 Ronna,
To me, this means that our learner goals are as obvious to the students as they are to us.  As teachers, it is important to communicate exactly what we want to accomplish with the lessons that we teach.  The standards contain very good descriptions of the criteria that we are using to establish our learner goals; however, they need to be able to picture how they will know that they have achieve a goal such as being able to "Read for Understanding".

I am interested in different ways people could explain the use of
the word "transparent" as used in the EFF framework. If someone saw
"purposeful and transparent approach to education" and asked, "What
does transparent mean?" what would you say?
