This module introduces the real-world barriers OST (Out-of-School Time) coordinators face when designing lessons. You’ll explore TEKS alignment, examine federal 21st CCLC evaluation data, and compare OST lessons to school-day lessons to understand structural differences.
By the end of this module, participants will be able to:
Identify common lesson planning challenges for OST staff.
Understand why TEKS alignment matters in afterschool settings.
Compare how school-day and OST lessons are structured.
Consider how AI could support your planning.
