Presenter: Amanda Suckow

“Planning for Identity Through ‘Connecting’ Standards” is a one-hour virtual session designed to provide in-depth insight into how teachers’ and students’ identities influence various lesson planning stages utilizing a connecting standard: selecting content and repertoire; making sense of an unpacked standard; seeking opportunities to provide student choice to encourage student innovation; and exploring varied assessment practices that anticipate student response. The session will not thoroughly address these complex topics; instead, the focus is on investigating opportunities to consider student and teacher identity when planning.

Learning Objectives:

  • Increase depth of understanding for how an educator’s Identity influences how they see students and select content/repertoire
  • Unpack a ‘connecting’ standard and investigate opportunities to explore student and educator identity
  • Design learning opportunities for a ‘connecting’ standard.
