SUMMARY:Begin with the End in Mind: Using Backward Design as a Course Development Framework
DESCRIPTION:Overview  Instructors want their students to understand the expectations for learning in their course. But it can be challenging to ensure this is happening without careful course planning.  In this interactive online workshop, we will discuss backward design (Wiggins and McTighe, 2005) for learning, an approach to instructional planning that starts with identifying desired results? what students are expected to learn or be able to do?and then proceeds ?backward? to determine acceptable evidence of learning (assessments) and to develop instruction and learning activities that promote the desired results.    After participating in this online workshop you will be able to:     	Differentiate between content-centered and learner-centered courses.   	Explain the benefits of incorporating backward design into course design.   	Describe the three steps of the backward design framework.   	Identify tools and methods needed to effectively apply backward design to your courses.    \n    Educational Technology Integrated Into Workshop: Padlet    EVENT LEAD: Erin Stapleton-Corcoran erinls2@uic.edu    EVENT CO-FACILITATOR: Lauren Woods, lmwoods@uic.edu    \n    Inclusivity &amp; Accessibility Information:  UIC is committed to full inclusion and participation of people with disabilities in all aspects of university life.
