Disciplinary Discussions Using Text Sets (DDUTS) Digital Lessons

- Description
-
Disciplinary Discussions Using Text Sets (DDUTS) is a Designated ELD unit that provides an instructional target for English Learners’ progress in the ELD Standards for the second semester of an academic year. These lessons use text sets (visual texts, written texts, audio and video) to engage students in more rigorous Constructive Conversations that require analysis and synthesis of content across multiple texts.
This unit is unique in that it requires students to engage in research as part of their learning. Students are supported in generating original research questions based on the content of the text sets, and then guided through a research process, which culminates in an oral presentation. The culminating oral presentation integrates research and technology skills, and invites students to demonstrate knowledge that advances their understanding of the topic.
Critical analysis lessons, grounded in the content of the text sets, are integrated into the unit to assist students in preparation for the rigors of SBAC and ELPAC. These specific lessons explicitly teach students how to evaluate relevant evidence and write short responses that use evidence from multiple texts to support a unifying idea.
This unit is presented in digital format. Included is audio for all Models and Non-Models. Lessons consist of PPT slides to be used by the teacher for instructional delivery.
