Episode 9: The Six Facets of Understanding
This week, I am joined by Xuemeng and Wendy, students from China and Taiwan, respectively, to discuss the six facets of understanding described by Wiggins and McTighe. We also return to UDL and consider how to implement it as part of effective instructional design. Our readings were Chapters 4 of Wiggins and McTighe's Understanding by Design and Chapter 5 of CAST (2014) Universal Design for Learning: Theory and Practice.
