Directions: After reading Chapters 5 and 6 from Wiggins and McTighe, please work on the following:
- Examine the differences between overarching and topical understandings in the Understanding by Design framework. How do they align with essential questions and influence curriculum design? Discuss how educators can integrate both to boost student comprehension and engagement.
- Go back to Stage 1 for the lesson unit developed in module 3, and explain how you would change your essential question and understandings (Review ?). Make sure you provide a clear rationale on how your essential question(s) is/are being revised. You do not need to submit your stage 1, just your old essential question(s) and the revised one together with your reflection/explanation.
