For the most part this chapter finalizes the idea of DI and UbD and how you might be able to apply the ideas from the book to real life. This chapter talks about two models and how they can be broken down and used in classrooms. It also presents three questions that need to be answered as far as the two models go. It goes on to then state that if all of the questions are answered then the students will be able to succeed with the material. That is pretty much the chapter in a nut shell.
We as a group really loved this chapter because we could all connect with the stuff in the chapter and we all are able to apply stuff like this in our classrooms to meet the needs of the students. We all believe that by using these two that we will be able to become a more effective educator which will maximize the strengths of all of the students. We also feel that we need to follow these two models and step out of our comfort zones in order to become an effective teacher. This is a very good chapter because it sums all of the stuff up for us.
