Based on his 20+ years of experience with the Understanding by Design® framework and newer ideas described in, Leading Modern Learning, 2nd ed. (Solution Tree and ASCD, 2019), Jay will describe a framework for constructing a coherent curriculum and assessment system that integrates 21st Century Competencies (identified by a Profile of a Graduate) with disciplinary content (identified in Standards). The following questions will be explored:
- How can we create a coherent K-12 curriculum and assessment system that integrates 21st Century Skills/Portrait of a Graduate Outcomes with Academic content?
- How can we develop a curriculum that “spirals” around the big ideas and essential questions?
- Are we assessing everything we claim to value (or only those things that are easiest to test and grade)? What evidence should we be collecting?

He will present a blueprint for:
- ensuring greater curriculum alignment across the grades;
- crafting an assessment system for gathering evidence on all valued outcomes (not just those that are easiest to test and grade); and
- enabling greater student personalization while still obtaining worthy evidence for the transcript.
