Curriculum

Instructor- Carole Freehan

This course provided the opportunity to look at articles on curriculum and learn APA format of citing work. I chose to look at works related around assessment, the need to change what we do for the betterment of our students, and teaching as an art. Looking at curriculum development, my interest was to build assessment practices with the use of technology. SMART Response Systems (formerly SENTEO) provide children with more motivation towards quiz and test taking and allows immediate feedback. Teachers can alter their instruction based on well laid out pie graphs for each question result. It is one way to improve assessment in the 21st Century.
