Effective instruction requires planning. A range of models exist which can extend learning when used appropriately.

• Create a 5 to 6-page paper in a Word document for your response.
• Use APA format for in-text citations.
• Create a title page and references page in APA format.
• Follow the steps to complete the assignment.

Step 1. Research
Investigate one framework from the list provided:

• Conceptual Systems (Hunt)
• Dimensions of Learning (Marzano & Pickering)
• 4 MAT (McCathy)
• Project Zero (Harvard)
• Authentic Learning (Newmann & Wehlage)
• Inductive Thinking (Taba)
• Advance Organizers (Ausubel)
• Direct Instruction (Good, Brophy, Becker)
• Mastery Learning (Bloom)

Step 2. Transform
Using the analyzed lesson plan from Module 1, demonstrate how the lesson can be retooled to fit the framework selected. Use different colored font to modify the completed lesson plan template from Module 1 to show the changes.

Supportive Guidance Example:
Taba’s Inductive Thinking has a series of steps for yielding a conclusion. Using the lesson plan from Module 1, where would this type of activity fit? What could be exchanged, transformed, or enhanced if you want to include Taba’s strategy? Make these changes.

Step 3. Reflection

Answer each question in one or two well-developed paragraphs. What steps had to be considered to adjust a lesson created within the framework of Understanding by Design to fit within a different context? How does the understanding of a framework limit or enhance its use? What value does this approach to restructuring bring to your teaching skills? NOTE: High Turnitin scores should be expected.
