  • “Navigating the Paradoxes of Technology Leadership: Balancing Potential and Pitfalls in Education”

    Paradoxes of Technology Leadership
    The potential for technology presents both the greatest opportunity and the greatest threat to schools and their leaders. Successful principals as entrepreneurial leaders of technology will be those who decide to think and focus on how best to intersect technology with teaching and learning. Here are three paradoxes we face as technology leaders:
    Technology can improve the interaction and dialogue between teachers and students, resulting in improved student learning, BUT it can also isolate, marginalize, and reduce effectiveness in the classroom.
    Technology can offer its power to all students, BUT it can also segregate and deny that power.
    Technology can assist with engaging students in meaningful learning and promote higher-level thinking, BUT it can also mirror traditional instructional pedagogy
    Assignment:
    Reflecting on these three paradoxes, discuss the following three questions:
    Where do you want to go?
    Why do you want to go there?
    How will you know when you have arrived?
    Compose a two to three page reflection. What role does technology play in the sparking “creativity” within the context of teaching and learning? Ensure your submission meets APA guidelinesLinks to an external site..

  • “Grasping the Interactional Framework for Educational Leadership: Lessons from Drew Dudley’s Everyday Leadership”

    One take-a-way from this course is to grasp concepts that are integral to the Interactional Framework for Analyzing Educational Leadership.  This leadership environment is the interaction between four key elements:
    the leader
    the follower
    the mission (task, goal, etc.)
    interacting in a given (situation (contextual environment).
    The cross-section of these four elements is where leaders tend to either succeed or fail.  The balancing act of these elements is not easy; it is filled with hurdles.  Nevertheless, this framework offers a lens through which to view leadership and the leadership developmental process.
    An additional resource (e.g., video) is provides below (see link) to provide an example of how daily interactions with the world around us give us opportunities to help change lives. Click on the link below and view Drew Dudley’s story about “Everyday Leadership.”

    Increasing the Morale of Teachers
    Create a plan that a principal can use to improve the morale of the teachers. The plan should include five strategies you would incorporate at your current school. Justify the purpose of each strategy listed. You can select the format; however, charts are recommended. Incorporate technology as part of two strategies (minimum). Please go beyond jean days, extra planning periods, and teacher of the month announcements. Teacher retention is an issue across the U.S. Research and talk to teachers and school leaders about strategies for real change. Think about becoming a leader at a school with low teacher morale; how will you keep your teacher?

  • Title: Theoretical and Applied Approaches to Problem and Purpose Statements in Educational Research Section 1: Assessment of a Problem Statement from a Dissertation The problem statement from the dissertation “Exploring the Impact of Technology Integration on Student Engagement in High

    As you learned this week, most educational areas of topical interest can be the subject of either theoretical (basic/fundamental) or applied research, but the research must align with your degree program.
    For this assignment, you will consider your area of interest from both theoretical and applied research approaches. In light of what you learned about the differential focus and scope of EdD and PhD dissertation research and the role of problem and purpose statements in research, write problem statement and purpose statement sentences from both research foci.
    Then, make sure to use all of the information you have learned from the course, textbook, and the resources provided for this assignment to develop the statement of the problem into two complete paragraphs of no more than 250-300 words and cite the relevant literature that supports this ongoing problem of inquiry.
    Organize your work as follows:
    Section 1: Find one dissertation in the library ProQuest database, find the problem statement, then assess the problem statement in one paragraph. Make sure your assessment includes the specific problem sentence and whether this sentence fits the requirements for a strong problem statement as indicated in the lesson materials and resources for the week; be sure to specifically discuss why or why not.
    Section 2: A one-paragraph summary of your topical area of interest
    Section 3: A side-by-side (example below) presentation of problem and purpose statement sentences for your potential study, from both a theoretical (basic/fundamental-PhD) and applied (EdD and EdS) focus. Theoretical Focus
    Applied Focus
    First sentence of Problem Statement
    First Sentence of Purpose Statement
    Section 4: Your full problem statement (2-3 paragraphs) and at least the first sentence of your purpose statement.
    Note: This assignment is an exercise in writing a problem statement and purpose statement. Once you get into the dissertation sequence or capstone process, be sure to follow the templates and specific directions provided for that phase of your studies.
    Issues to keep in mind as you write the problem statement: Begin the first paragraph with “The problem addressed by this study is….”
    Ensure that the problem statement reflects an actual and identifiable problem (i.e., not a purpose, observation, topic, solution, or assertion).
    The problem should clearly identify the problem to be addressed by the study (i.e., What problem is your study going to gain insight into?).
    Succinctly discuss the problem by providing evidence from current researchers (within the past 5 years) who have found through empirical inquiry its continued existence as a problem and cite those scholarly studies (these citations must be empirical evidence citing findings of the study, not author opinion of a problem) that has found evidence of the problem.
    A lack of research alone is not inherently problematic. An inability to find research on your topic might indicate a need to change your focus.
    . Both resources are linked in your Books and Resources for this Week
    Make sure you identify: Who is impacted by the problem (e.g., individuals, organizations, industries, or society) as described by researchers in the scholarly literature? What is not known that should be known about it as described by researchers in the scholarly literature? What could the potential negative consequences be if the problem is not addressed in this study as described by past researchers in the scholarly literature? Be specific.
    Length: 2-3 pages, excluding the title and reference pages.
    References: This is a knowledge demonstration check and does not have a specific required number of references; please include references if they are in support of your problem statement

    Using the downloaded and provided M5 Curriculum Map Assignment (and template) and Bloom’s Taxonomy, The section below is already completed and uploaded as a resource. I only want the paper portion (1-2 pages) written below.
    Make sure your course competencies are aligned with your program outcomes. Identify which of the program outcomes is addressed by each course competency. (Hint: You might only use 3-4 of your program outcomes you created in Module 5. While an academic program may have more than six outcomes, not every course will address every program outcome. It’s also possible you may use the same program outcome in multiple weeks.)
    Ensure your competencies are measurable and include both the condition and criteria as well as the taxonomic verbs. One key component to remember: taxonomy level somewhat corresponds to level of education. At the undergraduate junior and senior levels, as well as graduate level, courses should have more course competencies at the mid-to-higher levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
    After writing your course competencies, in a paper format discuss why you selected these particular competencies, how they align with the program outcomes, and justify why the competencies you selected are appropriate for the course level (i.e., undergraduate freshmen, sophomore, junior or senior levels, or graduate education).
    The above section is already completed and uploaded as a resource. I only want the paper portion written below.
    The paper portion of this assignment should be 1-2 pages, not including the references page, and follow appropriate 7th edition APA guidelines.
