Chapter 6: Responsive Teaching with UBD in Academically Diverse Classroom

In this chapter the core beliefs of the whole teaching philosophy are exposed. In condensed form they are: students should experience curricula based in the important ideas that help them understand information and think at higher levels, students need a chance to learn the basics and opportunities to apply to them personally, there needs to be a balance between student construction of meaning and teacher guidance, and that students need to know the goals of a unit to successfully demonstrate understanding. Knowing these goals I am more capable of understanding and using these teaching techniques.
