For this Assignment, you will develop a motivational video for communities outside of Grand City planning their own initiatives for change.
To prepare:
- Review the Cho et al. (2015) case study related to the installation of data systems in a school district. Consider how this example examines the challenges inherent in technological and organizational change.
- Review the Guidera (2015), Chenoweth (2015), and Marsh & Farrell (2015) articles. Think about the arguments for and against educational change based on data. How might you encourage others to support the use of data-informed decision making for educational and social change?
- Review the Sterrett and Irizarry (2015) and Morel (2014) articles. Reflect on the strengths of working collaboratively with all stakeholders as well as any challenges that might need to be overcome.
- In the City Hall location in Grand City, review the District Collaboration for Change video. Imagine you are a member of the Grand City task force. How might you use what you have explored thus far with regard to change, collaboration, and data-informed decision making to motivate the neighboring district superintendent’s staff, faculty, and community leaders in their change efforts?
Create a motivational Power Point Presentation in which you explain:
- Who you are and the specialization expertise you represent on Mayor Keller’s task force.
- The importance of being an educational agent of change and why you believe collecting and interpreting data is essential to the role of educational leader of change.
- The importance of collaboration among cross-specialization groups working to make meaningful change, and why data-informed decision making is essential for a collaborative group to initiate and implement plans for educational and community change.
- Summarize the key points of your presentation.
