shift the mindset from teaching to learning. (How will the student best learn this knowledge and practice these skills for transfer?)

articulate content-area knowledge the student should build.

focus on the content not the container.

Page 17: Jansen TLA 2013

Meaningful assignments cont...

making the content relevant to students’ lives,

requiring vigorous effort and rigorous thought, and/orproviding an audience for their results.allow for students to practice “traditional” skills.allows for students to practice “21st century” skills.

Questions to ask: Going beyond information found in sources

1. Is the purpose of the activity to provide initial background information for the topic or are you wanting to have the students make connections among topics they have already studied or something that is important to them in their lives today?

2. I wonder if the kids can just cut and paste information they find in the sources? How do you want the students to go beyond the information they find?

Page 20: Jansen TLA 2013

3. Who is the students’ audience? 4. What is the best way for students to

show the results to, or reach, the audience?5. Do we want to ensure that

all students benefit by all of the research and results and are responsible for learning about all topics in addition to the one they researched?

Lead with conversations

What questions will you need to ask yourself? What questions will you need to ask your teaching partner?

Group collaboration: Develop questions for which you can raise the bar in designing learning experiences that will help students build knowledge, require rigor of thought, and develop essential skills.
