Professional Development Proposal

Professional Development Proposal

You will develop a 500-to-750-word proposal for your principal that details your recommendations for a schoolwide implementation of Social Studies content into the Elementary, Middle School, and High School curriculum.

· You will need to explain how you will collaborate with the staff at all school levels to emphasize the need to design and promote a Social Studies curriculum for the district.

· Create a rationale for the need for the schoolwide imitative, including the benefit of including content for a diverse population (Special Needs, English Language Learners, and Gifted Students).

· Describe your plan for implementation, including a timeline for professional development.

· Create a list of resources needed to implement the new Social Studies Curriculum (trade books, technology, etc.)

· Your Professional Development Proposal will need to be submitted using PowerPoint or Prezi.com only.

Professional Development Video Presentation

You will create a 5-to-7-minute professional development video focusing on Social Studies content from your Professional Development Proposal for your colleagues throughout the district using any available video recording device. Use an outline video platform such as Loom, YouTube, or Vimeo to upload your completed video. You will need to submit the link in course. Ensure that your classmates can access and view your linked video.
