[School Name] School/Family/Community Partnership Evaluation Report
by
Student’s Name
EDLD 5339
Date of Submission
Your evaluation report should be:
· Double-spaced between all text lines
· Times New Roman typeface
· 12-pt font
· 1-inch margins on all sides
· The general rule is to use numerals to express numbers 10 and above and words to express numbers below 10.
· In-text citations: Follow the author-date method. This means that the author's last name and the year of publication for the source should appear in the text, for example, (Jones, 2014), and a complete reference should appear in the reference list at the end of the paper.
· Each source cited in text must appear in the reference list at the end of the paper and “each entry in the reference list must be cited in text” (APA, 2010, p. 174). A personal conversation is the only exception. You will cite a personal conversation within the text, however, you will not list it within the references.
· Review carefully the APA guidelines to ensure all references and citations are formatted correctly.
· Use direct quotes only if you have good reason. Most of your paper should be in your own words. You should summarize or paraphrase.

Title of Evaluation Report
Center and Bold the Title
(Lamar Requirement)
Section One
Because the introduction is clearly identified by its position in the paper, it does not have a heading. Your paper opens with an introduction that sets the stage for the reader to better understand the overall school/family/community partnership evaluation process. Your report’s first paragraph is an introduction to your evaluation process. In this section you explain the process by which your stakeholder committee, which includes administration, faculty, parents (families), community members, and business partners, work collaboratively to evaluate school level family and community communication and partnerships. The purpose of the report should be stated in the first or second paragraph. The first part is typically several paragraphs describing the overall scenario or context of your study, e.g. name of school, location, relevant history, campus demographics (ethnicity and socio-economic level of students, grade levels, urban or rural, etc.), stakeholder committee demographics as well as any other relevant information that will assist the reader in understanding the context of your report. Include any significant challenges or biases discovered that might impact the project. The reader should have a good idea what the paper is about before finishing the first page.

Invention of Carbon 13 Dating and Molecular ChronologyEric Lichtfouse
This conference presentation describes the invention of molecular carbon-13 dating, a relative dating method that allows to mesure the relative age of organic substances in complex. This invention is based on the discovery of temporal pools of molecular susbtances in soils. The findings open a new scientific field, named Molecular Chronology, to study the source, transformation, persistence, sequestration, transfer and toxicity of organic substances in complex media, such as living organisms, food, soil, waters and sediments. Similarly to sedimentary stratigraphy that uses layers to date sediments, molecular chronology uses temporal pools to date molecules. As a consequence, any biological or environmental samples becomes a 'fossil record' of substances of different age. Molecular chronology is thus expected to deliver new knowledge in all fields studying complex systems, such as biology, medicine, food science, agronomy, environmental science, soil science and geology. This is an invited conference at SIL2018, the Congress of the International Society of Limnology, in Nanjing, August 2018.
La situation actuelle en matière de diffusion des connaissances est controversée et binaire, avec comme acteurs les vilains éditeurs commerciaux, en grande majorité étrangers, accusés de faire injustement des profits en publiant les recherches sans grands efforts, et d'un autre coté les gentils chercheurs qui doivent payer à la fois les abonnements et la publication de leur articles. Dans cet exposé, sur la base de 15 ans d'édition en chimie et agronomie, je vais tenter de montrer que la situation n'est pas si simple et que l'accès libre, même s'il est souhaitable à terme, a engendré davantage d'injustice, en particulier pour les pays pauvres, que de bénéfices. Avant les articles étaient sélectionnés uniquement sur leur science, maintenant ils sont sélectionnés à la fois par la science et l'argent des auteurs, voire uniquement par l'argent dans le cas des revues prédatrices. Ironiquement, l'accès libre, vanté initialement comme l'accès libre de la science au monde entier, est en fait l'accès libre de la science des riches au monde entier.
Cette note donne des conseils pour écrire un article de synthèse ou un chapitre de livre. Je propose en particulier une procédure efficace pour construire le résumé à partir de brèves conclusions introduites préalablement à la fin des sections du manuscrit. Je donne également des conseils généraux d’écriture.
Rédiger pour être publié ! Conseils pratiques aux scientifiques. ExtraitEric Lichtfouse
Publier ou périr. Cet adage illustre l’importance de la communication scientifique ; essentielle pour les chercheurs, elle est aussi un secteur stratégique pour la compétitivité d'une nation. Domaine souvent négligé, la communication scientifique prend une importance vitale avec les nouvelles technologies informatiques qui accélèrent et modifient en profondeur la diffusion des connaissances. La nécessité de bien communiquer ses découvertes aux spécialistes devient cruciale pour les chercheurs, les instituts et les universités du fait du recours récent aux facteurs d'impact pour évaluer et financer la recherche. La science doit être également diffusée très largement vers le public, en particulier les médias, les entrepreneurs et les acteurs sociopolitiques.
Ce manuel expose les règles d’or de la rédaction d’un article scientifique. Conçu à partir des défauts majeurs rencontrés, l’auteur explique la manière de structurer facilement un article et expose les remèdes aux défauts typiques des auteurs francophones qui souhaitent publier en anglais. Il propose des conseils pour mieux éduquer ou vulgariser le savoir, et suggère enfin de nouvelles techniques de rédaction à l’ère d’Internet comme le micro-article, qui permet au chercheur de focaliser ses résultats sur un seul point innovant.
Les grands principes exposés peuvent être appliqués à une grande variété de documents comme les thèses, les rapports industriels, les publicités, les lettres de motivation, les curriculum vitae, les blogs et les communiqués de presse car tous ces documents ont en commun la mise en évidence d'une avancée, d'une découverte, d'une innovation ou d'une différence par rapport à l’existant.
Scientific Writing for Impact Factor JournalsEric Lichtfouse
The basics of scientific writing in the digital age. From the book Scientific Writing for Impact Factor Journals, Nova Publishers. This presentation distillates the main points that scientists should have in mind when writing a scientific article: Novelty, Communication, Focus, Distillation, Micro-Article, Unexpected, Contrast, Text, Clear, Introduction, Images, Photos, Iphone, Rejected, Social Media.
Research experiments usually give too many results, making writing research article very difficult and unfocussed. ‘Never start writing any sentence of a research article without knowing clearly the main message’. I invented the Micro-Article to select the major, novel result - and thus the main message - before writing a full research article. Start by designing a simple figure that conveys the novel message. Then fill in result description, interpretation, novelty and benefits. Then fill in problems and hypothesis. Then design a title conveying the novelty or advance, using both specialists and general words, as the title should be readable by a PhD in a different discipline. Share your Micro-Article with scientists in your field (lab colleagues), scientists outside your field and friends: analyze their questions. Then, once the novel message is clear in your mind, start writing your research article. The Micro-Article can be used for scientific writing workshops.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Abstract
This short note provides step-by-step guidelines to write a review article or a book chapter. I explain in particular a
convenient method to build the abstract by writing short conclusions at the end of article sections. I also give
general writing advices.
Definition
In the scientific literature, review articles, or book chapters, are a category of scientific papers, which provide a
synthesis of research on a topic. Review articles are secondary sources analyzing several original articles, which
are primary sources reporting original results.
STEP 1
Read at least five high-quality chapters on a similar topic to make yours better.
STEP 2
Gather and read about 50-100 original articles on a topic within your scientific field.
STEP 3
Write down a list of about 5-8 subtopics that will constitute a draft of your article sections. The structure below
shows in particular that the Introduction section is abstracted in the first part of the abstract, and that sections are
abstracted in the second part of the abstract.
Title
Abstract
Background/issues
List of advances
1. Introduction
2. Section
Analysis of 5-8 original articles. Figure, table
Conclusion on the main trend: 1-2 sentences
3. Section
…
6. Section
7. Conclusion
References
STEP 4
Write in each section 1-3 paragraphs including one illustration showing the section point: a figure, a table, a
scheme or a photo… Use colours. Sections should analyse, discuss and compare the results from about 5-8
original articles. End the sections with 1-2 sentences concluding on the major point, trend or result that you have
deduced from your literature analysis. See also abstract comments below.
2. STEP 5
Write the introduction section starting by 1-2 paragraphs of societal and general issues, almost readable by the
public, and then write 1-2 paragraphs of scientific issues related to your topic. Insert in the introduction a figure
containing 1-2 nice colour photos related to the topic and readable by the public, this will highly increase the
visibility of your review article.
STEP 6
Write the abstract, the abstract should have two parts:
1) ISSUES/PROBLEMS: abstract of the Introduction section
This part, about 5-7 sentences, should give first all general, societal, environmental issues related to your topic,
understandable by a very wide readership: this is the big picture. Then the text should explain all specific, local,
scientific, conceptual issues related to your topic.
2) MAJOR ADVANCES: abstract of article sections
This part should start by e.g. "We reviewed… The major points are 1)…, 2)…". Indeed you should give here the
major points and advances that you demonstrate in the sections by literature analysis. Those points should be
precise trends (increase, decrease…) supported by data (%, numbers), whenever possible. A convenient way to
build this second part of the abstract is to write at the end of each article section a conclusion of about 1-2
sentences to summarize the major point of the section and its significance. Then all those 1-2 sentence
conclusions can be gathered in the second part of the abstract. In other words this second part of the abstract
should clearly show the added value of your analysis. This second part of the abstract is indeed the solution to the
problems explained in the first part. Overall it is the contrast between the first and second part that makes the value
of the article for the reader, and in turn the impact in terms of citations.
STEP 7
Write the title using both specific and general keywords. Please note that your title must be readable by scientists
out of your field, because science is interdisciplinary.
GENERAL ADVICES
- Keep abbreviation number to a very strict minimum. Explain all abbreviations. Note that most readers are not in
your field, and most readers do not read from start to end. This phenomenon called bits reading is amplified by
digital reading. In other words an out of the field reader starting reading at e.g. page 5 will not understand an
uncommon abbreviation, and will thus stop reading your article.
- Abbreviations in figures and tables must be explained at the end of the caption.
- Avoid long, multiverb sentence. Write simple, monoverb sentences in the order subject-verb-object.
- Avoid everywhere long expressions in (): this causes heavy reading. Replace by “, ; e.g. such as” … Or split
sentences. One message only per sentence.
- No sentence alone. Write in paragraphs everywhere. A paragraph is not a sum of sentences; a paragraph is a
story or a demonstration.
- Insert the digital object identifier (DOI), when available, at the end of references, this will increase visibility. Check
that references in the text are in the list, and vice versa, this will save weeks of delay at the publishing stage.
- Figures and tables should be understandable and citable without reading the article text. Therefore figure captions
should include 2-3 sentences to describe the trend, result or fact to be observed, and its scientific significance. This
will highly increase the impact. Indeed many readers start by reading figures.
- Please note that figures, especially photos, have 100 times more communicative power than text. Readers like
illustrations, especially those that show things that they see every day: plants, animals, tools and objects.
- Detailed advices on scientific writing are given in my book
