Fullan and Quinn

Programs for students with exceptionalities must extend beyond the basic literacy and numeracy skills and instead be aligned to students’ needs and abilities and what they will be expected to know and be able to do. Effective leaders ensure that special education teachers design and implement innovative practices that develop deep learning competencies and effective measures for monitoring students’ progress toward their IEP goals and objectives, as well as state and district standards. As a result, students with and without exceptionalities have to be given equal opportunities to engage in rich learning experiences within the general education classrooms in an effort to deepen learning. How will you deepen learning of your staff to be invested in program change and sustainability?
For this Discussion, you will use the same case scenario from Modules 2 and 3. Then, you will consider the six deep learning competencies (Communication, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, Creativity, Character, and Citizenship) to develop a plan for addressing the district mandates. As you begin to reflect on the 6C’s, consider two or three things that will most improve teaching and student learning.
To Prepare:
  • Review Chapter 4 in the Fullan and Quinn text, reflecting on the three elements that deepen learning. Reflect on how these elements would impact the organization in the case scenario.
  • Review Figure 4.2: Deep Learning Competencies—The 6Cs. Consider what the learning would look like for each competency.
  • Consider the five examples presented in the text, reflecting on the similarities each district displayed in moving whole systems toward deeper learning.
  • Review the case scenarios presented in Modules 2 and 3 and reflect on how you would deepen learning of the staff to understand the goals of the new initiative.

By Day 3 of Week 6

Post your plan sharing the steps that you, as the leader, would take to clarify learning goals and develop precision in pedagogical practices to “shift practices” within the case scenario site. Be sure to include reference to the 6C’s and other chapter topics, such as the student learning model and the role of technology.

ElectroMyCycle

ElectroMyCycle, a manufacturer of a new electric motorcycle, has chosen you to design a new network that will let the company scale to a larger size. You learned that ElectroMyCycle’s network will support about 200 employees. The network will include a data center and a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. Users in the campus network will access the servers in the data center from their PCs. For online sales, ElectroMyCycle plans to have a DMZ that connects a web server, a DNS server, and an email server. ElectroMyCycle also plans to open a branch sales office in a city that is about 500 miles from ElectroMyCycle’s headquarters.   Design and document an IP addressing scheme to meet ElectroMyCycle’s needs. Specify which IP address blocks will be assigned to different modules of your network design. Document whether you will use public or private addressing for each module. Document whether you will use manual or dynamic addressing for each module. Specify where (if anywher...
