Concept-Based Curriculum and Instruction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main Points<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

As a community-based mentor, concept-based curriculum and instruction, referred to as CBCI throughout the post, has allowed me to think about how I can ensure that the youth I interact with daily are continuing to think critically and making connections with their work inside the classroom to their interactions outside of the classroom. One of my many initiatives is to provide the tools and resources to students and families, showing that secondary education is possible to complete.CBCI will allow me to explore the \u201cOh! The Places You\u2019ll Go Past Year 12\u201d unit with high school students to keep them on track and facilitate the best pathway to their future. Within the what is next process, I could explore concentrations on the importance of academics, extracurriculars, ACT\/SAT, scholarship searching, geographic location, and so many other things. CBCI focuses on the assessment of understanding. Their assessment could be developing a college research diagram that could be done after attending a college fair. Since I work indirectly with students, CBCI has encouraged me to get creative in thinking of ways to get students thinking about life after high school as early as 9th grade. I want to encourage interdisciplinary CBCI by working alongside their current teachers to discover ways I could help navigate what is happening in the classroom but from an outside perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Meaning of CBCI<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

CBCI stands for Concept-Based Curriculum and Instruction. CBCI is working to encourage the classroom and teachers to approach learning from a broader perspective. CBCI encourages a classroom that allows students to be critical thinkers, creative, passionate, and engaged. By using CBCI, the classroom is going away from the typical learning, memorization, and showing knowledge. It allows students to put into practice what they are learning continuously. They are questioning what they are learning and exploring across disciplines. CBCI encourages the use of a Unit Plan that allows educators to design a web focusing on generalizations, interdisciplinary or intradisciplinary concepts, and thought-provoking assessments. As we are progressing through a new generation who are curious, educators need to find ways to keep this new generation engaged with learning, and CBCI is the tool to facilitate a new classroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
