  Case: What do you think your roles are in developing goals and objectives for your curriculum?
If you are asked this question in a job interview for a teaching position: What are some things you should avoid when responding to this question? What might be some important points to stress that would get the interviewer's attention? How would you respond to this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I believe that all activities, assessments, and lessons should be aligned with the curriculum. I think it is important to set goals for our students. For example, as a school we have created "I can..." statements for each of our standards. On the board we display our standards, essential questions, and "I can..." statements. For example, this week my lessons's "I can" statements are: 1)I can explain the structures of national governments in Latin America. 2) I can apply economic terms to describe the current economic conditions of Latin American countries. The "I can..." statements give students a clear picture of what exactly they should be learning and getting out of the lesson.
