ISTE Coach Standard 4.4: Learning Designer
Coaches model and support educators to design learning experiences and environments that meet the needs and interests of all students. Richard Styner's evidence for this standard includes UDL lesson planning, blended learning design, online assessment, and accessible digital learning environments.
Alignment to the Current ISTE Coach Standard
- 4.4.a Collaborate on Learning Design: The UDL lesson plan and silkscreen tutorial show learning design built around active participation and authentic classroom tasks.
- 4.4.b Support Effective Assessments: The online assessment professional development and use of Google Forms/Flubaroo demonstrate timely feedback and formative assessment.
- 4.4.c Collaborate to Accommodate Learner Needs: The UDL cell parts lesson was designed to support learner variability through multiple approaches to content and demonstration of understanding.
- 4.4.d Model Instructional Design Principles: The tutorial and UDL artifacts model deliberate design choices, clear goals, student practice, and assessment.
