Twitter is an amazing source of professional development for me. My Twitter friends share so many useful articles, resources, and tips on a daily basis, that I miss it when I'm running full-speed through my day and can't get to it.
In between appoinments today, I had some time to look through Twitter and found an article that @clifmims shared called "Everything you know about curriculum may be wrong. Really" by Grant Wiggins. I have read it twice already and plan to re-read it again. It really has me thinking...
We are in a period of tremendous change in education. Since we're in the middle of all this change, it might be a good time to rethink the way we approach curriculum.
Before you plan new units around the Common Core Standards, read this article and let me know if I can help.
If you have questions or comments, you can comment here or on Grant Wiggins' blog article. He is answering questions and responding to his readers on his blog. The comments there are every bit as informative as the article itself!
