Ideas, insights, and inspiration from the
Authentic Education Team
Developing nature-based curricula through the UbD framework takes outdoor learning from an exciting bonus to a meaningful practice.
AE delivers engaging, consequential, and enriching professional development for educators & we are excited to announce our Summer 2025 PD series.
How can we, as educators, “UbD” lunch? Social connections are integral to development and a huge part of the learning that takes place within the school day.
Despite questions on homework 1 thing is certain: it must be structured with the same intention as classroom learning (in our case, UbD) if it's to be of value.
Resolutions provide a perfect model to bring reflection into the classroom through the backwards-planning framework of Understanding by Design (UbD).
Supporting exploration and knowledge building rather than rushing to adopt a new curriculum is leading to better results for students.
Materials, resources, tools & training providing effective, research-based instruction to develop all aspects of literacy for many kinds of students.
Frameworks like UbD and PBL have been instrumental in shifting ways in which we organically incorporate assessments and feedback.
Students engage more and are more motivated when they realize their impact on the world through direct community involvement.
UbD helps us think beyond test scores and memorization to better support students develop thinking and questioning skills that will benefit them in the future.
