Developing the Curriculum by Oliva & Gordon

  After reading Chapter 1 from Developing the Curriculum by Oliva & Gordon, please answer the following questions in a reflective manner: 1. How would you define your own concept of models of curriculum-instruction relationship based on the theoretical dimensions discussed? Why? How does it influence your own definition of what curriculum is? Directions: After watching the video and readings from Wiggins and McTighe Chapters 1 and 2, please answer the following questions: 2. Reflect on your own (current) framework for designing lesson units. How does your own framework compare/contrast to the backward design template? (Make sure you identify all three stages and address the key questions on each stage). 3. In Chapter 2 Wiggins and McTighe state that “understanding is proven by transfer”. How would you explain the statement in relation to curriculum design? (Make sure you provide examples from the readings). https://youtu.be/d8F1SnWaIfE
