This research proposal examines teacher classroom websites and the content that engages parents in student learning. The researcher aims to determine which content on teacher websites motivates parents to access the sites more frequently and engage with their child's learning. The proposal provides background on the rise of school websites for communication and typical features like calendars, assignments, and student work. It also discusses barriers to parent engagement online like the digital divide or poor website design. The purpose is to explore how specific content can increase parent motivation and involvement through classroom websites. A qualitative case study of a K-12 private school is proposed to address these questions.

This document discusses quantitative priority setting (QPS) for the CGIAR to identify high-value activities, opportunities to increase efficient use of resources, and whether funding is sufficient. It proposes a methodology involving standardized technology evaluation templates, modeling suites, and metrics. Key points include developing common templates and models, quantitatively evaluating technologies and CRP targets, improving existing models, and identifying priority areas for tool development by specialized centers and CRPs to guide funding allocation decisions across the CGIAR. It also emphasizes the importance of identifying the right goals through a global stakeholder process that monitors progress and proposes priority changes over time.
