In this one-hour webinar, well-known authors and experts **Carol Tomlinson** and **Jay McTighe** highlighted the mutually supportive connections between the Understanding by Design® curriculum framework and Differentiated Instruction. As you plan for the fall and begin grappling with the “learning loss” effects of the pandemic, curriculum and instruction will be the cornerstones for student success.

 

Participants also learned how the Eduplanet21 platform helps schools and districts design and manage an integrated [curriculum](https://eduplanet21.com/curriculum-design/unit-planner/) supported by professional learning, through the [Understanding by Design](https://eduplanet21.com/professional-learning/plus-institutes/understanding-by-design-institute/) and [Differentiation in the Classroom](https://eduplanet21.com/professional-learning/plus-institutes/differentiation-in-the-classroom-institute/) institutes.

 

In this webinar, Jay provided access to [this white paper](https://tinyurl.com/k5pn9az5) on Understanding by Design.
