  15. High Quality Instruction Target and Purpose “Students are the center of all we do”

  16. Today’s Goal/Objective Is to Help You Answer These Questions: • What’s the purpose of setting goals/objectives? • How do I set goals/objectives for learning? • What do I do to communicate goals to my students?

  17. “Look Fors” - Goals/Objectives • Do the goals/objectives identify what is to be learned in relation to the curriculum? (NOT activities) • Are the goals/objectives posted?

  18. What is goal setting? • Goal setting is the process of establishing a clear and explicit purpose for instruction and learning. • Instructional goals narrow what students focus on.

  19. So, what exactly is a goal? • It’s the TARGET learning you want students to gain. • Goals identify the knowledge, concepts and skills to be learned

  20. When students know what they are learning, their performance, on the average, has been shown to be 27 percentile points higher than students who do not know what they are learning

  21. Activities/Assignments are NOT learning goals Today Do problems 1-30 Finish yesterday’s assignment Work on project

  22. Learning Goals As a result of what we do today, you will be able to demonstrate that you: Understand how to apply vertical dilations Know how colonial wars influenced American independence

  23. Some key words to consider when creating learning goals: As a result of what we are going to do today, you will be able to demonstrate that you: Understand … Know … Are skilled at … Can perform… Can analzye…

  24. Understand the various components of culture Make a travel brochure for a region Use strong topic sentences in paragraphs Understand the relationship between fractions and decimals Write a report on an animal Complete fraction worksheet Can retell a story in sequence Design a menu that includes a balance of foods from the food pyramid Understand the difference between simile and metaphor Write a book report Which is a Learning Goal and which is an activity or assignment?

  26. Communicating Learning Goals to Students“I CAN STATEMENTS” • I can use the slope formula to calculate slope given two points. • I can use evidence from the text to support a claim that I develop.

  27. Don’t Forget…Learning Goals • Must be clear. • Must be achievable. • Should be displayed in the same location daily for consistency • Must be assessed --- how will you determine if students missed or HIT the target? • How are students demonstrating their understanding of the learning objective?

  28. Department Groups In groups of 2 or 3 (with representatives from each school) • Review walkthrough data • Consider a goal for the department based on that data • Discuss those as a full group and determine a goal or goals to work on prior to the Nov. 18th combined meeting • Any questions?
