The school district wants to improve instruction to better prepare students. A needs assessment will determine what professional development teachers need in areas like content mastery, teaching strategies, social-emotional learning, and more. Over 1,750 teachers will complete surveys and focus groups. Results will be used to design training for teachers before the next school year. The goal is to support teachers and help more students succeed.

Program Evaluation Plan (Part 3)
Goals of Evaluation
Evaluation refers to the act of checking various things thoroughly in order to characterize their worth or value, with reference to a certain context. In the field of education, the amount of success in a person’s aims can only be determined through evaluation. Therefore, there is a very close relationship between various aims and evaluation. The main goals of evaluation in schools are as discussed below. The first goal of evaluation in the field of education is to create an educational program ("Evaluation in Teaching and Learning Process | Education", 2020). Through evaluation, evaluators and the school management can build a given program of learning among the students. This is after gathering and checking various factors in order to find what program will fit and make a positive impact in the school. This involves consulting all the stakeholders of the program and developing strategies that will ensure the development of a good program.
The second goal of evaluation is assessing the effectiveness of the program. Evaluation ensures that the developed program is up to standards and serves the purpose that it was intended to. It helps the evaluators to check if the teaching strategies and techniques are being applied properly. The third goal of evaluation is to ensure improvement of the program. Through evaluation, evaluators can gauge the impact of the program on the school and learners. They can also identify various things that can make the program more effective. It acts as an in-built monitor in the program in order to review the progress of the program from time to time. It also gives feedback regarding the design and the implementation of a given program. Through such assessments, the school management can know where to work on, and what they need in order to enhance effective programs in teaching and learning.
For instance, in our case, evaluators can comfortably tell whether or not the program is helping girls become more superior in math. If not they can suggest better or other strategies that will make positive impact.
Cultural Issues Affecting the Program
Culture can influence how different people view things. An individual’s culture and upbringing can affect their way of processing information. Among the cultural issues that might be faced in the evaluation plan include cultural stereotypes. Some students believe that they cannot perform as expected in school or in a particular subject due to lack of preparation from their home environment. This makes them believe they do not have enough potential to do well in a given subject when they get to school. For instance, some students may not have calculat.

Assessment of Future Needs, Costing the Future Needs.pptxDrHafizKosar
A difference between "what is" and "what should be" is referred to as a "need." The term "need" describes the difference between a desired condition (what should be) and the current situation (what is). The space between the present and the future is what is needed. Ideally, needs assessments are initially conducted to determine the needs of the people (service receivers for example parents, students) for whom the organization or system exists. It can be defined specifically as:
“Needs assessment sets priorities and determines criteria for solutions so that planners and managers can make sound decisions for achieving desired goals.”
1.3. What is Need Assessment?
Needs assessments (White, J., & Altschuld, J. 2012) focus more on goals and results than on the steps taken. For example, the goal might be students becoming good readers, and the steps include reading practice and effective teaching. Data is collected using common methods and strategies designed with specific goals in mind. The choice of methods depends on how well they fit the objectives and the specific situation of the need’s assessment. Priorities and criteria for solutions are established to help planners and managers make smart decisions.
1.4.1. Key Components of Assessment of Future Needs:
Here are some key components of future needs Assessment:
1. Demographic Analysis:
Understanding population growth, age distribution, and migration patterns to predict student enrollment and educational infrastructure requirements.
2. Technological Trends:
Evaluating the impact of emerging technologies on education, including the need for digital resources, online learning platforms, and technology infrastructure.
3. Economic Considerations:
Analyze the economic trends to anticipate funding availability and budget.
4. Global and Local Context:
Consider global and local trends in education to ensure alignment with international standards and competitiveness.
5. Societal Changes:
Examine societal shifts and values that may influence educational priorities, such as the emphasis on inclusivity, diversity, and evolving job market demands.
6. Educational Research:
Consider findings from educational research to inform evidence-based decision making and program development.2.7. How To Calculate Cost Analysis?
You can use these steps to calculate a cost analysis ratio:
1. Determine the reason you need a cost analysis:
When you do a cost analysis, how you use it depends on why you're doing it. Figure out why you need the cost analysis to know what things you should consider. For instance, if you're making a project budget, you might look at budget details from past projects.
2. Evaluate cost:
Now, let's look at the costs connected to the project. Make a list of all these costs, so it's handy for what comes next. Think about any surprise costs that might pop up and how the costs might change as time goes on.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Signature Assignment: Planning a Needs Assessment
The mission of this school system is to properly prepare students to be college and
career ready, through strong academics, Social Emotional learning, and positive experiences
that inform learning. State lawmakers are pushing for test scores to improve and standards to
be met. Educators are constantly charged with the task of providing learning opportunities that
push to close the achievement gap. There is a need for educators to stay abreast of the latest
information in education, but most teachers feel as though their Professional Learning days are
squandered away with information they do not see as relevant, instruction on things not
dedicated to the mission or that they have already engaged in. Improving instruction increases
the likelihood of accomplishing the mission of our school system and the expectations the State
has set forth. The last Professional Day raised some concerns, as Human Resources noticed a
trend of educators not returning after breaks or not attending at all.
Goals
A Needs Assessment is the process of collecting information that will drive an organizational
needs, implied or explicit, in order to rectify a deficit an organization may be facing. The process
calls for three steps to be taken, collect, analyze and creation (Barbazette, 2006). The purpose
of this needs assessment is to determine the Professional Development opportunities educators
need to increase student engagement, provide rigor, the ability to engage in authentic
assessment, assess the knowledge levels of mastery for their content, teaching strategies, and
review their understanding of Social Emotional learning. The overall goal is to improve
instruction by improving student learning by finding out what educators need.
Participants
The participants in this needs assessment will include a multitude of educators from across the
school system. There will be one administrator, one academic coach, and one teacher from
every grade level from each of the elementary schools in the district. Each middle and high
school will send one representative from each grade and/or subject matter taught. It is at the
discretion of the administration to decide who will represent their school. A number of teachers
that participate in the Mentoring Teachers program will also be asked to attend.
Project Plan
The project plan includes paid surveys and focus group questions that allow for data collection.
We believe that offering this during the spring of the current academic year, in order to prepare
for the following school year, will give us enough time to design course offering that meet the
needs of our teachers, by the time they return for our first Professional Learning series of the fall
semester. We will use one location, the high school, to house the participants for two days
during Winter Break. There are an estimated 1,750 of attendees that are expected, with
capacity of the school being 2,000. The attendees will be expected to bring their own district
provided laptop. Writing utensils will be provided by the administration from each school. Lunch
will be provided both days, to reduce attendance and retention issues. Each school

4. Signature Assignment:PlanningaNeedsAssessment
Methodology
The data will be collected in various ways, as we want participants not become bored
with the same types of task. Online surveys will be created for the Mastery of Content and Rigor
components. Teachers will be grouped, based on a cluster and grade level, and expected to
complete the online survey. The online survey will consist of questions that test the knowledge
and skillset of the teachers. Questions will be multiple choice, fill in the blank, true or false and
matching of test items. Paper surveys will follow a similar format. Focus group and Breakout
sessions will involve more of sharing vocally, first, then recording as a group on chart paper,
and lastly providing a typed summary of what was recorded. We want to offer educators the
flexibility in sharing with us what they know and how they feel.
The resulting data will then be processed by the Professional Development staff, over a
period of three months. The data from the online surveys will determine what our teacher’s
need, as it pertains to content mastery. The paper surveys will be scored by the Social
Emotional Learning department to process, evaluate and restructure, if needed, how they
provide the Social Emotional concepts for teachers to use in the classroom. The recorded
summaries will be used to determine if teachers have a grasp of the assessment process,
grading procedures, and what they think they need to know to inform their teaching.
The next steps based on the data include the Instructional Design process. The
professional development team have identified the needs, created the learners profile, and will
know move to step two on the design process, Identifying learning Objectives. Once they have
identified them, based on the categories from the data, the will create the storyboard, the
prototype, and the training. The training will occur during the first days of teachers returning
from summer break. Teachers will be able to select the courses they think will help them during
the first part of the school year. The impact of training will be evaluated after every session and
will serve as the exit ticket for participants. Participants will be given a short, no more than 15
questions that vary, about their experience. Teachers that participated in the needs assessment
process will be expected to complete an additional survey on if their needs and concerns were
met.

Conclusion
Effective instruction can change the trajectory of learning that we need in this district. The needs
assessment hones in on what is important to teachers, what they need to be successful and
how we can be of better service to them, as a district. The needs assessment also allows for a
different type of collaboration that partners key stakeholders in this district. If we are going to
meet our goal of educating students that are college and career ready, we must move in a
direction that supports. We cannot do that without properly supporting those on the frontline.
