| Curriculum Development No Child Left Behind has mandated the assessment of students between third and eighth grade and in high school. Nearly every state has standards and benchmarks that they expect students to master across the different grades. However, local educational agencies must still implement and develop the curriculum that will enable students to fulfill these objectives. The highest quality curriculum prescribe what students should learn and how they should learn it. We help schools develop guiding questions, formative and summative assessments, and pedagogical strategies for ensuring that students fulfill their potential in the learning community. Curriculum Mapping Vertical grade level meetings are often the most important meetings held at schools. Teachers need to know what students have learned before they arrive in their classes and what students will need to know in the future. Curriculum maps will never take the place of vertical grade level meetings. However, these maps provide essential tools for charting a child's progress through school. The maps ensure that disciplinary principles and cognitive skills build on themselves throughout an individuals' schooling. Curriculum Alignment Major textbook companies often indicate that their materials link to specific educational standards and benchmarks. However, local staff members frequently recognize shortcomings in these alignments. Furthermore, teachers, schools and districts often use fantastic material that has not been aligned to standards and benchmarks. Andrew Pass Educational Services, LLC, works with local educational agencies and schools to document the alignments between educational curriculum and resources and standards and benchmarks. Editing School Improvement Materials Districts, intermediate school districts and state departments of education often produce school improvement instruments and kits that they want edited for both grammar and content. However, they often lack in-house staff to do this work. Andrew Pass Educational Services' editorial department is happy to work with you in producing the highest quality materials. Program Evaluations Educational organizations spend financial and human resources on a variety of different programs. Without an evaluation of the effectiveness of these programs, we may be wasting our resources. Andrew Pass Educational Services will develop and implement evaluation processes to determine the effectiveness of your programs. Motivational Speeches and Workshops Andrew Pass Educational Services offers speeches to motivate teachers and students at the beginning of the school year, encourage students as they prepare for standardized tests, and promote team building efforts. Workshops are also available for educators so that they may learn techniques to motivate their students. Lesson Plan Writing Andrew Pass Educational Services, LLC works with organizations to develop high quality lesson plans. We recognize that the best lessons are student centered, promote higher order thinking and relate to the students’ personal worlds. We have consultants who work in each of the core subject areas. Professional Development and Training The best teachers recognize the importance of continuous learning. The best schools facilitate continuous professional development activities. Research demonstrates that the most effective professional development is sustained and directly connected to the work of teaching and learning. Andrew Pass Educational Services, LLC recognizes the importance of on-going staff development. We also recognize that sometimes single workshops will provide teachers with a foundation from which they can continue to develop new knowledge and skills. School Audits Teaching and learning are the core processes of every effective school. However, numerous structures and systems must support these core processes. If these supports do not work effectively students will not achieve their potential. Our audit division seeks to both help clients identify strengths and weaknesses in their institutional systems and structures and improve upon weaknesses. School Newsletter Writing High quality parent communication has been identified as a key characteristic of the best schools. Schools often seek to produce weekly or monthly newsletters but lack the resources to do so effectively. Our writing department is ready to work with schools to produce these newsletters. |
