Purpose
This assignment provides an early feedback opportunity for one of the two large products required in this course. The rationale for this assignment and full explanation for each required component are given in the Reading & Literacy Project (R&L) description. Your first step in completing this Draft should be to read the R&L description thoroughly.

In this exercise, you will work as a group to create (in whole or in part) several key elements needed for the big Project. Full credit is given for complete assignments, along with qualitative formative feedback. We expect you to apply this feedback in your completed Project. The table below provides the number of the matching element from the full project description, along with an expectation statement. This table is for your information; you will not be graded on these expectations yet. The grading checklist itself is provided last.

Draft Components (this is not the rubric)

Component (a subset of RLP Elements)	Element No. (from R&L Assignment)	Expectations for this Draft
Brief description of target school and its media center learning environment; include school mission or goals, and dominant teaching approach (of faculty)	2	Provides enough context for your choices to make sense.
Brief outline of what your Project entails (Reading Promotion Project, collaborative unit, technology product, or other)	3	Matches Information Power (IP) philosophy; employs sound practices.
List of sample research citations that support what you want to do (2-3 of the eventual 10)	5	Provides research-based justification of your plan.
Identify the 3 formats you intend to use	7	Provides three different formats that make sense in context of the plan.
A personal reading philosophy from each team member	9	Articulated personal philosophies that are congruent with the spirit of IP.

Submission Format

Use headings to help me locate your elements, drawn from the component list above.
Self assess as a team, using the rubric below. Paste this rubric into the submitted document.
Envision a single Word or Google document for this Draft. Please post to your assignment pages for ease of grading; you may later replace this Draft with the final Project.

If you use a Google Doc, share it with maryannfitz@gmail.com and submit a brief document into the dropbox pointing to this G-doc.

Only one team member should submit the Draft into the Dropbox. Each team member should submit their Reading Philosophy into their own dropbox. (Therefore, one team member will submit two files while the others will submit only one.)
Carefully follow the Filenaming Rules.
