- Details
The day will be structured so to encourage a useful, down-to-earth discussion about the concrete and big-picutre issues related to programs' individual curriculum development. There will be a "show and tell" session, as well as facilitated whole group and small group discussion around topics such as: successes and challenges that programs have faced as they develop and refine their curriculum, curriculum as a constant-work-in progress, the role of our students and their goals in the curriculum development process, allignment of program curriculum with the Massachusetts' Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's Curriculum Framework, and thematic and project-based approaches to curriculum development. There will be opportunites to share processes, resources and actual examples of lessons and/or curriculum units.
