Prior to beginning work on this assignment, review the Multigenerational Center Activity (Links to an external site.) interactive.
Workshop Proposal
In your Summative Assignment, imagine that your supervisor at the Multigenerational Center has requested a proposal for a workshop to be presented by you at the center. Your workshop proposal will be a topic of your choice based on your field of study and the needs of your audience. You will use the Multigenerational Center Activity from Week 1 to understand your audience and to choose a topic for your workshop. Your supervisor has requested that you use the given Summative Template download to ensure that all components are comprehensively addressed. Since this is a substantial project for a new employee, your supervisor (instructor) will review major components of your proposal before your final submission.

Your supervisor made suggestions in your first draft. You will revise your original work based on your supervisor’s (instructor’s) feedback. Think about your target audience, and anticipate two possible issues or roadblocks that may arise. Using your background knowledge of your field of study, share two possible solutions for each roadblock. To substantiate your workshop topic and demonstrate the importance of this topic to your director, review the EDU499 Professional Standards by Program download for your field of study. You will choose two of the following standards and explain how they represent the objective of your workshop:
Environment
Supplies
Roadblock #1
Solution #1
Solution #2
Roadblock #2
Solution #1
Solution #2
Professional Standard #1 and Explanation
Professional Standard #2 and Explanation
Part 3: Environment and Materials
Use the Summative Template, and fill out this section due in Week 4. Your supervisor is impressed with your Workshop Proposal at this point and has permitted you to continue working on your proposal. This week you will continue filling out the Summative Template for your Workshop Proposal. Using the Welcome to the University of Arizona Global Campus Multigenerational Center! interactive from Week 1 as a guide, you will describe the space you will use to deliver your workshop. Please be sure to name one of the areas shown in the Week 1 interactive, and explain why this is the ideal space for your workshop. You will include a complete list of all materials necessary to have a successful workshop. Review the rooms and locations from the interactive to determine if specific furniture needs to be included as well. All good presenters prepare for the unexpected. Think about your target audience, and anticipate two possible issues or roadblocks that may arise. Using your background knowledge of your field of study, share two possible solutions for each roadblock. To substantiate your workshop topic and to demonstrate the importance of this topic to your director, review the EDU499 Professional Standards by Program table for your field of study (included in the course shell). You will choose two of these standards and explain how they represent the objective of your workshop.
Template:
Describe the environment or the space needed to deliver your workshop.
List the needs and/or supplies for the Workshop.
Describe two possible roadblocks and two corresponding solutions for each roadblock.
List two professional standards from your field of study.
Explain how the two standards support your content.
PART 4: STRATEGIES
Use the Summative Template and fill out this section. In the final part of the Workshop Plan, you complete the final two components of the Summative Template. First, you will review the University of Arizona Global Campus Multigenerational Center Activity in Week 1 again and decide which other groups (field of study?) would either benefit from your workshop presentation or could be incorporated somehow. For example, if your field of study is ECE, and you have created a workshop for preschool students to learn specific yoga poses, ask yourself how you could include one of the senior groups that meet at the center as well. The best workshops are those that keep teaching. Think of the positive relationships this could foster! In addition, you will include two strategies (using your text as a guide) to deliver the workshop objective.
Template:
Partnerships: Identify which groups at the Multigenerational Center could also benefit from the workshop. (Before, during, or after the workshop.)
Strategies: Identify two strategies to deliver your workshop.
