Articles etc. Policy Studies for Educational Leaders Frances C. Fowler Public Policymaking, 8e James E. Anderson Violence in educational organizations (k-12 or higher education): (a) Provide some context on the policy problem related to school or campus violence; (b) What are the legal requirements for defining, identifying, investigating, and reporting violence (in schools or on-campus)? (c) Using Anderson's policymaking process, describe and explain the policymaking process as it relates to federal legislation on violence within the context of education? 1. Please keep to the page maximum 4. If you go over 4 OR under 3, I tend to look at what you have provided with a more critical eye in terms of sections that seem to be extraneous OR could use more analysis. This is content only, not reference pages, title pages, abstracts etc. 2. Please don't spend a lot of your paper summarizing all the steps in the policy process--we have all read Anderson and Fowler. Rather, just go straight into explaining the process specific to your policy, with proper citations along the way. For example "Fowler (2014) argues that the first step of policy is xxx... The policy was placed on the national agenda by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (cite here where you got the information). They put the issue in the national spotlight by..." 3. Look at the rubric and be sure that you cover what is there since that is what I use to grade your assignment. 4. It is not enough just to cite the readings in the class--part of being a scholar-practitioner is to extend your own knowledge to search for other reputable sources as well. For this assignment, you are focusing on one policy problem throughout the entire brief. Remember that policy problems/issues are not the same as public policy. They are 2 very different things in the readings. If you have a specific policy in mind, this paper wants you to focus first on the context that made this policy necessary (or in other words, what is the real problem that this policy is trying to solve). You get to decide and define why you think your topic constitutes violence in schools--some people will talk about cyberbullying, others will talk about mass shootings, meanwhile, others may talk about harassment--all of these could pertain to either adults or children. Explain to the reader why what you chose constitutes school violence. I know that most of you have topics directly connected to school violence. If your paper isn't directly related but is still connected, don't forget to just make the connection to explain it. For example, there are lots of different types of violence depending on the definition: verbal, emotional, or physical--if the topic isn’t easily connected make that connection for the reader. 5 or more scholarly references (textbooks and others), APA 7th edition *Rubric is attached* (Major Assignment 1-Part 1)
