Backward Design

I first encountered the idea of  Backward Design Plan when I was studied EDC 2300 Assessment and Reporting.


Refer to our Study Desk (week4) stated the usage in the particular approach called Backward design (Wiggins and McTighe, 1998) at EDC3100 is referring to the unit planning and examining the initial components of that template.

The Backwards Design is structural model to support alignment in our planning. It contents of three steps, each with a collection of questions to be answered. 

  1. Identify desired results.
  2. Determine acceptable evidence.
  3. Plan learning experiences and instruction.
The three steps with the questions above, needed to consider with theological introduction as alignment and planning to those three area of curriculum, assessment and pedagogy into a planning process of unit plan.

Identified desired results (Extracted the diagram from studydesk)

Identify desired results
Curriculum
From the curriculum you've chosen you're going to identify two types of learning outcomes/objectives - constructing knowledge and transforming knowledge. You'll select appropriate outcomes from your curriculum as what you're trying to teach.
Determine acceptable evidence
Assessment
From your curriculum you're going to identify/develop standards-based criteria that tell you how you will measure whether or not the students have achieved the learning outcomes you've chose.
You will design assessment tasks that help you gather evidence against these criteria.
Plan learning experiences and instruction.
Pedagogy
You will develop a sequence of learning experiences designed to help your students achieve the learning outcomes and generate evidence by which you can evaluate their achievement.
