Angela's work includes facilitating school-wide initiatives in the areas of curriculum, instruction, and assessment. Her primary focus has been helping districts design curricula that reflect the values and priorities of the schools, teachers, and students that it serves. In addition, Angela has worked with teachers to link curriculum, assessment, and grading and reporting practice; differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all learners; and examine student work to move student learning forward. Her strengths lie in her ability to help groups of teachers work collaboratively to rethink and reflect upon their practices.
Angela has presented nationally at the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD) Conference. She is also a published author. Her most recent book, Ensuring High-Quality Curriculum: How to Design, Revise, or Adopt Curriculum Aligned to Student Success, provides a comprehensive guide for educators looking to create or revise curriculum, or evaluate existing or commercially available options.
