3. Backwards Design Approach
Identify desired results – what should students know, understand and be able to do? What is worthy of understanding?
Consider goals:
Course performance objectives
Department/Program outcomes
Examine content standards (institutional, state, national
Review curriculum expectations
Instructors/students’ interests & expectations
Getting to know students – starting the course with image-based introductions.

4. Backwards Design Approach
Determine Acceptable Evidence -- How will we know if students have achieved the desired results and met the standards? What will we accept as evidence of student understanding and proficiency?
Consider a range of assessment methods – informal and formal
Q&A, daily feedback, presentations, tests, videos
Reports, quizzes, projects, team work, games, badges
Consider how student understanding will be measured before designing the specific units and lessons.
Well-written outcomes lead directly to their assessments

5. Backwards Design Approach
