• What we found:• #1: What were
students learning?• A motley collection
of facts• #2: How were
students learning?• Memorization
• #3: Which students were learning?
• Only the “average”• #4: Who was
teaching them?• Just about anyone
that wanted to

comprehensive curriculum– All student to “learn to learn” and “learn to
think”– Teacher and school accountability

• The intent of the [NSES] can be expressed in a single phrase: Science standards for all students. The phrase embodies both excellence and equity. The Standards apply to all students, regardless of age, gender, cultural or ethnic background, disabilities, aspirations, or interest and motivation in science. Different students will achieve understanding in different ways, and different students will achieve different degrees of depth and breadth of understanding depending on interest, ability, and context. But all students can develop the knowledge and skills described in the Standards, even as some students go well beyond these levels.
Once upon a time…

Understanding Standards
![Page 19: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Rules to live by:
Know themUse themTrack themPrioritize them
![Page 20: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
How to Understand a Standard
What content and/or skills are specified?
What level of understanding does it require (use Bloom’s taxonomy)?
What is the benchmark level? Is it appropriate for my students?
What can I accept as evidence of mastery?
![Page 21: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Too Many!! What should I do?
• Prioritize• Know which ones are readiness standards and which are supporting standards
![Page 22: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Readiness VS Supporting Standards
![Page 24: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Standards and Objectives
Should match very closely
Objectives should be:
Specific -- describe precisely what the learner is expected to d0
Outcome based -- state what the learner should be able to do after the instruction is complete NOT what the process of instruction is going to be.
Measurable – The teacher must be able to observe the behavior.
![Page 25: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
ABCD Model for Writing Objectives
A = Audience
“The student will….” “All third grade students will…”
![Page 26: Learning and using standards](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062515/55cba814bb61ebc71b8b473d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
ABCD Model for Writing Objectives
B = Behavior
Verbs that describes what the learner (audience) will be able to do after the instruction.
This is the heart of the objective and MUST be measurable, observable, and specific.
Verbs such as know, understand, comprehend, and appreciate are difficult to measure and are therefore not good choices for objectives.
