Project Scope & Plan

Project Purpose

This practicum project supports the Ohio EBiTE program’s shift from an in-person workshop model to self-paced, interactive e-learning. The deliverable is a prototype of an online module (Unit 2) that helps school improvement teams move from a problem statement to a clear, evidence-informed SMART goal.

Target Audience

Primary Audience: Educators serving on school improvement teams and school/district leaders supporting school improvement work.
Delivery Context: Self-paced online modules designed to complement (or replace) facilitated training, depending on deployment needs.
