Module 3: Planning Instruction to Support Standards  Back to "Professional Development Sessions"   Module 3 introduces a standards instructional planning guide as a way to respond to the question, How do we link the assessment to instruction? Using this guide, participants examine sample assessment items aligned with a standard. They then determine what student learning experiences could lead to achievement of that specific standard. Thus the mathematics found in the assessment items and the required student learning experiences guide the process of developing a standards instructional plan. As a result of engaging in Module 3, participants will: learn to use a standards instructional planning model, identify required learning experiences based on standards, and align instructional strategies and materials with identified student learning experiences.   Back
