For this assignment, you will conduct a review of the literature relative to potential interventions that you may choose to include in your action plan. The purpose of the literature review is to identify evidence-centered strategies and practices in the literature that can be used as solutions for both addressing the problem or issue and building organizational capacity that promote continuous and sustainable school improvement. Include specific strategies that can be used for fostering positive change throughout process (ELCC 1.3). This assignment will allow you to consider practices that you might implement as part of your Action Plan for Decreasing or Eliminating the Achievement Gap.
Be sure to include strategies in the following areas:
Shared vision of learning.
Curriculum and instruction.
Leadership and collaboration.
The larger political, social, economic, legal, or cultural context.
In writing your literature review, organize it into sections that present themes or identify trends, including relevant human development and proven learning and motivational theories applicable to the identified problem. In addition, explain why the chosen intervention strategy was selected and support this selection with relevant information gleaned from the review of the literature. Include the decision-making process that should be used when implementing the chosen intervention by discussing who would be involved in the process and why, what would be considered, what decisions were made, and how you will assist school personnel in understanding the identified best practices for student learning.
As you review the empirical articles you have selected, go beyond summarizing. Compare and critically evaluate the literature. Discuss findings and conclusions, and relate the findings to your specific problem and proposed intervention strategy.
Your literature review should be 35 pages, written in APA format, using in-text citations with at least five corresponding references. Be sure to use exclusively empirical literaturestudies in which the author has conducted a study and is reporting the results.
