15. OUR CHALLENGE HOW DO WE TRANSFORM OUR SCHOOLS FROM A 20 TH CENTURY MODEL TO A DYNAMIC 21 ST CENTURY DELIVERY SYSTEM?

16. TO DO THIS, WE MUST ANSWER THREE QUESTIONS 1.WHAT DO WE WANT OUR STUDENTS TO LEARN? 2.HOW WILL WE KNOW IF THEY HAVE LEARNED IT? 3.WHAT DO WE DO IF THEY DON’T?

17. WHAT DO WE WANT OUR STUDENTS TO LEARN? Defining the appropriate content (CSOs) and the right mix of technical, numeracy, literacy and 21 st Century soft skills. Agreeing on the appropriate level (rigor and depth of knowledge) of student proficiency required for success. Changing instructional practice to reflect and reinforce 21 st Century learning. Moving from teacher-centered to student-centered instruction Communicating the instructional expectations to both students and parents (implies accountability on both sides).

18. HOW DO WE KNOW IF THEY HAVE LEARNED IT? We need assessment literate teachers. Use of problem-based rubrics. Less dependence on multiple choice tests and completing the questions at the end of the chapter. Greater emphasis on performance-based evaluations that combine technical, numeracy, literacy and 21 st Century skills focused on deep understanding of the essential content. Focus on the use of technology throughout the curriculum.

19. What do we do if our students do not learn it? Reexamine the delivery of instruction and build scaffolding around the skills. Assess often and intervene when students struggle (assessments for learning). Provide feedback to students, emphasizing their strengths and weaknesses. Students cannot improve if they do not know what they are doing wrong.

20. To Transform a system is Difficult and Deliberate Work! The future of our students must guide our work. Requires us to “Build the Back Porch” in our schools to engage teachers in this transformation. We must understand and embrace the “change” process.
