Learning Targets- Aiming for Understanding

Learning targets, as their name implies, guide learning. They describe, in language that students understand, the lesson‑sized chunk of information, skills, and reasoning processes that students will come to know deeply. We write learning targets from the students’ point of view and share them throughout the lesson so that students can use them to guide their own learning. Finally, learning targets provide a common focus for the decisions that schools make about what works, what doesn’t work, and what could work better.
