As a school leader, you will be required to provide training or professional development to teachers on a variety of subjects. One such topic is helping teachers use sound educational theory to inform their practice, specifically in the education of diverse student populations. The purpose of this assignment is to create a polished and professional, narrated presentation that could be used to educate teachers on how to use theory to develop appropriate learning experiences for all students. Based on your field of study and student population, create a PowerPoint presentation in which you:
Provide a summary of four learning theories that support the instruction of diverse students. (One of which must be Bloom’s Taxonomy). Include:
Name of theory and theorist.
Basic description of the theory.
Explain why applying this theory to classroom practice would enhance the learning of diverse student populations.
Describe two instructional activities teachers could implement that are aligned with this theory.
This presentation should be designed so it can be posted online in an educational forum or on your school website for teacher professional development. Incorporate appropriate narration, animations, transitions, and graphics as well as speaker notes for each slide. The speaker notes may be comprised of brief paragraphs or bulleted lists. Review the “Creating a Successful PowerPoint Presentation” document in the resources for additional assistance in completing this assignment.
Support your presentation with at least three scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources may be included.
Length: 8-10 slides (not including the reference slide)
Include verbal narration for this presentation
Notes Length: 150-250 words for each slide

Lesson plans are a road map to facilitate teaching and learning. Lesson planning is an important aspect of effective teaching because it focuses the teaching on the students. To maximize effectiveness, teachers should be intentional during the lesson planning process to ensure alignment between the intended student learning outcomes, assessment evidence, and learning activities.
Recall that in Backward Design, “teachers build effective lessons in three steps. You start by identifying desired results, then how students will be [assessed], and finally what strategies you will use for instruction” (Wong & Wong, 2018, p. 261).
Assessment is a critical component of the instructional planning process and should have a prominent role in the learning process. This means that teachers should plan to integrate multiple forms of assessment and use the data to understand how well their students are learning the content and skills specified by the learning objectives. In this task, you will demonstrate how to plan for alignment between your learning objectives and your assessment plan.
With a clear set of objectives and assessments in place, you are eady to start planning your lessons. When lesson planning a teacher needs to think about what instruction they need to deliver to their students and what activities their students need to engage in to practice the skills identified by the lesson objectives. So when lesson planning, teachers need to think of their actions and their students’ actions. In this task, you will demonstrate how to plan your instructional moves and learning activities for your students that support the learning outcomes.

Align formative and summative assessments with learning objectives to support, verify, and document learning. [InTASC 6b]

In about 500 words, describe an interesting, controversial issue that you care about in the field of education. Why is this issue important? Describe it from a neutral perspective, meaning that the reader cannot guess what your opinion is.

Identifying a Research Topic
The graduate lays the foundation of a research project or study by identifying a topic, problem statement, the purpose of the investigation, anticipated obstacles, and ethical considerations.
For this task, you will choose an MSCIN capstone research topic and define a problem statement. You will then select the type of research that would address that problem: an action research study with an instructional intervention for students or teachers or an applied research project, both of which are examples of applied research. If you choose an applied research project for your capstone research, you will choose from an evaluation of curricular or instructional practices; an evaluation of an educational program; a creation of a professional development program; or a development of an organizational program, process, or tool.
Once you select the type of capstone research, you will write your research question(s) and determine the product (an instructional intervention; an evaluation tool; a professional development program; or an organizational program, report, manual, or tool) of your proposed research. You will also describe the purpose of the proposed research and explain the obstacles that you anticipate having to address as you move forward.
