Benchmark community teaching plan

Assessment Description

The purpose of this assignment is to plan and develop an outline for your community teaching plan and gain feedback from a community health representative in your local community. The teaching plan developed in this assignment will be used to develop your Community Teaching Presentation due in Topic 5. Complete the following:

  1. Identify the demographic that you would like to give your presentation to and then select a community site where that demographic can be found.
  2. Complete the “Community Teaching Acknowledgement Form,” found in your topic Resources. This form requires a handwritten signature from the appropriate representative selected, allowing permission for you to teach your selected topic at that site.
  3. Complete the “Community Teaching” template resource, found in your topic Resources. This form will help you organize your teaching plan and create an outline for the written assignment due in Topic 5.
  4. Review the plan with the representative that signed the “Community Teaching Acknowledgment Form” and request feedback (strengths and opportunities for improvement). The feedback received will be used to refine the teaching plan in Topic 5.

Develop plans for innovative practices that help meet the needs of diverse learners. Explain why the proposed technology is expedient, appropriate, and relevant to the specific educational setting.

Action Plan for Technology Innovation

This paper has two four-page sections. Instructions also attached in PDF format.

Action plan (4-5 pages) proposing implementation of appropriate and relevant technology, evaluating that technology in terms of meeting diverse needs of students, and analyzing the implications of initiating this change.

This assessment will apply the theoretical foundations and best practices for educational innovation with technology. In the assessment, address how to bring about change within a school and how to implement specific technologies in an action plan.

Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency: Develop plans for innovative practices that help meet the needs of diverse learners.
Explain why the proposed technology is expedient, appropriate, and relevant to the specific educational setting.
Evaluate how the proposed technology is most appropriate for meeting the diverse needs of students.
Analyze the implications of initiating the proposed technology innovation through an action plan.
Present a rationale for action plan decisions, including the choice of who to involve and how to involve them, the timeline for implementation steps, and required resources.

Instructions

Part 1: Evaluation and Analysis
Submit a 4–5-page paper in which you:

Describe briefly the technology you are proposing to implement through your action plan.
Provide a rationale for why this technology is expedient, appropriate, and relevant to your school.
Base this determination on collaborations with stakeholders at the school or on publicly accessible data through the school or district Web site or community publications.
Evaluate how this technology is most appropriate for meeting the diverse needs of students, including cultural background, developmental and readiness levels, language, speed of learning, access to technology, and so on. For example, how might the appropriateness of the technology be affected if students only have access to technology via smart phones rather than having access to laptops or iPads?
Use peer-reviewed literature to support your evaluation.
Analyze the implications of initiating this change through your action plan. Address the potential impact on students, teachers, and school-wide programs.
Your analysis should align with theories of institutional change, systems theory, and/or an educational change model.
Your analysis should be supported by the professional literature and may reflect professional feedback.

Part 2: Action Plan Proposal
Design an action plan that includes the following components:

A brief analysis of the change you are planning to implement.
A description of the actions that need to be taken to implement the plan, including a rationale for why these actions need to happen.
Be sure to indicate if any steps need to happen concurrently or in a certain sequence.
A list of the individuals who are responsible for each specific action.
Consider who has the time and is appropriately situated to take on these responsibilities, but also consider who is most capable of keeping the objective of meeting the needs of diverse learners at the forefront of the planning and implementation.
If it is not clear why an individual is assigned to a certain task, be sure to include an explanation.
A list of who should be consulted or informed about the project and its findings.
In referring to individuals, do not use names, but refer to the position they hold in relation to the plan, such as PTA Chair, ESL Lead Teacher, et cetera.
A rationale justifying why giving awareness to these individuals is relevant and important to the goals of your project.
Note: Be sure to include parents and community members.
A description of who will monitor the progress, document the effects of implementation, and gather any data that is acquired.
A timeline of the actions to be taken and the monitoring steps.
A list of resources needed to carry out the action plan and a rationale for their inclusion.
Consider the resources that may be needed within your school and district as well as resources that may be needed from the community. You will also want to think about resources for training and supporting teachers in the classroom.
Submit both parts, the paper and your action plan proposal, for assessment. Refer to the scoring guide to ensure that you meet the grading criteria for this assignment.

Explain, in your own words, how each of the issues or trends identified by Keating impacts nursing education. Examine the role that faculty development would play in mitigating the impact of the issues and trends on nursing education.

Faculty Development

Review the 6 “major issues and trends in nursing education as they apply to the nursing faculty role in curriculum development” identified by Keating (2014, p. 57), available in this week’s University Library Resources.

Write a 900-word paper in which you:

o Explain, in your own words, how each of the issues or trends identified by Keating impacts nursing education.
o Examine the role that faculty development would play in mitigating the impact of the issues and trends on nursing education.

Analyze/evaluate pros and cons of each alternative solution – list the pros and cons (advantages and disadvantages) you can predict could result from each possible alternative if chosen and implemented as the solution to the problem (decision).

Complete the case study.

  1. Define the problem – ask yourself what is the underlying problematic circumstance/situation in the case information? DO NOT identify symptoms of the underlying core problem (issue). This process of problem identification is facilitated by listing all the “problems” you believe exist in the case, then, attempting to detect if there is a “direction” or “trend” in all of the “problems” you’ve identified.
  2. Gather pertinent facts – list the facts that relate only to the problem statement.
  3. Develop/propose alternative solutions – list all the ways that the problem could be dealt with in order to bring about a solution. Important: you list alternatives whether you agree with them or not.
  4. Analyze/evaluate pros and cons of each alternative solution – list the pros and cons (advantages and disadvantages) you can predict could result from each possible alternative if chosen and implemented as the solution to the problem (decision).
  5. Make a decision and defend your choice – make a statement of your decision (one of the previously stated alternative solutions), i.e., the alternative solution that emerges, based upon your analysis, as the best. This is your decision. State your reason(s) for choosing this alternative solution for implementation as your decision. The best way to defend your decision is to state why you did not choose the other available alternative solutions.
