If you missed it, this blogpost summarizes the key points covered. The focus of the talk was <em>Lesson Planning and Reflection<\/em>. The key learning points included the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Lesson planning framework in a university context;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Constructing S M A R T and S M A R T ER students learning objectives (SLOs) to guide student learning;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Developing a direct instruction lesson plan to maximize student learning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Framework for Lesson Planning in a University Context<\/strong>: Although <em>lesson planning<\/em> is a term that is commonly associated with K-12 education, the concept is relevant to the university context when it is defined as a pedagogical practice of designing a single class or two classes on the same topic within a course. Working from a lesson plan helps university teachers to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Focus teaching on student learning;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep student learning objectives\/outcomes at the forefront of instruction;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maximize academic learning time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/time.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"221\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/time.png?resize=300%2C221&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1104\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/time.png?resize=300%2C221&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/time.png?w=331&amp;ssl=1 331w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <em>concept of time<\/em> which encompasses allocated time, time on task and academic learning time exemplifies a powerful rationale for lesson planning. In order to increase academic learning time, university teachers must be intentional with lesson planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wiggins and McTighe\u2019s (2005) Backward Design informed the framework for lesson planning as shown below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What should the students know, understand and be able to do (KUDs) to show that they have attained the student learning objectives (<strong>SLOs<\/strong>) of today\u2019s class?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Through what means (formative assessment) will students demonstrate the attainment of the <strong>SLOs<\/strong>?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What learning experiences (instructional activities) will enable students to attain the <strong>SLOs<\/strong>?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Constructing S M A R T and S M A R T ER SLOs<\/strong>: SLOs are specific, behavioral statements of the intended outcome (s) of a particular learning experience (Richmond, Boysen &amp; Gurung, 2016). SLOs must be aligned backward to reflect institutional, program and course goals, and delivered forward to meet these goals. Additionally, SLOs must be written in a decisive way to guide lesson planning and support student learning; they must be S M A R T:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Specific\/Student-oriented<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Measurable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Attainable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relevant<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Time-bound (Cline, 2012).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>S M AR T attributes are basic writing conditions. In order to make SLOs specific, measurable and results-oriented and therefore, SMARTER, they must be aligned with the cognitive levels and the knowledge dimensions in the Revised Bloom\u2019s Taxonomy as represented in Table 1 below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Cognitive-Processes.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Cognitive-Processes.png?resize=614%2C202&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1105\" width=\"614\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Cognitive-Processes.png?w=975&amp;ssl=1 975w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Cognitive-Processes.png?resize=300%2C98&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Cognitive-Processes.png?resize=768%2C252&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Table: 1.2 colorized version from original by Anderson, L.

I elaborated on the direct instruction lesson plan. The behaviors incorporated into direct instruction are designed to create a structured learning environment where students are actively engaged and are experiencing a high rate of success (Joyce, Weil &amp; Calhoun, 2004). The behaviors are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pre-planning Reflection: Diagnostic planning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lesson opening<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design Process: Flow\/Body of the lesson<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Close\/Consolidate<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reflection Go to <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/32UR7NH\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/32UR7NH<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The following diagrams illustrate the processes of two direct instruction approaches:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diagram 1: Gradual Release of Responsibility<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-1.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-1.png?resize=513%2C289&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1106\" width=\"513\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-1.png?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-1.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 513px) 100vw, 513px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Diagram 2: Play, Pause, Repeat Strategy<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-2.png?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-2.png?resize=511%2C287&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1107\" width=\"511\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-2.png?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/1441\/files\/2019\/10\/Direct-Instruction-2.png?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 511px) 100vw, 511px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Diagram 2 forces the question, what kinds of formative assessment techniques should university teachers implement during the strategic breaks between the iterations of instructional input?
