Content CurriculumMichael S. Gullett
Notes
Entire program is Integrated Curriculum and Implementation of CTE Content/Curriculum with Core Content/Curriculum.
Specific Unit for Assignment 1 of CTE 655 Teacher In-Service prior to the Start of School 2 Day In-Service with Teachers and Principals at a
High School
Phase 1
The entire implementation process through the Understanding by Design Framework will be to answer the Five Essential Questions.
The Five Essential Questions addresses the Five Main Educational Topics in Educational Leadership.
The Five Essential Questions and the answers to these Questions will drive the Desired Result per unit of the Understanding by Design.
Phase 1
Each specific Question of the Five Essential Questions will drive a specific unit within the project of Integrated CTE Content/Curriculum and Core Content/Curriculum School Wide.
Understanding by Design will drive the development, creation, and framework of each unit.
The Understanding by Design is a Framework, and it will provide the process of Implementation.
Five Essential Questions
What do students need to know and do? (Effective Curriculum)
How will they learn it? (Effective Instruction) How will we know if they've learned it? (Effective
Assessment) What will we do if they don't learn it? (Effective
Interventions) What will we do if they already know it? (Effective
Enrichment)

Unit 1 Notes
Frist Essential Question of the Five
What students need to know and do? Effective Curriculum
Due to this program training teachers we will keep this essential question, because it will drive the professional development training and implementation of Integrated Curriculum.
Student focus and the question being driven towards students is at the heart of the unit.
However, the First Unit focuses on Teachers, Implementation, and Integration of Curriculum.
Two Tracks: Effective Curriculum for Students and Effective Curriculum of Integration for Teachers to Implementation School Wide.
Unit 1: Effective Curriculum
Unit 1 Focus around Effective Curriculum of Integration
Our goal and objective is to focus on teacher training for the implementation of effective integrated curriculum
Therefore, Unit 1 is the development of Integrated, Innovative, Creative Curriculum that Aligns CTE with Core Content through Teacher Professional Development Training and Collaboration for the Purpose of Implementation.

CTE and Core Content Class Integrate Curriculum
Teacher Collaboration, Training, and Implementation
Desired Results Understandings:
Teachers will understand that:
Through collaboration time and shared opportunities to work with other content areas that students will be exposed to the same content in more ways. More exposure means more ability to move from understanding to critical thinking.
Integration and Implementation is Organic and Natural.
Is model carried out and implemented through creative and innovative shared content can prepare students for career and college readiness.
Stage 1
Essential Questions What CTE and Core Content align? What CTE and Core Content
Curriculum concepts overlap? What type of curriculum overlaps
and aligns for different ways of learning and exposure for students?
How might creative and innovative instruction assist in implementing integrated curriculum?
Teachers Will Know How CTE and Core Content Align, Overlap,
and Naturally fit within both courses?
