Design Analysis Three instructional plan
templates constructed by a variety of leaders in
education provide solid examples of what quality
instructional plans should include. The work of
Madeline Hunter dates the furthest back and is
still used today, primarily in the elementary
setting. Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe provide a
more modern approach to curriculum and lesson
design with their model of Understanding by
Design (UbD). Others, as modeled by the New York
State Educational Department, work closely to
align their instructional plans with the Common

to the authors of the textbook, one of the most
frequent misinterpretations in statistics (and in

does this mean? What are the potential dangers to
assessment and learning when one mistakenly
implies causality where only a correlation
between two variables exists? Respond to at least
two of your peers, providing feedback on their
listed dangers of implying causality, and how
these dangers can ultimately affect assessment,
