Our Learning Process

As was discussed today, several components of the learning process must be in place for the desired learning to occur. If the resulting data indicates there are gaps in understanding, we can examine the steps in the process.

• If the data is correct, we look at the assessment. 
• If the assessment was aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS), we try to determine whether the learners were engaged in their learning.
• If the learners were engaged, we examine whether the teaching was effective for the students' understanding. 

Examining the components of the learning process could provide insight into where the process is breaking down. Knowing which part of the learning is causing the disconnect, can be helpful in identifying the way to correct it.
