Cultural Inquiry Project Assignment Purpose: The Cultural Inquiry Project has been designed to allow prospective teachers to investigate the connections among teachers, learners, and schools and the communities that the schools serve. The purpose of this project is to encourage a big-picture vision of teaching – a vision that is as comprehensive and as inclusive as possible. You will investigate a school-based program or school initiative in order to learn what issues or challenges the program is intended to address and to consider the implications or outcomes of this program. Learning Objectives: This assignment should help you practice the following skills: · Collecting quantitative and/or qualitative data using online and human resources · Analyzing data for trends and patterns · Observing in classrooms to gain an overarching understanding of learning environments · Synthesizing and interpreting data to determine relationships between students, communities and educational programs/ opportunities · Reflecting on the significance of what was learned Task: You’ll select a school community in which you can research. You’ll also suggest choosing a particular area of interest developed by yourself or in your group if you choose to work in a group. Your area of interest can focus on a particular aspect of school culture or curriculum (e.g., social-emotional learning, arts, STEM/ STEAM, community engagement, project-based learning, bilingual education, standards-based assessment, positive behavioral interventions support, or something else). You will gather information individually, and you will interpret, apply, and present the information. You’ll need to balance your time observing in classrooms and interviewing school personnel. Each group member (if working in a group) should consider interviewing a different stakeholder to better understand multiple perspectives (for instance, one person could interview a teacher, another an administrator, and the third a support staff member like an administrative assistant, counselor, custodian, etc.). Interviewing school personnel doesn’t have to take place in the school, but can still count towards your time “in the field.” You should organize a field notebook (paper or digital) to gather and organize your data collection. You will submit your final presentation at the end of the semester. If you work in a group, you may all have the same presentation, but each individual must submit. Ten hours need to be logged in schools. This will all be coordinated with the Office of Field experience. Need to observe in a classroom. You will be preparing and submitting the following pieces of work for this assignment:
