What are my essential questions, my big units? How do I decide these and work with these? Instructional design impacts culture because this is where I really think about relevancy and age-appropriate inquiries.

1. How are we going to design a course that creates interest for students and makes them want to participate?
2. What are the big movements of the course? Are they organized around concepts, instead of specific text or skills?
Your Turn:
1. Take a look at my Observation Challenge: What Do You See? (Download the observation guide here).
2. What are your tips for designing a course that encourages students to take intellectual risks? Please share your thoughts in the comments below.
