Description

The Understanding by Design Guide to Creating High-quality Units is a comprehensive resource for educators seeking to create curriculum units and assessments that focus on developing students' understanding of important ideas. This guide offers instructional modules on the basic concepts and elements of Understanding by Design (UbD), including the "backward design" approach used by thousands of educators worldwide. The eight modules are organized around the UbD Template Version 2.0, featuring components such as guiding exercises, worksheets, and design tips to support unit creation, planning, and adaptation. The guide is designed for K-16 educators, university curriculum courses, and school administrators who want to apply the principles of UbD in their work. With accompanying downloadable resources, including a fillable PDF form and additional worksheets, users can easily create high-quality units that focus on student understanding. This guide provides a flexible approach, allowing users to navigate the modules in sequence or skip around depending on their previous experience with UbD.
