LONG-RANGE PLANNING
Long-Range Planning
Long-range, or strategic, planning is a way to identify what you
want in the future and how you are going to get there. Whether
you are looking at school buildings or curriculum, the
components of the planning process are the same.
First, a group needs good information on which to base its
planning. What is working well now? What are the problems?
What are the external factors that will impact your future? Those
are some of the questions that group members might need to
answer in order to define a long-range plan.
Imagine, for example, that you are looking to prepare a long-range plan for a middle school building
•First, you identify what everyone
1) likes about the current building and
2) what they see as the problems/potential problems with the building.
•Gather as much information as possible about the building. For example, you might gather a structural and safety
survey of the building, forecasts for school population growth/decline, and the latest thinking about good school
design.
•To gather additional background data, use the SWOT analysis technique to define the current reality and likely
future impacts.
•Engage all interested parties in creating a common vision for the future of the school building. What does it look
like when it is the way you want it to be? (See previous Great Meetings article, including Visioning the Ideal:
Wish, Want, Wonder and Defining the Vision.)
•Use the group's "vision" to identify specific goals you want to achieve. Agreement on the vision and goals gets
everyone headed in the same direction. If you don't know where you're going, it will be impossible to find the
right road to get there.
Once you have collected the background data
and have a set vision and goals, then you can
work on a plan for how to get from the present to
that vision; that is the roadmap to your goals. For
each goal, you will need to develop a series of
tasks that must be accomplished over time to
meet the goal. Make sure that plan specifies each
task, the budget/staff implications, the person
responsible, and the date by which it needs to be
completed.
UNIT PLANNING
Unit planning involves organizing a series of related lessons around a
central topic or theme. It can be designed for any length of time, from a
week to a whole quarter. The K to 12 Curriculum Guide for Social
Studies provides examples of units, such as focusing on the self, family,
school, and environment in Grade 1. In Grade 6, a quarter may contain
multiple units, each exploring different themes and issues within the
overall theme. When planning a unit, it is important to consider
elements and processes such as the unit title, time requirement, list of
topics, target students, rationale, goals, objectives, teaching strategies,
resources, and evaluation procedures. These elements help ensure a
well-structured and effective unit plan.
LESSON PLANNING
Lesson planning communicates to learners what they will learn
and how their goals will be assessed, and it helps instructors
organize content, materials, time, instructional strategies, and
assistance in the classroom. A lesson plan is the instructor's road
map of what students need to learn and how it will be done
effectively during the class time. Lesson plans are essential tools
for educators, aiding in imparting knowledge, skills, and
competencies. They guide content delivery, organization,
communication, and assessment.
Through careful planning, educators engage students with
accessible content, align activities with objectives, and ensure
relevance. Lesson planning is essential to effective teaching,
requiring thoughtful consideration and the implementation
of various strategies. Example of lesson planning is a
teacher’s guide for facilitating a lesson. It typically includes
the goal (what students need to learn), how the goal will be
achieved (the method of delivery and procedure) and a way
to measure how well the goal was reached (usually via
homework assignments or testing). This plan is a teacher’s
objectives for what students should accomplish and how they
will learn the material.
THE IMPORTACE OF INTSTRUCTIONAL PLANNING
What is the importance of instructional planning?
◦Instructional planning is an important way for teachers to strategically
decide what their students will learn and how they will learn it. An
important factor of instructional planning is using differentiated
instruction to meet the various needs of all students.
What is instructional planning and its importance?
◦Instructional planning includes not only planning what students will learn,
but how they will learn it. Planning should include both short-term goals
and long-term goals, and for students with exceptionalities, should
address the goals on their Individualized Education Program (IEP).
Plans for teaching help in organizing the class and saving
time. Teachers can use lesson plans to apply appropriate
strategies. The lesson will be taught better by the teacher,

teachers understand the goals of an instructional module.
Allows the teacher to translate the curriculum into learning

LONG-RANGE PLANNING
Long-range planning can be defined as
the processes used to implement an
organization’s strategic plan. It’s about
aligning the business’ long-term goals and
developing action plans in line with the
strategic plan.
Depending upon the type of business, the
time scale for long-range plans can vary from
three years through to one or two decades.
This is particularly the case for organizations
such as utilities, large-scale high-tech
manufacturers, chemical plants and research
companies where the time and costs
associated with investments is such that
plants take years to build and returns are
measured over long periods.
•Short-term planning deals with the here
and now. Medium-term plans address
actions intended to permanently resolve
short-term issues. Long-range planning is
about changing the direction of the
organization to meet its long-term goals
and insulate it from the upheavals that
periodically affect the economy.
•The History of Long-Range Planning During the
1950s and 1960s, the economy was stable and
growing. Organizations experienced substantial
growth, and planners started using numerical
theory to extrapolate growth predictions. However,
the landscape changed in the ‘70s, and the
economy suffered an upheaval due to the US’s
inability to maintain the gold standard. Static long-
range strategies of the time could not cope with
these upheavals, and many but not all businesses
abandoned long-term planning for some time.
•Subsequently, a number of events caused further
economic instability, including the 1973 oil crisis, the
2008 housing bubble and banking crisis, and more
recently, the impact of trade wars. Despite this, savvy
organizations adopted long-range planning strategies
intended to cushion the business from unpredictable
upheaval through techniques, such as the SWOT
analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and
Threats), and planned accordingly.
