Your assignment for Week 7 is to evaluate a sample improvement plan and then develop a presentation summarizing your findings for a particular group of stakeholders.

Begin by downloading the following two resources from the Books and Resources section:

1. Sample Improvement Plan
2. Improvement Plan Rubric

Read through the sample improvement plan carefully so you are familiar with its components. Next, read each criterion on the rubric and then re-read the sample improvement plan, this time focusing on each of the elements in the rubric. Score the rubric by highlighting the appropriate boxes within the rubric that align with your assessment.

Finally, summarize your findings in a PowerPoint presentation.

As you format your presentation, be sure to include effective slide design that incorporates the best practices in NCUs PowerPoint Tutorial, such as using graphics and short phrases in bulleted lists while saving the full details for the speaker notes. Balance the text with relevant images and graphics that you create or that are copyright free, such as a Creative Commons license (you must still offer attribution even if the image is copyright free).

Length: Completed rubric and 6-8 slides, not including cover slide or reference slide

References: No references are required, though any sources used should be cited

Your presentation should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.
