A Presentation for EDUC 8007
Research on Knowledge and Learning in Education

October 13, 2007
Instructor: Tom Peacock
Presenter: Tom Beery

The following materials are designed as a partial interpretation of the Understanding by Design Process. These ideas are considered drafts and are presented as an exploration of course content. It is my hope that my course planning critique and application of new ideas will help bring the UbD model into better focus.

Outcomes:

Students in EDUC 8007 will

• gain an enhanced understanding of the UbD process.
• critically consider the UbD as applied to course design.
• reflect upon personal constructs of wilderness.
