This  assignment will allow you to have flexibility based on your expertise.  You chose a policy issue in week 3. The flexibility is based on the  leadership perspective you wish to take. Recognizing that you may work  in one of many different areas of education, you will analyze a policy  issue and discuss how it impacts leadership at one of the three levels  of educational leadership: local, state, federal. You will also be asked  to analyze the impact through a second level of your choice. For  instance, if you are a teacher in a district, you might want to focus  the assignment on how a policy impacts local school district leadership.  You would then have to also address the policy issue (not as  extensively as the local component they have chosen) either through the  federal or state lens.

Using the concept you learned this week. Analyze the policy based on these 8 steps:

• Define the problem
• Assemble some evidence
• Construct the alternatives
• Select the criteria
• Project the outcomes
• Confront the trade-offs
• Decide
• Tell your story

Length: 10-12 pages not including reference pages
