We met this week to curriculum map which is a good thing. the bad of it will come when assessments are added and then evaluated (we are talking state tests here) to see if there is learning. With so much “content” I can see it driving to learning stuff still and the “what do we do with it” will be an afterthought. I see this as a slow train wreck.

Interestingly, I’ve found the IB to be particularly suited to teaching learning *over* content in both IB Film and IB Art. Both classes assess the students’ vision; the specific content that forms the basis for this vision can be introduced by the teacher, but it can be introduced by the student as well. Both classes allow a great deal of latitude for what is covered.

I think your point about ‘creative collaboration’ hits the mark exactly! I’ve found that what works best for my classes is (aiming towards) a collaboration between myself and the students, or my class and other classes like mine outside the school in introducing content.

I knew there was a reason we work so well together.
