Educational Law Final Project

The study of school law is a major component in school leadership preparation programs. Future school leaders need knowledge of the law as well as the resources to support their potential decision and policy making in various legal dilemmas. Thus, the final project for this course is comprised of two parts, a PowerPoint and an Educational Law Toolbox. The goal of this two-pronged summative assignment is to create a visual PowerPoint (that can be used for training staff and teachers) and to create a toolbox of legal and ethical resources that will support your role as an effective educational leader.

  1. Part 1: Educational Law Professional Development Session.For this portion of the final project, you will create a PowerPoint based on your outline from Week 4. Using the instructor feedback from your previous submission, you will turn the outline into a 10 slide PowerPoint presentation (not including separate title and reference slides) in which you develop a policy proposal for implementing the changes that you seek.
    The purpose of this PowerPoint is to practice and gain feedback as you present introductory information on your chosen topic. Ensure that you are using graphics in a meaningful way and that you are using each section of notes (under each slide) to elaborate on the key points of your slide. The notes section is for you to be able to use it as a script for what you would say during the presentation.
    Format your presentation according to APA as outlined
  2. Including a reference slide with a minimum of five outside sources. Citations should be used on the slides as well as in the notes.

The Educational Law Professional Development Session PowerPoint

    • Must document all sources in APA style outlined
  • Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined.
  1. Part 2: Educational Law Toolbox.For this portion of the final project you will modify the following weekly assignments using the feedback you have received from the instructor and/or peers as well as the increasing knowledge base acquired from your work in this course.

    Section 1 – Week 1 Discussion 2 – The Six ISLLC Standards Resource List
    Section II – Week 2 Assignment – Religious Expression Paper
    Section III – Week 4 Discussion 1 – Undocumented Students Resource List

    · Standard 6: An education leader promotes the success of every student by understanding, responding to, and influencing the political, social, economic, legal, and cultural context.

    List one or two overarching themes embedded in the standard you are assigned.

    · Rules and responsibilities of educational leaders

    · Cultural diversity in learning.

    Suggest one professional resource. The resource should be relevant to the early childhood field as well as “provide guidance and insight about the traits, functions of work, and responsibilities expected of school and district leaders” (Council of Chief State School Officers, 2008, p. 5). 

    Shore, R. A., Lambert, R. G., & Shue, P. L. (2020). An Evaluation of Leadership Professional Development for Early Childhood Directors. Leadership and Policy in Schools, 1-14.

    Assess and describe your knowledge of the ISLLC conceptual framework and standards according to your personal leadership experience and goals. What areas are your strengths? Do you have any concerns about the standards or the framework or goals for further development in this area?

    I understand that the conceptual framework is designed to provide high-level guidance and insight about the traits, functions of work, and responsibilities expected of school and district leaders.  My areas of strength are the creation of a conducive and motivating learning environment, promoting the safety of students, acting ethically, building and sustaining positive relationships with families and caregivers, and advocating for children. I understand the rules and responsibilities of educational leaders. I also understand various ways of enhancing inclusivity in learning. I can make every student feel confident in his/her cultural background by encouraging them to speak about it. My concern would be to make sure that I respond to the cultural and economic context and the diversity of students.

     

     

    RESPOND FROM Elizabeth Booth

    Annette,

    I really enjoyed your post! I to have concerns about the cultural context of diverse students. I have very little personal experience with various cultures and ethnicities.  Just recently I had a child in my class whose family only spoke Spanish. I found it really difficult and kind of awkward to communicate and establish a strong relationship with them. On the one hand my center was not prepared or had the tools to communicate effectively with the family which is something that our center need to improve, and quickly! On the other hand I have not had a lot of professional development in diversity either. This is where I would like to gain more training and become more comfortable with. The NAEYC Professional Preparedness Standards (2010), Standard 4 Connecting with Children and their Families, states that educators should have various strategies and resources. This is an area that I need to grow in.  I also need to grow in the area of legality as I have not had much experience in this aspect of the field either. Since school leaders are required to “solve, address, and understand problems (Stader, 2013),” I know that this is something I need more professional development in.

    RESPONSE FROM Christina Elderbrook

    Elizabeth,

    I 100% understand.  I live and work in a very small town with no real diversity of people.  I have had many classes and training seminars on cultural diversity but I think until I have a child who speaks another language or from another country it is hard to hands on understand.  I have many cultures in my classroom (single parents, foster kiddos, low income, high income, etc) but I do not have many children from different ethnicity.
