis of the chosen website. The lesson integrates business and history course expectations and teaches an important research skill for academic and professional careers.Student centered classroom

This document discusses an education project where students worked to save a local beach. It compares this project to more traditional teaching methods. The project took a student-centered approach where students had voice, choice, and participated collaboratively on authentic tasks. In contrast, traditional methods are more teacher-directed where some students participate on isolated facts. This project allowed students to practice skills like critical thinking, analysis, and working in meaningful contexts rather than just memorizing out-of-context learning. It asks teachers to find ways to incorporate relevant content and tools to involve students in a more participative manner.Aldine Grades 3-4 Nov 2010

Creating a Unit Plan
Once youve gotten to know your students through learning profile inventories that identify individual areas of strength and learning styles, you can design multimodal lessons that incorporate instructional technology that engage the 21st century learner. This week, you will create a three-day unit plan outline that addresses students diverse learning styles and multiple intelligences, acknowledges cultural and language differences, and integrates digital tools and technology.
Using the textbook as guidance, create a Unit Plan outline, using the
provided template
that includes:
Introduction:
Describe the demographics of your current (or fictional classroom) including:
Grade Level and Subject Area
Total number of students ability levels, gender, students with special needs, English Language Learners (ELLs)
Other relevant information (such as socioeconomic status, family background, recurring behavior issues, etc.)
Stage 1:
The first stage is to determine the Big Picture; what you want students to learn, conceptually, at the units conclusion. You must:
Identify the content, unit title, unit subject, and at least one Common Core State Standard (CCSS) that aligns with the unit.
Create at least two measurable unit objectives that align with the CCSS.
Describe what you want the students to master including key concepts, big ideas, and major understandings (see the textbook, Chapter 4 for guidance).
The following resources are helpful when creating Stage 1:
Common Core Standards - The Standards
Writing measurable learning objectives
.
P21 common core toolkit
Stage 2:
The second stage outlines evidence of learning including pre-assessments, formative assessments, and a summative assessment.
Pre-assessment:
Explain how you will measure students level of readiness and preexisting knowledge specific to the content chosen. Include how you will take into account student strengths, interests, and learning needs.
Formative Assessment:
Explain how you will use formative assessments to drive differentiated instruction throughout the unit specific to the content youve chosen. Be sure to include how these assessments address UDL principals.
Summative Assessment:
Design a summative assessment that will measure the students level of unit mastery. You must include how this assessment addresses UDL principals and DI theory and how the assessment takes into account your diverse student population.
Stage 3:
The final stage of the unit plan involves developing the activities and experiences, building upon what you determined in Stage 1. This stage involves tailoring learning activities to the identified strengths, learning styles, and interests of students, organizing lessons in a meaningful way that emphasizes the relevance of the learning, and engaging the learners with active learning strategies(Chapter 4, pp. 5-6). In addition, this stage should also incorporate self-regulation strat.Markus id project 1
