The ‘Portfolio Assessment’ in Economics Principles is designed for students to collaboratively explore illustrative aspects or examples of the Unit Learning Objectives (ULOs). The ULOs are listed in the Unit Outline. It is anticipated an individual group member is primarily responsible for the exploration of material illustrative of one Unit Learning Objective (ULO) but that all group members will become familiar with, and assume ownership of, all elements of the Portfolio. After the formation of groups, a first step is for group members to decide which ULO it is that they wish to illustrate or explore. A second step is to determine which content aspects of the course relate to the ULO chosen, and then to choose which topic area(s) to focus on. The weekly aims stated on Canvas indicate how content topics relate to certain ULOs and this information may assist students in their topic selections. There are certain expectations to be met when writing the Portfolio. Layout should include a title page, delineated sections per ULO and a reference list. Material from microeconomics and macroeconomics should be included in the Portfolio. Chosen topics should clearly relate to the ULO and be written to a non-Economics literate audience. Students should avoid plagiarism. As well as showing understanding of basic concepts, authors are expected to demonstrate evidence of further analysis and exploration, such as by relating basic theory to previous or contemporary events. Use of diagrams, contemporary statistical data/forecasts are encouraged/expected. Students should explore wider secondary sources in addition to course materials and textbook. In the selection and exploration of topics, students should consult their teacher. The Portfolio assessment assumes group cooperation and coordination. Key Generic Skills to the Unit include Communication and Peoples Skills. Group work can pose interpersonal challenges and such occasions should be viewed opportunities to practice and develop assertion, conflict resolution and listening skills. In instances where interpersonal problems (e.g. social loafing) cannot be solved by group members, at the teacher’s discretion, individuals may be withdrawn and asked to complete all sections of the Portfolio.

Early Intervention Strategies Digital Brochure

One priority for early intervention services is communication and support to families. Families are a young child’s first teacher and lifelong advocates. Parents of young children with a disability may have never had to advocate for services and are often new to navigating the system of supports in public school and other agency settings. Collaboration with parents of young children often involves informing parents of their roles, defining the role of the school, and helping parents understand and navigate the state agency supports available for young children.

Create a 250-500 word digital brochure for families of children in preschool-kindergarten that describes services and supports for individuals with disabilities. Choose one specific disability category from IDEA to complete your brochure.

Describe the following in your digital brochure, keeping in mind your chosen disability category:

Role of the family in accessing early intervention services. Role of the state in providing early intervention services. Role of service providers in providing early intervention programs in public schools. Three e skills, and literacy skills in their children affected by the chosen disability. One local organization that families could contact to learn more about the disability and community services that might be available.

The brochure should be respectful and appropriate in tone and word choice for the family audience. Support your findings with 2-3 scholarly resources.

While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success enter.
