Course Description

Meaningful instruction and a Standards Aligned System are inherently linked. You can’t provide meaningful instruction without a clear direction indicating what students need to know and be able to do. While the standards are a constant, your students and your teaching style are dynamic and flexible. You can choose teaching strategies and methods that meet the standards, value critical thinking, and prepare students for the future. In this course, participants will examine instructional strategies focusing on the key concepts, skills, essential questions, and enduring understandings aligned to the PA Academic Standards to enhance instruction. Note: If you are not currently a full-time teacher, this course has alternate assessments that will allow you to meet the requirements to receive credit. (This course provides 10 Act 48 hours.)
