Louis Cabuhat, BS M.Ed.

BLOCK SCHEDULING/ROAD MAP
A formal process of planning activities to occur at specific points-in-time
Forces the instructor to anticipate time-demands ahead of the actual lesson
Consider the ‘big picture’ To effectively plan for instruction, you will need to consider the curricular requirements, different learning styles, effective instructional techniques and assessment strategies.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES THAT ARES.M.A.R.T
S: Specific
M: Measureable
A: Achievable
R: Realistic
T: Time-bound
USE OF LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Learning objectives are always stated in terms of what a learner is expected to accomplish.
Learning objectives are always written with S.W.B.A.T. as the opening. For example, ‘Students will be able to…’
S: StudentsW: WillB: Be A: Able T: To
RELY ON A SYSTEM OF ORGANIZATION:
FIVE STEP PROCESS Start the lesson planning process by becoming organized
Gather necessary documents Blank Unitek College lesson plan template Publisher-created lesson plans (as applicable; Evolve®) List of approved Learning Objectives (as applicable) Course/program calendar displaying lesson duration (as applicable) Education methodology reference material (Active Learning Strategies) Guide to Creating Effective Lesson Plans Text books (as applicable) Example of one completed Unitek College lesson plan
Familiarize yourself with each of the documents before beginning the writing process
Step One
Step Two
CONNECT THE LEARNING OBJECTIVES TO SPECIFIC MODE(S) OF INSTRUCTION
Ask yourself: How do you see the information being delivered? Lecture? Video? Discussion? Debate? Role play?
Spend some time brainstorming the different modes of instruction that appropriately support the delivery of required content within the allotted time. Remember, the learning objectives drive the instruction/teaching process for the lesson.
Step Three
VERIFY LEARNING/ASSESSMENT OF LEARNING
An essential part of the overall lesson planning process is to draft activities that allow an instructor to VERIFY that learning actually occurred
Take this activity back to the learning objectives. For example, if the learning objective states: “SWBAT discuss….” Ask yourself
1. Are the students able to DISCUSS?
2. What activities will I (the instructor) use to assess for learning?
Step Four
FORMATIVE VERSUS SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT
The goal of FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT is to monitor student learning to provide ongoing feedback that can be used by instructors to improve their teaching and by students to improve their learning.
More specifically, formative assessments: help students identify their
strengths and weaknesses and target areas that need work
help faculty recognize where students are struggling and address problems immediately
The goal of SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it against some standard or benchmark.
Summative assessments are often high stakes, which means that they have a high point value. Examples of summative assessments include:
A midterm exam
A final project
Final exam
WRITE YOUR PLAN!
Now that you have completed steps 1 – 4, proceed to write your plan.
Start from the top of the plan and move from box to box, saving your work frequently.
Helpful Hint: Reference lesson plan(s) that are written by text book publishers or other instructors to prompt ideas
