RELEVANCE to the discipline - teach students what we think is important for them to know, practical, that they can use (like "metaphor") RELEVANCE for students - focus on life lessons, things with broad appeal (like "identity" or "what it means to be an American") DIVERSE - with regard to the materials and the approaches to learning them (appeals to a variety of backgrounds and learning styles)

SCAFFOLDING (for students) - build from objectives to goals, assessments ALIGNMENT (for teachers) - goals, standards, assessments, lessons, and activities correspond, make sense together, connect TRANSPARENCY (for teachers) - easy flow so that someone else could teach it, detailed enough that a sub could follow it, consistent
