Educational Law Project Presentation
Overview
In your assignments, journal activity, and discussions, you have researched and analyzed case law related to school desegregation, church-state interaction, education of students with disabilities and English language learners (ELL students), teacher rights, school and district responsibilities, and funding. You are now tasked with presenting information for a model school district or school system that includes an overview and summary statements relevant to case law to present to the state department of education. Create a presentation using Prezi or similar software in order to present your research. The information within your presentation will assist the state department of education in developing a district-wide professional development plan geared toward improving the overall test scores of the schools within the district.
