I attended a workshop on the framework. Since I had used
the framework this past school year, as we were supposed
to do, I thought the trainer would be at least as familiar
or more familiar than I was with it. She kept saying that
kids would have to do research and things like that in
order to do well on the mct2. She also said a good many
times that we should teach on Webb's level 4 even though
level 4 won't be tested. When we got to the
compentency/objective for "tools of persuasion", we looked
at a sample test item for it. I commented that the
students would absolutely have to know the definitions of
all of the "tools of persuasion" or they would have no way
to select the correct answer on the test. The trainer had
this really shocked look on her face and said it sure
looks like they will.
Have any of you been to training and if so what was your
experience?
