Understanding by Design
Understanding by Design is a course design framework. It guides teachers in identifying the abilities students should have at the end of their course. Once these real-world performances are understood, the teacher works backward from them designing every aspect of the course.
The multinational UbD training team is made up of four experienced cross-cultural educators. They are available to lead your faculty through three professional development modules designed to help your instructors understand and use the UbD approach to course design. For more information, contact Dr. Dale Marshfield on djmarshfield@gmail.com.
These module can be done over the course of one week, or they can be broken up into three separate modules with six month in between each.
