You will need to answer these questions. It can be between 4-5 pages. This is the beginning part of my dissertation. This will be a mixed-method study. I will provide a template, but you only need these three parts. I  will attach an example of a dissertation prospectus. Make sure to use at least 4 references   and in-text citations
1. Need for the Study (Anticipated Benefits). Who will
benefit from the fact that this research is undertaken? How? Why? Who might be
disturbed by this proposed study? How? Why?
2. Research Problem. What is the research problem you
are trying to solve? [A problem is a situation that, left untreated, produces a
negative consequence for some group, institution, or individual(s). “Girls
score lower on technology attitude scales than boys” isn’t necessarily a
problem; “girls are less inclined to pursue careers in technology-related
fields” is.] What makes it a problem? For whom? Who says so?
3. Research Questions. Based on your problem, what
research questions are you trying to answer? Why and how will answering these
questions contribute to solving the research problem? Remember…a research
question can be answered ONLY with data or information.
I am attaching a page with information that you can use to help answer the questions. Also, feel free to use the resources I attach and your resources.

Part 1:  Read the following narrative
Setting the Stage: Rethinking Curriculum and Leadership Approaches
How long have American schools organized and delivered instruction in a traditional manner based on age and subject? Traditional learning is face-to-face teaching and learning most of us grew up with in K-12 education. It is synchronous, whereby everyone must be in the same room simultaneously to make the learning experience happen for everyone. Students move vertically from grade to grade until graduation at the end of grade 12.
Can this change? 
As the world changes, it’s important to understand that change is a necessity of growth .. knowing that change is hard.. change is complex..change is risky. Nevertheless, we must change how schooling is designed because NOT changing in an ever-changing world is the most significant risk.
The COVID-19 crisis shined a spotlight on significant flaws in our current ways of teaching and learning,  exposing how dependent students have become on adults to direct their learning and how damaging our assessment practices are for intrinsic motivation for learning. 
Curriculum and instructional design must be rethought because of the scale and pace of change taking place in our world.
The speed and degree to which technology, economics, information, politics, climate, and population changes have affected human interaction and behavior with potentially devastating consequences (Bostrom, 2019). While the anatomy of the brain has remained relatively stable in the past few thousand years, the tools and technology used to make meaning of the world and our lives have significantly impacted how students think and interact.
We have entered an era when a spirit of inquiry and innovation is required to help us navigate the increasingly complex, interconnected world and solve transdisciplinary problems of the 21st century and beyond.
Students require new sense-making tools to understand complexity leading to an overwhelming need to teach our children to be adaptable, flexible, lifelong learners. 
The most effective curriculum leaders: 
Embrace the dynamic role and go beyond expectations 
Establish new directions 
Align people and resources 
Motivate participants and aid school improvement processes

Book Review: Hattie’s Visible Learning for Teachers

Assessment Description
Part of an asset-based approach to working with ELLs is recognizing the cultural and linguistic resources they possess. The asset-based approach contrasts with the deficit-based model that once dominated how many viewed second language learners. Schools and educators can help close the inequity gap faced by our diverse student population by exhibiting asset-based behaviors and expectations, focusing on viewing cultural and linguistic differences as assets and not deficits.
Imagine you have been asked to plan a schoolwide event leveraging home and school connections for ELL families. In 150-250 words, create a proposal of the event to submit to your school principal that addresses the following:
Part 1: Schoolwide Event Proposal  (150-250 WORDS)
Title, description, and rationale of the event
Agenda, including time frames and activities
Equipment and supplies
Part 2: Cultural Connections  (500-750 WORDS)
In addition to the proposal, write 500-750 words justifying how the event supports each of the following:
Cultural influences, cultural competence, and social-emotional needs of ELLs in teaching and learning
Intentional strategies for family and community engagement that support and highlight the assets of home language, communication, family involvement, and culture to build family, community, and school partnerships
Inclusive school and classroom environment taking into consideration language acquisition and key environmental factors such as family, community practices, and the role of culture in student learning
The role that family and community practices have in influencing language learning
Alignment to asset-based behaviors and expectations
Support your proposal with 2-3 scholarly resources.

Links to intended learning outcomes (ILO):
LO2 – Critically appraise contemporary frameworks and curricula for the promotion of positive relationships and student wellbeing, and understand their implications for school policy and teacher practice (or organisation policy and practice where agreed with tutor)
LO3 – Critically analyse the impact of school (or organisational) culture on student and staff (or organisational community) wellbeing and identify evidence-informed approaches to building a positive learning environment.
Links to key generic skills:
Engage confidently in the promotion of student wellbeing and effectively address barriers to student learning and wellbeing at the classroom and school level;
Lead and promote effective, ethical and respectful relationships with all involved in the learning community

Preparation, resources and reading packs
Write an evidence-informed briefing paper to present to an organisation/ school’s leadership team to guide them in implementing a whole school approach to implementing the program you analysed in Assessment 2.
This briefing paper will address wellbeing issues or skills in more detail and consider the other supports we need in a school or educational organisation to implement a whole school approach using the Health Promoting Schools Framework. 
This briefing paper will provide an update  about what is known in the research about this issue and its impact on wellbeing and education. It will discuss findings from the research evidence-base regarding effective approaches to prevention of this problem. It will include discussion of the evidence-base pointing to the importance of a whole of organisation approach to promoting wellbeing in relation to this issue, using evidence from the prevention education literature as part of this argument. For example, if you are implementing a SEL program, what does the literature tell us about what SEL provides students and what wellbeing issues SEL is evidenced to address. What do we know about these wellbeing issues in current education settings?
A good way to approach this activity is to identify different parts of the whole school approach that we know and thinking about the different ways each part can be planned for in addressing the issue or implementing the program. The first 4 sections of this book chapter: What do we mean by Whole School Approach?
Actions
might help you support your work. It is from the book: The Educators’ Guide to Whole-school Wellbeing which is available as an eBook in the library and in readings online.
You can present this 2 ways: a) in a written document or b) a recorded ppt presentation. You will be marked on either with the same criteria. There is a Drafting Document in the LMS to help you prepare for this assignment.
If you choose a presentation it should be no more than 20 minutes long and should include a slide show or other visual presentation (Website, SWAY, etc) that includes citations of each part of the argument. You will need to submit a transcript for your presentation which will be checked by Turnitin so any quotes that you use will need to be identified and cited correctly in the transcript.

MGSE Policy on Late Submission of Essays/Assignments and Exceeding Word Limits
Unless an extension has been granted, for essays/assignments submitted after the due date, the mark a student is awarded for their work will be reduced by 10% of the obtained total possible marks for each day the work is late, excluding Saturday and Sunday. For example, if an assignment obtains a total of 70% score, the calculation for a day late penalty will be (70-10)% = 60%. That is, the final score for the assignment will be 60%. The same policy is applied for writing more than 10% or more than 2750 words. 
Using electronic submission means work may be submitted on any day. Assignments that are submitted late and are marked to a fail as a result of late submission may not be resubmitted.
