Description: “This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.” This course provides educators with the knowledge and skills to design lessons that are purposeful, aligned, and highly effective using the backwards mapping approach. Backwards mapping begins with identifying the desired learning outcomes, then determining the assessments that will measure student mastery, and finally planning instructional strategies and activities to reach those outcomes. This method ensures that teaching is not just about covering content, but about intentionally guiding students toward meaningful and lasting learning.Participants will explore how to write clear, standards-based objectives, create assessments that align with those objectives, and design engaging learning experiences that build step by step toward mastery. Through interactive discussions, practice exercises, and real-world classroom examples, the course emphasizes how backwards mapping creates coherence between what students are expected to learn and how they are actually taught. Educators will also reflect on their own lesson plans, gaining practical tools to refine and strengthen their instructional design process.Primary Learning Outcome:Participants will learn how to design purposeful, standards-aligned lessons by starting with end goals, developing meaningful assessments, and mapping instructional activities backwards to ensure consistent student success.This course is ideal for teachers, instructional coaches, and curriculum designers who want to improve lesson planning and maximize student achievement.
