Curriculum & Instructional Design_week 5 Discussion 2

Q An educator’s daily lesson plan is the most detailed and updated guide that they have to facilitate learning in their classroom. In essence, lesson planning is the educator’s opportunity to decide, in advance what curriculum to introduce, the instructional delivery method they will use, and how intended objectives will be assessed. After reading Chapter 8, perform these two tasks. • Jones, Jones, and Vermette (2011) did a three year study of novice educators’ lesson planning practices to determine if patterns of common blunders may exist in their design process. o Discuss the six most common pitfalls that research uncovered that novice educators make when planning lessons. • Read Valerie’s case from the classroom found in section 8.6 in your textbook. o Answer question number three: “Valerie claims to use three different planning models: direct instruction, inquiry based (specifically, the 5E model), and social interaction, depending on the day, the objective, and the activity. Critique her match of models with the lesson purpose. Offer your own examples of each of these models for a curricular area of your choice.” (Hansen et al., 2015) Refer to Chapter 8 in your text, additional resources and your own insights/experiences. Respond to at least two classmates’ postings.

? It is stated in the book that one will be assisted in navigation by understanding the most common impediments of the plan of the lesson. The common 6 pitfalls are Understanding Not Administered Assessment, Fails Assessment to Match Objective Learning, Students are Knowledge’s Passive Recipients, Unclear Objective Learning, Failure to Gather Multiple Formative Assessments at the Time of Lesson, and Absence of an Engaging Start in the Lesson Plan (Hansen, Buczynski & Puckett, 2015). The pitfall that sticks mostly out of the 6 pitfalls is the absence of an engaging beginning in the lesson plan. It has been observed that in case of an engaging plan from the start, how the same may be a stumbling block and pitfall. It is essential to make preparation for a plan of the lesson and should be placed well together to the end from the start.
