by noah dougherty

a curriculum that may standardize objectives, assessments – with room for personalization and flexibility? while at first glance, it may not seem obvious how the two belong together, the fact is that a high-quality curriculum provides content and lessons to leave teachers time and energy to focus on personalizing learning experiences rather than collect or even develop their own content.
