Effective Reading Lesson Planning & Assessment for ESE Students

What is instructional Design?

Instructional Design is defined as “a systematic process that is employed to develop education and training programs in a consistent and reliable fashion” (Reiser & Dempsey, 2007). In addition, Instructional Design models or theories may be thought of as frameworks for developing modules or lessons that 1) increase and/or enhance the possibility of learning and 2) encourage the engagement of learners so that they learn faster and gain deeper levels of understanding.

The Art and Science of Teaching A Comprehensive Framework For Effective Instruction           

By Robert Marzno

In Marzano's book he articulates his framework in the form of 10 questions that represent a logical planning sequence for successful design.

1. What will I do to establish and communicate learning goals, track student progress, and celebrate success?

2. What will I do to help students effectively interact with new knowledge?

3. What will I do to help students practice and deepen their learning?

4. What will I do to help students generate and test hypotheses about knew knowledge?

5. What will I do to engage students?

6. What will I do to establish or maintain classroom rules and procedures?

7. What will I do to recognize and acknowledge adherence and lack of adherence to classroom rules and procedues?

8. What will I do to establish and maintain effective relationships with students?

9. What will I do to communicate high expectations for all students?

10. What will I do to develop effective lessons organized into a cohesive unit?

(Marzano, 2007)

The Task is for the entire group to complete.
