Teaching for Understanding    

How can you experience the kind of depth and satisfaction with school subjects?
The Teaching for Understanding framework, developed in a research project at Project Zero, is designed
​to help you and me reach for that depth of understanding.

An Overview of the TfU Framework

The Teaching for Understanding framework links “four cornerstones of pedagogy” with
four elements of planning and instruction.
  Four Central Questions about Teaching    ​
TfU Element Addressing Each Question
1. What shall we teach?        ​
2. What is worth understanding?   ​
3. How shall we teach for understanding?    ​
4. How can students and teachers know what
    students understand and how students can
​    develop deeper understanding?
1. Generative Topics     ​
2. Understanding Goals
3. Understanding Performances
4. Ongoing Assessment
