Instead of taking a test that asks them to recall information, they are synthesizing ideas and building on what they've learned to create something new. And then that ripples back into your design, what activities will get you there? What teaching moves will get you there?"Īt the culmination of a project, students demonstrate what they have learned with a product, performance, or presentation. He elaborates: "If you achieve your objective (with students), what does it look like? What's the evidence that they got it? What's the evidence that they can now do it, whatever the "it" is? So you have to think about how it's going to end up, what it's going to look like. As Wiggins explains in an interview with Edutopia, backward design causes teachers to focus on important learning goals as they design projects. Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe, co-authors of Understanding by Design, call this approach backward design. "Starting with the end in mind" is an oft-repeated refrain in project-based learning.
