Stage+2+Overview

=**Stage 2**= - (UbD Workbook p.48-49) (UbD Workbook p.136) (UbD Workbook p.207)

This stage considers **evidence of learning**. How will we know if students have achieved the desired results and met the content standard? How will we know that students really understand the identified big ideas? What will we accept as evidence of proficiency? **“Thinking like an Assessor”** The backward design suggests we think in terms of **collecting assessment evidence** to document and validate that the desired results from Stage 1 have been met.

We identify **(T)** **Performance Tasks** (GRASPS) (authentic assessments) and **(R)** **Rubrics** that anchor the unit by providing evidence of student understanding. All **Other Evidence** **(OE)** are summative assessments (authentic assessment, etc..) and **(SA)** **Self-Assessment and Reflections** are formative assessment (pre-assessment, diagnostic assessment, etc...) which will be included in the assessment plan. There should be a tight alignment between the desired results (Stage 1) we seek and the evidence we plan to collect (Stage 2).
