Reeves (education, Susquehanna U.) argues that teachers need to shift their attention from teacher performance to student learning when designing instruction. She focuses on establishing learning objectives and the thinking and conceptual understanding that underlies that work, and explains how to design instruction that is centered on student learning. She describes the language of objectives, objectives involving reading and writing, checking their validity, the knowledge needed to create them, and steps for developing assessments, checklists and rubrics, designing learning activities, and lesson planning.
