Conceptualize a unit or learning cycle in your course

• What kind of exploratory activity or hands on activity could get students to think about and have experience with the key concept(s) from that unit / learning cycle before direct instruction
• What content/direct instruction would / could you offload to video?
• How would you expect students to practice and apply what they learned from exploration and direct instruction?
• What would “mastery” of the content and skills look like?
