UbD - Chapter 1 - UbD and Di: An Essential Partnership

This chapter helped to explain exactly what UbD and DI are because after last classes readings, I was still a little confused. The two words that really jumped out from the beginning were instruction and curriculum. The axioms and corollaries made a lot of sense to me, especially after looking up the definition for axiom and corollary. Axiom 5 was the most interesting. I liked how Mr. Axelt provided different “routes” for the students to take based on their learning difficulty for the subject. I would definitely incorporate something like that into my classroom but make sure that every student completed the same amount of work, no matter their level of understanding.
