Discussion post
consider how each resource relates to the importance of cultivating a safe school culture and to the strategies principals and other educational leaders must employ to create a safe environment. What research questions or apparent gaps come to mind?
Keeping in mind what you have learned about safe school culture, post the following:
- An original research topic related to the module’s Learning Resources (Note: This proposed research topic may be related to the general topic for the module or to gaps in the literature regarding the topic of safe school culture, or it can be related to a specific reading for the module.)
- An evaluation of the main concepts, with a focus on their application to creating a safe school culture and their impact on positive social change
- An annotated bibliography of at least five additional resources related to this module’s topic
