What are goals?
According to American educator Ralph Tyler, teachers must create measurable outcomes for students by which they learn a skill or acquire a specific knowledge about the content being taught.
What is the objectives-based model?
According to Wiggins and McTighe, these are 'doorways' to understanding that capture the essence of the unit or lesson.
What are essential questions?
Activities built within a lesson are based on these four modes of classroom organization.

Maintaining rapport with your students, respecting their emotions and feelings, and establishing clear expectations for them are representative of this.

What is the content-based model?
This type of unit includes both literature and writing, but the two elements are explored at separate times.
What is focused unit?
Teaching can be described as this because, although you have a specific goal in mind, you will often curve from your guides but end at the intended framework.
What is improvisational?
