Did you notice something about what the 3D model says?
It says what the student will do, know and how they will think. It did not focus on the teacher. Our new standards tell the teacher what needs to be done, but focuses the learning on the students.

This is what I meant in my first post about "getting out of the way" of student learning.
This might mean that parents are going to hear complaints like "Mr. Williams doesn't teach, he makes us learn it all on our own." This is kinda right in the sense that the standards are focused on the student actually taking ownership of the learning process, and moving the teacher into a facilitator mode.
Don't worry, we won't leave your kid to work at frustration level, our job is to be the back up for when things get off track. We will be there to focus the learning.
