Planning and Assessment

Successful classroom instruction depends not only upon what is done during class time but also upon the analysis and preparation undertaken before and after classes meet. In this course, you will be exposed to a variety of strategies for teaching and assessment and will incorporate them into lesson planning and hands-on teaching. You also will learn how to assess and modify existing teaching materials, as well as how to create original materials for classroom use. Ultimately, you develop the skills necessary for sequencing multiple lesson plans into a cohesive syllabus to achieve defined learning objectives.
