"At the end of the day, teaching is about learning, and learning is about understanding. And as technology evolves to empower more diverse and flexible assessments forms, constantly improving our sense of what understanding looks like–during mobile learning, during project-based learning, and in a flipped classroom–can not only improve learning outcomes, but just might be the secret to providing personalized learning for every learner. We have gathered five alternatives to his legendary, world-beating taxonomy, from the TeachThought Simple Taxonomy, to work from Marzano to Fink, to the crew at Understanding by Design."

"...A special, active-learning opportunity for students, staff, and faculty. Our game is loosely based on the Humans vs Zombies games played on campuses across the country...We have changed the rules a little bit and tried to give it a technological and academic twist. The goal of the game is to model a virus outbreak across our campus where “infected” players report their infection on the game website. At the same time, we will be releasing clues to an antidote that will cure the disease. We will use the game’s website to track how the disease and the antidote spread. Faculty members in sociology, microbiology, literature, and mathematics have already expressed an interest in developing assignments around this game." Delete the scoop?

CCSS aligned assessment and instruction requires texts be of quality—that is, worth reading and re-reading, and capable of supporting rigorous questions grounded in evidence from the text. Inherent in the standards is the need to engage students in texts of appropriate complexity for their grade level and to direct student attention to the complexity of the texts. This document serves to guide educators in how to select texts that can support CCSS-aligned instruction and assessment as well as some resources to find these texts. Delete the scoop?

Quote from Jeff Mao at the Maine DOE, who worked on developing OER for the state: "What we need are better platforms that allow for ease of iteration of content in order to provide personalization and customization for individual learners. We need better platforms that leverage data to help connect learners to the right content. What the publishing industry needs to do is to help all of us become better publishers. That's a service I think people would buy." See the end of the article for rubrics to analyze OER for use in implementing CCSS. Delete the scoop?
