Writing a Proposal
Due Saturday
In any initial planning stage, there is a substantive amount of building the framework either by design, personnel, or by budgets. This assignment allows and provides you the opportunity to develop a proposal for the new innovative alternative education school or program you and your group have discussed. Now it is time to write the proposal.
Compose a five-page paper responding to the following points (Chalker, 1996/2006, p. 39):
- An explanation of why and in what manner the program is an alternative to regular education. What makes this alternative education school or program different?
- A description of the assessed need, target population, and methodology for the program development, implementation, and evaluation. Who are the people for this alternative education school or program? Is there a targeted population and if so, is there a criterion to be met? When will the alternative education school or program be implemented and when will the alternative education school or program be evaluated?
- A discussion of how courses of instruction and days of actual student attendance will be affected.
- A recommended length of time for program trial and evaluation of effectiveness. When will there be an additional follow up or needs assessment distributed, collected for data, and results analyzed of what is working and what is not? What will be done with the results from the surveys and assessments?
- How much funding will be required to maintain year one of the new innovative alternative education school or program? (Use Appendix F to assist with the amount of funding you will need to start the school or program.)
- Also include your group’s final versions of the following:
- The makeup of the committee members on the planning team.
- The school or program’s vision and mission statements.
- Goals and objectives for the school or program.
You may want to consider assigning sections of this proposal to members of the group. Then collectively merge the document as one. Be sure however, that the paper speaks as one voice. While your group will craft this assignment together, your group’s Week 3 project manager is responsible for submitting this proposal on behalf of your group.
Support your statements from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.
