If you haven't had a chance to read Schooling By Design (UBD applied to School-wide concerns), do so. Very valuable for administrators and teachers working on department-wide or school-wide curriculum.

I was way into UBD when I taught at Durham Academy several years ago - need to pick up that literature again and evaluate what I"m doing now...good things to be reminded about as we continually strive to be better.
