  1. THE CCPS MEDIA PROGRAM Curriculum and Instruction 101 or “The Big Picture”

  2. CURRICULUM • Curriculum is a sequential program of concepts, standards, and indicators that describes what a student should know and be able to do at the end of a course of study.

  3. CURRICULUM • The CCPS Library Media Curriculum describes the development of information literacy skills across grades K-12. It can be accessed in the white binders or online at: http://media.ccps.org/curric/curriculum.html

  4. SCOPE AND SEQUENCE • A scope and sequence is a curriculum plan in which a range of instructional concepts, objectives, skills, etc., is organized according to the successive grades or levels at which they are taught.

  5. SCOPE AND SEQUENCE • The CCPS Library Mediascope and sequence is a spreadsheet showing the grade levels at which specific skills and processes are introduced, reinforced and mastered. Worksheets showing the indicators introduced at each grade level are included, as are broad concepts, where appropriate. It is available online at: http://media.ccps.org/curric/curriculum.html

  6. INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN • Instructional design is a term that describes the application of learning and instructional theory to program design in order to ensure the quality of instruction. It involves analyzing learning needs and goals and then developing a delivery system to meet those needs and goals.

  7. INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN • The instructional design model used for the CCPS Library Media program is an information problem-solving model called the Research Cycle. It allows specific skill indicators to be introduced and mastered within the overall framework of a research project, thus connecting those skills to a systematic process.

  8. INSTRUCTIONAL UNIT • A unit is a plan for the systematic delivery of curriculum that addresses content, assessment, introduction/ closure/ teaching strategies, learning activities, grouping and pacing, final products, resources, extension and remediation activities, and differentiation.

  9. INSTRUCTIONAL UNIT • The indicators contained in the CCPS Library Media scope and sequence have been arranged into instructionalunits for each grade level.The majority of these units are organized as research projects which follow the framework of the Research Cycle. These skeletal units, the basis for all instruction in scheduled library classes, are available at: http://media.ccps.org/curric/curriculum.html

  10. INSTRUCTIONAL UNIT • At least one modelunit has been created for each grade level, addressing content, assessment, introduction/ closure/ teaching strategies, learning activities, grouping and pacing, final products, resources, extension and remediation activities and differentiation.

  11. INSTRUCTIONAL UNIT • The modelunits provide a snapshot of how the remaining units for each grade should be developed. As all media specialists develop plans to address these skeletal units, they can share what they have created. When additional model units are written, the various units developed by media specialists can be used as a starting point to ensure that the models utilize the best instructional practices. The model units are available at: http://media.ccps.org/curric/curriculum.html

  12. LESSON PLAN • A lesson plan is an organized outline for a single instructional period. It is a necessary guide for the instructor in that it tells what to do, in what order to do it, and which strategies to use in order to engage student interest and maximize learning.

  13. LESSON PLAN • CCPS policy defines a fully developed lesson plan as one that includes learning objective(s), an assessment of the objective(s), and instructional activities designed to build student proficiency. Fully developed plans are required for the current, preceding and subsequent day. On a Friday, the subsequent day is the following Monday.

  14. LONG RANGE PLANS • CCPS policy requires evidence of long-range planning. Long-range plans are a roadmap that describes the order and time-frame through which a teacher will deliver the curriculum. CCPS policy does not stipulate any particular format and teachers are free to organize long-range plans in any manner desired. Our scope and sequence, organized into units, should make long-range planning easy. All you need to do is put the units into a calendar of some sort to show when they will be covered.

  15. Perspectives on Curriculum • Curriculum as written • CCPS Library Media curriculum • CCPS Library Media scope and sequence • Curriculum as delivered • Media specialists’ long range plans • CCPS Library Media model units • Individual media specialist’s unit and lesson plans developed to address the skeletal units. • Curriculum as learned • Formative and summative assessments • 5th grade Library Media benchmark assessment
