Submit Assignment: Advocacy Action Plan

Due Saturday

Important note: In addition to submitting this critical assessment to Blackboard, it is required that you also submit it to Taskstream. You will not receive a grade for the assignment in Blackboard until you have submitted it to Taskstream. You may submit it to both places at the same time and are not required to wait for instructor approval to submit to Blackboard after submitting to Taskstream. 

In this project, you will generate a five-part advocacy plan to ensure that your community of learners is fully supported and engaged in learning opportunities that meet their diverse, individual needs. Develop a 7- to 9-page plan that includes the following components:

Introduction: Setting the Stage

Set the stage by introducing your advocacy plan components with your classroom/teaching/professional context. This will include information on your learners’ backgrounds (race, culture, SES, language, special learning needs, etc.) as well as your geographic location. Also address any particularly “hot button” issues or current events in your local community that have the potential to inform your students’ classroom experiences (e.g. you live in an area where police/community relations are strained).

Part 1. The Educator’s Impact

Section One: This section is comprised of your personal reflection on your life experiences that inform your background that you bring with you to the classroom/educational setting. These topics will vary depending on who you are and where you live but may include things like your race, your childhood experiences in school, your geographic location as a child or adult, your family’s history with schooling, and so on. Be sure to consider how these issues do or could impact your teaching/educational leadership and make these connections explicit for the reader. (9i InTASC)

Section Two: Reflect on your own strengths and challenges as an educator committed to equality in the learning environment. What areas do you still need or want to learn more about to improve your practice with students/learners? Identify at least two resources or experiences that you need to have/use to address these gaps. Present a short rationale for your choices and your action plan to engage in that work. (9e InTASC)

Part 2. Educational Norms/Professional Interactions (3L InTASC)

One of the challenges in the classroom/educational setting can be effective communication that works well for a variety of learners and variety of messages. One strategy to help you ensure that your communication strategies are responsive and supportive is to develop classroom/educational setting norms that can guide your work as a community of learners.

In this section, develop a set of norms for communication that are appropriate for the age/content that you teach or lead. Be sure to identify exactly how you believe these strategies support the context you described in the introduction to your advocacy action plan. Your choices need to be attentive to the cultural dynamics that are present in your classroom/setting.

Part 3: Peer-to-peer Relationships (3o InTASC)

How do you model and encourage effective peer-to-peer relationships? Describe and explain how you will teach a strategy to your students that encourages relationships that are accepting and responsive to student diversity. Target the choices you make to the age/content that you teach. If you teach adolescents, you might focus on the power of language to include or exclude. If you teach young children, you might focus on strategies for learning to include others in games at recess. Choose one idea and develop it well, ensuring that you are detailing both why you have chosen it and how you would enact it.

Part 4: Family/Student Support (3a InTASC)

You will write this piece of your advocacy action plan as a recommendation to your administration or school grade level team to support family/community collaboration to meet student learning needs. If you work in an educational setting outside of a school, please adjust the audience of your piece accordingly (you might write this for a manager or supervisor instead of principal).

Reflecting on the resources and community supports that you identified during the course readings and activities, identify three effective ways to involve or include families in your students’ learning experiences. Address how these will provide opportunities for family engagement that may not be typically present in your school/educational setting (do not just report on what currently exists in the school site). Be sure that these are approaches that foster collaboration with families and can or would be supported by your school/educational site.

Part 5: Identifying your Role as an Educational Advocate for Students

After completing this course, you have developed a set of skills and understanding that deepens your understanding about your students and their lives and the impact that your teaching has on their experiences. What are you going to do with this knowledge? Educators are advocates for their students by default – you can choose to be proactive with this knowledge and work in areas/issues that are particularly meaningful for you. What role do you choose to take? How do you intend to advocate for your students? Identify at least two ways that you believe you can be a voice for your students and discuss how you envision yourself taking on this role.

**Please submit the entire advocacy action plan as one Word file with clear headers to identify each part of the plan. Please be sure that you are including appropriate in-text citations and references at the end of each section (not at the end of the entire plan) to support your ideas.

Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style

Literature Review Paper

Worth up to 20 points and 20% of course grade..

The learning outcome of this assignment is to understand how to conduct research on a given topic. Also, the outcome includes the application of your research about strategic human resources planning for your HR practice. Research and staying current on HR related topics is a critical need for an HR practitioner as is the knowledge of how to strategically plan for the Human Resources function.

For this assignment, you are asked to develop a literature review on the topic of strategic human resource management. The paper requires you to develop a short (about three to five pages) document on the current thinking and research in the area of strategic human resource management. You may include examples in your paper about how the Human Resources function creates initiatives that are strategic such as targeted recruitment, a Total Rewards program, engagement studies just to name a few, but the main focus on the paper is on the strategic nature of the Human Resource function.

You want to conduct a scholarly review of the literature, and you must have a minimum of three citations (excluding our course materials). Again, your topic is strategic human resource management but you may provide examples of strategic HR initiatives.

Review the paper provided “Writing a Literature Review Paper.” Keep in mind that a literature review is not merely a bibliographic list of resources. A literature review is your synthesis of the scholarly research available on the subject.

Your literature review can be used to inform management for decisions that are pending and/or serve as a basis for mere knowledge sharing. Literature reviews can be stand-alone documents or parts of a larger document. This assignment is to create a stand-alone literature review. Your literature review must use scholarly references and it must be written in a narrative format synthesizing the research from your citations, which must be in presented in APA format. Be sure to use topic headings such as Introduction, Main Findings and Conclusions. The paper will include at the least the following::
