Mrs. Garrison writes End-of-the –year comments in each students’ Cumulative (CUM) Records Folder.  A CUM folder is a file of general school information that typically contains grades, attendance, discipline, standardized assessment reports and other information from a student's educational career (Logsdon, 2017).  She shares information that she feels is important about the student to give insight to next year’s teacher.  Juan is a student in her second grade classroom who arrived from Mexico three months ago.  He is struggling to acquire the English language and has difficulty following simple directions. His parents are working with him but due to their limited English, they are unable to help with some of his homework.  He seems withdrawn and does not participate in class discussions.  Here is what she writes:

Juan is not able to independently complete classroom assignments.  He requires a great deal of assistance and in my opinion, should be tested for a learning disability.  He may be undocumented and illegal in this county.  I have asked the parents but they refuse to share any information about their home life.  They seem to live in poverty because he only has one pair of shoes and one coat.  I don’t think that he will succeed academically and will eventually become a behavior issue.  I believe that he stole money from a student and he used that money to pay for a snack during lunch but he never admitted to it.  The parents work long hours so they are not available for conferences so you will not receive any support from home.  Best of luck with him, I’m happy I only had him for 3 months. 

The following year, Juan’s mother notices that the new teacher does not reach out to them.  She was extremely withdrawn during Open House and she noticed that she treated them differently than the other parents.  Juan’s mother wants to gather information about Juan’s progress to share with his new tutor so the tutor suggest that she ask to see his school file to see if there is any information that she can use from there.    She is given access to his folder, where she discovers last year’s comments.   Due to her limited English, she takes photographs of the documents so that a family member can translate them.  Her niece, who is a lawyer, shares what she finds and they immediately contact the school to request a conference.  What do you believe can/will happen next?  Will the teacher be held liable?  What will the principal be expected to do with this information that was passed on from one teacher to another?  What will happen to the records?

  Data Analysis Practice     

Mills (2014) shares in Chapter 6, “the interpretation of qualitative  data is the researcher’s attempt to find meaning, to answer the ‘So  what?’ in terms of the implications of the study’s findings” (p. 133).   He adds that data analysis and interpretation is “. . . a process of  digesting the contents of your qualitative data and finding related  threads in it” (133).
 

Analyze the middle school scenario, Flipped Math Class.   Explain your process for coding and categorizing the qualitative data.   What patterns and/or themes did you discover?  Answer the “So What” for  your team of teacher-researchers based on your findings. What steps  does your team need to take to address these issues before implementing  the innovation of a flipped classroom?
 

Module 02 Project – Analysis

This is a continuation of the attached paper. 

Barbara receives an email from her manager asking about the progress of the strategic plan. The manager informs Barbara that UCCO is wanting to implement a new electronic health record (EHR), to improve the overall process of providing quality patient care; and organizational challenges. After her discussion, Barbara realizes that she would need to complete a situational analysis. By performing a situational analysis, planners can help anticipate and manage change. Understanding the internal and external environment is also critical to an effective strategic plan. For the external environment, planners look at opportunities and threats. For the internal environment, planners look at strengths and weaknesses.  For this project assignment on UCCO, complete a minimum of a 2 page report and two SWOT tables to describe key opportunities, threats, strengths, and weaknesses in selecting an electronic record system. 

Your written report should address the following concepts:  Visit the Rasmussen online Library and search for a minimum of 2 articles covering the topics of electronic health record implementation. Conduct academic research using the library's databases, like:  ◦CINAHL ◦Discovery ◦Business Source Complete via EBSCO ◦Business via ProQuest    

•What is the current economic situation for UCCO? What suggestions can Barbara make to help mitigate financial issues? Use the financial review provided in the UCCO case.  

•What type of electronic record system should Barbara recommend for the company? What is her best option? What are the financial implications? Explain the choice based on what the system can provide in comparison to the organizational challenges?  

Visit the Internet and search for a minimum of 2 electronic health record systems. Search for types of EHR systems.   

To complete this assignment, construct two situational/SWOT analysis tables – one for each electronic record system being considered – that contains the following: 

•External influences – opportunities and threats.  

•Internal influences – strengths and weaknesses. 

•Trends that can impact clinic performance, market and financial position  

•EHR System functions and capabilities 

•EHR End-user requirements and ease of use  

Remember to integrate citations accurately and appropriately for all resource types; use attribution (credit) as a method to avoid plagiarism. Use NoodleBib to document your sources and to complete your APA formatted reference page (2-3 references) and in-text citations (at least 1-2).

Module 02 Discussion – Financial Considerations

Financial considerations are critical to any successful strategic plan, and healthcare plans are no different. It is recommended that all organizations include a financial analysis in their strategic plan. A number of financial tools are available to assist in this analysis.   Select one that you learned about and post a brief description of it. Include your analysis of why it would be helpful in conducting a financial analysis for a strategic plan.
