//Backwards Planning & Authentic Assessments//
 * Aligning with the Common Core & P21**
 * Overview**: Take your Curriculum Maps up a notch and thoughtfully create a dynamic, blended instructional unit. Create "Authentic Assessments" to upgrade the way that you assess student progress.



Teachers will reflect and improve their Common Core Aligned Curriculum Maps to include 21st Century skills. Participants will align innovative maps to standards based assessments.
 * Objectives:**

"Students Who are College and Career Ready in Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening and Language: Tailor their searches online to acquire useful information efficiently, and integrate what they learn using technology with what they learn offline. They are familiar with the strengths and limitations of various technological tools and mediums and can select and use those best suited to their communication goals."
 * Common Core Standards for K-12**
 * W.4.6**. With some guidance and support from adults, use technology, including the internet, to produce and publish writing as well as to interact and collaborate with others; demonstrate sufficient command of keyboarding skills to type a minimum of one page in a single sitting.
 * SL.11-12.2.** Integrate multiple sources of information presented in diverse formats and media (e.g. visually, quantitatively, orally) in order to make informed decisions and solve problems evaluating the credibility and accuracy of each source

**2. Learning and Innovation Skills ** Learning and innovation skills increasingly are being recognized as the skills that separate students who are prepared for increasingly complex life and work environments in the 21st century, and those who are not. A focus on creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration is essential to prepare students for the future.
