=Axioms for Curriculum (Team)=

> > >> = = =Team KAMAC : 2 Axioms= ==== 1. ** Curriculum is enhanced by the use of digital tools to facilitate the ongoing process and delivery. ** A web-based curriculum promotes the creation, revision, distribution, collaboration, and maintenance of a curriculum. Continuous professional development needs to be provided for the curriculum writers and other stakeholders to ensure that the curriculum is implemented with fidelity.==== ====2. ** National or state curriculum development needs to address differentiation and technology.** Utilization of state or national standards would enable the local districts to provide guidelines that would enhance differentiation and assist teachers with technology integration within the local curriculum. ====
 * Directions**
 * 1) This week's **team Facilitator** should create a new thread titled, **Week 2: Axioms for Curriculum.**
 * 2) In your team discussion forum, discuss the following:
 * //Does your school or system have axioms that support creating a collaborative learning community that educates all students?//
 * //Is the collaborative process successful? What makes it succeed or not succeed?//
 * //Is technology used to foster collaboration in your school system, and if so how? Is its use widespread or limited?//
 * 1) With your team, identify and describe __**two**__ additional axioms that relate to curriculum based on your current experience and understanding. In your discussion, be sure to discuss the following:
 * //A broader perspective of curriculum development (i.e., state and national influences)//
 * //The role of technology in curriculum//
 * //The inclusion of students with special needs and abilities and how technology can support those needs//
 * //The role of professional development//

> The purpose of this team discussion is to explore the axioms presented by Oliva and contribute to a class list of new axioms.
 * 1) By Monday, the **team Reporter** should post your team’s two developed axioms as a new thread in the **Week 2: Axioms for Curriculum** whole group discussion forum to share with the class.
 * 2) Between Monday and Tuesday, individually review the curriculum axioms posted by each team in the **Week 2: Axioms for Curriculum** whole group discussion forum. Please respond and provide comments or follow up questions, as you deem appropriate.
