In the well-known book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, author Dr. Stephen Covey describes seven habits that successful people tend to live by. The second habit is “Begin with the end in mind.” Dr. Covey suggests that the most successful people are those who create a vision of the future in their minds. They determine what they want to be and do and then take action to reach that result. This general life lesson can be applied in a classroom setting as teachers plan their lessons backward, starting with the end in mind when planning an entire course, unit, or even a lesson.
