32. By the time many students hit middle school, disengagement has become a learned behavior. ~KeelyPotter, Reading Specialist
33. Learning Paths
34. Universal Design
35. Universal Design
36. Universal Design for Learning (UDL) A set of principles for curriculum development that applies to the general education curriculum to promote learning environments that meet the needs of all learners.
37. Universal Design
38. UDL Principles Principal 1: Representation Principal 2:Action and Expression Principal 3:Engagement
39. Recognition Networks The "what" of learning Affective Networks The "why" of learning Strategic Networks The "how" of learning Planning and performing tasks. How we organize and express our ideas. Writing an essay or solving a math problem are strategic tasks. How we gather facts and categorize what we see, hear, and read. Identifying letters, words, or an author's style are recognition tasks. How learners get engaged and stay motivated. How they are challenged, excited, or interested. These are affective dimensions.
40. Principle I: Multiple Means of Representation Represent Act/Express Engage The what of learning To give diverse learners options for acquiring information and knowledge Present content in a variety of formats and modalities
41. UDL requires Multiple Means of Representation. Represent Act/Express Engage Multiple Means of Representation Examples:Manipulatives Visual Displays Anticipatory Guides Graphic Organizers Artifacts Videos Music Movement Text Readers
42. Principle II: Multiple Means of Action and Expression Represent Act/Express Engage Judy Augatti
43. UDL requires Multiple Means of Action and Expression. Represent and Act/Express Engage Examples: Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down Gallery Walks Pair/Share Chalkboard/Whiteboard Splash Response Hold-Up Cards Quick Draws Numbered Heads Together Line-Ups
44. Principle III: Multiple Means of Engagement Represent Act/Express Engage
45. UDL requires Multiple Meansof Engagement. Represent Act/Express Engage Examples: Bounce Cards Air Writing Case Studies Role Plays Concept Charades Response Hold-Up Cards Networking Sessions Simulations
46. With UDL more students are: Achieving Motivated Engaged Learning
47. Multiple Means of Representation for ELLs(and all language learners . . . ) Represent Act/Express Engage Non-verbal Language Support Word banks Word walls Labels Graphic organizers Sentence starters Sentence frames Modeling Pictures Realia/Concrete objects Gestures Manipulatives Demonstrations Hands-on Picture dictionaries
48. Multiple Means of Expressing for ELLs(and all language learners . . . ) Represent Act/Express Engage Role-play Illustrations/ Drawings / Visuals Gestures Circumlocution First language
49. Multiple Means ofEngagement for ELLs(and all language learners . . . ) Represent Act/Express Engage Student Interaction Oral comprehension supports reading and writing development Differentiate collaborative activities
50. Learning about Language What does it say? What does it mean? What does it matter?
51. Implications for the Classroomexplicit teaching of language Create a language-sensitive classroom Deconstruct/reconstruct complex text View all languages as assets
52. Activity: WLES Press Release Add approaches or accomplishments from your World Language programs to your cloze media form that highlight UDL principles in action. Connect this information to other content areas from across the curriculum, with a special focus on literacies.
53. Tools and Strategies for Challenging All Learners Concept-Based Teaching Tiered Assignments Project-Based Learning Curriculum Compacting Independent Study with Rubrics Seminars Other: All with appropriate challenge!
54. Non–Negotiables for Gifted Learners Gifted Children Vary in Needs and Strengths Mindset of Differentiation in Class, School, LEA Pre-assessment to understand needs and strengths; Flexible Grouping Social and Emotional Needs Addressed Academic and Cognitive Growth Addressed AIG: ALL DAY, EVERY DAY
55. Serving All is a Process NCDPI Arts Education Literacy Institute 2004
56. Response to Instruction NC DPI has identified RtI as a research-based school improvement model and provides support to district and school implementation through professional development, technical assistance, and coaching.
57. Problem-Solving, Data, & Decision-Making Decision making is aided by access to data Providing instruction on a problem-solving model (TIPS) will result in problem solving that is Thorough Logical Efficient Effective Structure of meetings lays foundation for efficiency and effectiveness (Newton et al, 2009)

71. What is Backwards Design? Click on the Bubbl.us link for our Mindmap: Click on a tab (or tabs) so that you can type in 3 -5 words or phrases that you associate with Backwards Design. As ideas are added, group information and piggyback on what’s being shared.
72. Backwards Design … relates to a planning sequence for curriculum (Wiggins & McTighe, 1998; Sandrock, 2010): Identify desired results Determine acceptable evidence Plan learning experiences and instruction
73. Backwards Design Let’s take a look at Backwards Design using the Proficiency 101 Lesson Plan Template
74. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results What is the TARGET? What should students know, understand, and be able to do? “For learning languages, the target is using a new language to interpret, exchange, and present information and ideas” (Sandrock, 2010, p. 11)
75. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results McTighe & Wiggins, 1998, p. 10
76. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results McTighe & Wiggins, 1998, p. 10
77. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results McTighe & Wiggins, 1998, p. 10
78. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results McTighe & Wiggins, 1998, p. 10
79. Backwards Design – Step 1Identify Desired Results McTighe & Wiggins, 1998, p. 10
80. Backwards Design – Step 2Determine Acceptable Evidence Think like an assessor, not an activity designer! How will students demonstrate that they have met the target(s) for their proficiency level? Formative assessment Summative assessment
81. Backwards Design – Step 2Determine Acceptable Evidence Integrated Performance Assessment or IPA Authentic Performance-based Related to the three modes of communication (interpretive, interpersonal, presentational) Integrated Show progress through stages of proficiency “Teaching to the test” but in a positive sense . . .
82. Backwards Design - Step 3: Plan Learning Experiences & Instruction What learning experiences and instruction will enable learner to achieve the desired results? How will they get to where they’re going?
83. Proficiency 101 Video As we watch the P101 video, think about how you would answer these questions: What evidence in the video shows that students are hooked? How do the activities in the video prepare the students for the end point? How are the activities in the video tailored for individuals? How is the instruction organized to help students gain deeper understanding?
84. Activity: Video Jigsaw Questions Each table will discuss their answers to their assigned question: What evidence in the video shows that students are hooked? How do the activities in the video prepare the students for the end point? How are the activities in the video tailored for individuals? How is the instruction organized to help students gain deeper understanding?
85. Activity: Video Jigsaw Questions 1 person at each table should record the group’s responses onscreen using a Word or Google doc. Now let’s do a Gallery Walk of screens to see the responses.
