//1. The argument for backwards design often uses models from outside of education – business, manufacturing, engineering, etc. The point being that you need to know what the end product will look like before you begin. Offer a compelling argument why those models cannot – and should not – be applied to education. What are the dangers of using a manufacturing model in education? What are the dangers of not adopting effective methods used in other spheres of human interaction?// //2. Choose a topic related to Yom Yitzhak Rabin. Identify the grade and type of students you will be teaching. What criteria did you use for choosing your topic? What do you want your students to know, feel, be able to do at the conclusion of this instructional unit?//
