Over the years, and with several readings of Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe’s Understanding by Design and related books, I have finally managed to din into my own head the importance of teaching students conceptual knowledge that transfers within a domain, and even across domains.

Over the years, I’ve developed a lot a material to aid struggling students As the documents pile up, I don’t always succeed at properly cataloging them.
