 * Evidence 1:** [[file:KutzM Std 7 672 Blueprint.docx]]

**Rationale 1:**
This document is an outline for a hybrid high school Keyboarding class. I have not been able to fully implement the contents of this blueprint of the class, but I have been able to put into affect some of the concepts. Within this blueprint it explains different types of lessons. There are some lessons that require the students to be working independently to complete their work, while other assignments are requiring students to post to a discussion questions online.

**KSD:**
7.K.1 The teacher understands learning theory, subject matter, curriculum development, and student development to plan instruction and to meet curriculum goals based on content standards. Before any of the lessons were written, I took a close look at the curriculum goals that were written in accordance to content standards and benchmarks. After looking at these goals I was able to break the goals down and plan lessons and different types of assessments to reach each of these goals. 7.S.3 The teacher creates lessons and activities that operate at multiple levels to meet the development and individual needs of diverse learners and help each progress. Every classroom of students is diverse. To ensure that I am assessing students’ strengths, I have used several different types of assessments for the students to complete. 7.D.2 The teacher believes that plans must always be open to adjustment and revision based on student needs and changing circumstances. I have been teaching Keyboarding for four years now. The curriculum goals have not changed by much, but my lesson plans have continually changed. Depending on the students’ ability in the class, cooperation, outside events, etc. have required me to adapt the lesson plans accordingly.
