(a) Using at least ERIC, Google Scholar, and PsycINFO (or equivalent), search the literature for information relevant to your problem. This will be a literature-based needs assessment to examine your problem and to identify a learning gap in professional development.

(b) Select, locate, and photocopy or download as PDF eight (8) research articles related to your research problem. At least five (5) of these articles must be research journal articles published between 2013-2018 (present and analyze new data). Post the articles in Blackboard. (ISTE-c, 4.a, 4.b)

(c) Prepare a one to two page summary of four (4) of the articles selected and then prepare a one page critical review (see tables 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8 in your text) of the four (4) other articles you have selected for your paper and post in Blackboard. (5-6 pages total; submit all together as 1 word doc.; 8 separate articles reviewed.) (ISTE-c, 4.a, 4.b)

I have attached the book, example and my topic with information needed

Again Please read all instructions carefully before you to get this work.

You only do part 1 than I’ll ask for the other parts after having the first part

Each part is worth 50 points for a total of 200 points. This will be the major project of the course.See rubric below for grading requirements.

*You will develop a research question relating to technology in the classroom or in a corporate work environment with the goal of designing, developing, and implementing technology-rich adult professional development.

*You will research literature to develop your needs assessment.

*You will design, develop, implement, and evaluate the professional development program in terms of deepening teacher knowledge, improving pedagogical skills, and increasing student learning.

*Finally, you will write a research paper synthesizing all the steps and you will communicate findings throughout the project via a blog on Blackboard.You must consult state educational policies/standards or corporate policies (mission statements, vision, etc) and incorporate findings into your final projects.

Example:Are autograding programs (i.e. “robo-readers”) beneficial to teachers who are grading student essays?(Topic) I would then locate at least 8 articles and create a needs assessment from the literature and write a review (Part 1).I would then create a professional development opportunity for colleagues (ex. lunchtime meeting to explain research, etc.) I would ask teachers to use a robo-reader tool for grading a written assignment (Part 2). After 3 weeks, I would have the teachers attend a focus group regarding their experiences. I would research Ohio writing standards and policies for various grade levels.A research paper would be written synthesizing my findings (Part 3).Finally, a blog detailing all parts of this assignment, along with the findings will be maintained on Blackboard (Part 4).

Topic due second week of class:The statement of an educational research problem related to a question that you would like to know the answer to in the area of teaching or training that implements technology.This should be a question in interrogative form.This need not be exclusively educational. State below your research problem why you are interested in this topic and why this is a significant problem. Include your hypothesis (suspected results). Please put this information in a Word document (Do not PDF) and post in Blackboard. (ISTE-c, 4.a)

Part 1:

(a) Using at least ERIC, Google Scholar, and PsycINFO (or equivalent), search the literature for information relevant to your problem. This will be a literature-based needs assessment to examine your problem and to identify a learning gap in professional development.

(b) Select, locate, and photocopy or download as PDF eight (8) research articles related to your research problem.At least five (5) of these articles must be research journal articles published between 2014-2019 (present and analyze new data). Post the articles in Blackboard. (ISTE-c, 4.a, 4.b)

(c) PhD Students:Prepare a one to two page summary of four (4) of the articles selected and then prepare a one page critical review (see tables 4.6, 4.7, and 4.8 in your text) of the four (4) other articles you have selected for your paper and post in Blackboard. (5-6 pages total; submit all together as 1 word doc.; 8 separate articles reviewed.) (ISTE-c, 4.a, 4.b)

Part 2:

(a) Design, develop, and implement professional development to test your hypothesis in part one.The professional development should promote digital age best practices in teaching, learning, and assessment.Answer the following questions and submit together as 1 word doc. in Blackboard. (ISTE-c, 4.b)

• To whom will the professional development be implemented?You may use adults at your school, at your workplace, or another suitable group of adults who will benefit from your research.Depending on your topic, you may use graduate students.
• What components will your professional development include?
• How will you deliver your information to your colleagues?(Meetings, documents, one-on-one conferencing, computer-assisted instruction, etc.)In other words, how will you ‘spread the news’ regarding the findings from your literature review in Part 1?
• What are you asking your colleagues to change about their instruction, knowledge base, or methods of increasing students’ learning?
• Methodology:How do you plan to evaluate the results of your professional development in terms of teachers’ knowledge, pedagogical skills, or students’ learning? (survey, interviews, pre-post assessments, focus groups, etc.)How will you test your hypothesis and why did you select the method chosen? (Justify your choice – use the textbook for this.)

Part 3

(a) Evaluate the results of your professional development.What is the effect on deepening teachers’ knowledge, improving teachers’ pedagogical skills, or increasing students’ learning?(Incorporate findings into part (b) below.)

(b) Write a research paper regarding your research problem (10-12 pages MED students; 12-14 pages PhD students), double-spaced, 1” margins, 12 point Times Roman font. The paper should be in APA 6^th Edition Style Manual. Paper should contain a reference list at the end of the paper, which counts as one of the required pages and APA style citations within the paper. Copies of the journal articles (8) must accompany the paper. (Paper should be submitted as a Word doc. on Blackboard and also uploaded to your online portfolio for MED students.)(See Tables 4.6, 4.7, 4.8 in your text for more details.)

The paper should have the following components (see APA on structure):

• Introduction to the Problem/Research
• Significance of the Problem
• Research Questions– From week 2
• Literature Review-Use Part 1, but rewrite as a synthesis.Be sure to include the needs assessment used to identify the learning gap in professional development in your technology rich environment
• Methodology:Describe the professional development that was designed, developed, and implemented using the research from your needs assessment and final study design. Describe participants, sampling method, context, etc.– Use Part 2
• Identify and describe the assessment tool that was used to assess learning in your technology rich learning environment-observations, surveys, interviews, focus group, control group, etc. – Use Part 2 (Attach surveys or question protocols at the end of your paper.)
• Results:Describe the evaluation results in terms of effectiveness of deepening teachers’ knowledge, improving pedagogical knowledge, and/or increasing students’ learning (quantitative studies will want to include tables, charts, etc./qualitative studies should have quotes)
• Discussion: Identify from your findings, the policies, procedures that will need to be considered as part of the development of a technology rich learning environment– See state policies/standards or corporate missions/visions.On the last page of the paper, please reflect on the overall value of the assignment. (ISTE-c, 4.a, 4.b, 4c)

Part 4

Part 4 serves as a way to share your project and overall findings with your classmates.Throughout the term, you will be maintaining a blog.Cumulatively, the blog point total will equal 50 points.Many of the blog assignments will be worth 5 points.Your final task will be to create a very brief (2-3 minute) video discussing your findings.This video will be worth 20 points.Our final online class meeting will be used to discuss the projects.Your blog should serve to communicate all processes, decisions, and findings from parts 1 – 3.Please include any charts, graphs, tables, etc that you may have used in Part 3 to communicate your findings.
