WELCOME The faculty of the Joint Doctorate in Educational Leadership welcomed its first cohort of regional leaders in 2005. Since then, four cohorts have graduated and three cohorts are well on their way toward meeting this goal. We are proud of their accomplishments, and we know you, Cohort VIII, will continue the trail-‐blazing leadership work started by our pioneers. The program is designed to work with you, pre-‐K-‐20 school and postsecondary leaders who are interested in honing your leadership skills and research practice to make a difference in the lives of students and those who teach them. The inclusion of pre-‐K-‐12 educators with community college and university administrators has enabled both levels to become better acquainted with each other and to explore more systematically pipeline issues, social justice and educational equity at all levels. Another unique feature of our doctoral program is the benefit you receive from the research, practice, and knowledge of two faculties—CSUSM and UCSD. For the duration of the program, the JDP directors at each campus serve as the primary contacts and advisors. During the dissertation phase, your dissertation chair and committee members serve as your primary research advisors. The Joint Doctorate Program (JDP) in Educational Leadership is a member of the Carnegie Professional Educational Doctorate (CPED) a consortium of 57 universities nationwide who work together in a critical examination of the doctorate in education. The intent of the project is to redesign the Ed.D. and to make it a stronger and more relevant degree for the advanced preparation of school practitioners and clinical faculty, academic leaders and professional staff for the nation’s schools and colleges and the learning organizations that support them. CPED principles practiced in the JDP as well as the other 57 institutions were developed and are included following community principles below. The JDP in Educational Leadership is committed to social justice and educational equity with a focus on strengths through appreciative inquiry designed to explore and inform 21st century educational issues. First, we address educational inequities and consider diversity to be strength. Second, we teach and use a strengths-‐ and asset-‐based inquiry approach that enables you to embrace your own strengths and to identify and build on the strengths of others as stepping stones to powerful leadership. Third, we engage you in exploring cutting edge research and practices that will enable you to design and lead educational systems in and for the future. Currently most educators are preoccupied with repairing a 19th century model of education. We believe we need leaders who know and can take the best from the past but envision the future. We are prepared to design and lead in ways that meet the needs of learners today as well as the learners of tomorrow. We envision a community of learners, who strive to critically review and engage in research as a way to contribute to knowledge, improve practice, build theory, and shape the future of education in the region. 3

Our goals are to: ♦ Break new ground with you to redefine leadership for the 21st century. ♦ Develop our capacity as a community of scholars to collectively address pressing issues of social justice in our schools and communities. ♦ Value and build on what you already know as practitioners to define and strengthen your leadership. ♦ Develop your skills to conduct and use research that informs practice. ♦ Foster quality relationships that promote deep learning. ♦ Research and design educational systems attuned to the future. ♦ Help you learn to reflect, refine, and redesign the organizations you lead. ♦ Connect you to other scholars in the region and nation who are engaged in educational leadership and research.

PURPOSE OF THE HANDBOOK This handbook will introduce you to the JDP program, resources, and faculty, as well as important graduate student policies and procedures of UCSD and CSUSM. Adding doctoral studies to a full time job will stretch you to the maximum and will require careful planning, time management, commitment, and perhaps even putting on hold previous activities or commitments. This handbook is designed to help you know the requirements you must fulfill, and perhaps more importantly, individuals available to help you on your doctoral journey. Our cohort model creates a community of scholars. We encourage you to be an active member of this community by contributing your knowledge, expertise, new learning, support, and wisdom to colleagues, and seeking help of other colleagues and faculty when needed. In this joint program, UCSD serves as the primary administrative unit. Fortunately the academic and administrative resources of both campuses are available to you. It is your responsibility to use this handbook, web pages, and your UCSD and CSUSM email account to stay informed about the program, its requirements, due dates, updates and changes, as well as degree policies and procedures of the Office of Graduate Studies (OGS). The policies and procedures operative on the day of your initial enrollment govern your program for the duration.

COMMUNITY PRINCIPLES

As we strive to learn as a group, we will use the following foundational principles by which we relate to each other as a community, individuals, co-‐workers, fellow students, and instructors. Each of us speaks from our own experiences. Each of us is open to listening and hearing others. Each of us creates a space where all voices are heard. Each of us commits to having our thinking challenged. Each of us respects everyone’s confidentiality. Each of us may share our lessons, but not necessarily who or where it was said Each of us participates using a “value added” approach by expanding upon ideas, providing examples, and/or expressing a different perspective.

CPED PRINCIPLES CPED has identified the following statements that will focus research and development agendas to test, refine, and validate principles for the professional doctorate in education. The Professional doctorate in education: 1. Is framed around questions of equity, ethics, and social justice to bring about solutions to complex problems of practice. 2. Prepares leaders who can construct and apply knowledge to make a positive difference in the lives of individuals, families, organizations, and communities. 3. Provides opportunities for candidates to develop and demonstrate collaboration and communication skills to work with diverse communities and to build partnerships. 4. Provides field-‐based opportunities to analyze problems of practice and use multiple frames to develop meaningful solutions. 5. Is grounded in and develops a professional knowledge base that integrates both practical and research knowledge, that links theory with systemic and systematic inquiry. 6. Emphasizes the generation, transformation, and use of professional knowledge and practice.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW The Joint Doctorate in Educational Leadership is a year-‐round intense learning experience that starts in the Winter Quarter (semester at CSUSM) and requires at a minimum three full years of study with classes held winter, spring, summer, and fall. As a JDP student you are registered for 8-‐10 units each quarter, which translates into two 4-‐unit classes and in some quarters a 2-‐unit practicum or in the third year two (2-‐unit) colloquia. At the graduate level this is the equivalent of a full-‐time load. The JDP focuses on leadership, research, and practice in three key areas: leadership for 21st century schools and systems; equity and diversity policy analysis; and foundations of organization development and change. To this end, you will take courses designed to develop five specific leadership capacities that form the foundation of the program. They are: (1) Leadership for Learning; (2) Leadership for a Diverse Society; (3) Leadership for Organizational Change; (4) Leadership for Organizational Development; and (5) Leadership for the Future. The program prepares leaders for culturally, linguistically, and economically diverse educational settings, and provides the tools to conduct research in such settings. In each of these classes, you will collaboratively explore current research and theory and will be asked to critically analyze and relate the readings to your practice. In addition, practice is reviewed in relation to how it informs theory and research. In the research strands, you will critically review current research, learn how to do a literature review that helps frame new avenues for future research, learn the basics of research design, investigate both qualitative and quantitative research methodologies, and learn how these methods can be combined to conduct more valid and reliable research.

Student Led Discussion

LEADERSHIP CAPACITIES Leadership for Learning: The foundation of this Joint Ed.D. rests on the belief that the work of school leaders must always address the common objective of enhancing and providing the best conditions for student learning. Learning to apply the effective tools of leadership requires the acquisition of flexible communication skills, creative decision-‐making capabilities, a collaborative approach to problem solving, and the confidence to take calculated risks. At its core, effective leadership depends on one's ability to advance the skills, dispositions and teamwork of the adults involved in the instruction of students. Leadership for a Diverse Society: Leadership for a diverse society requires diversity of designs, practices, and solutions. Candidates in the Joint Ed.D. Program will learn to implement inclusive practices, not only as a matter of policy, but also as a matter of personal commitment and understanding of how institutions are historically transformed as a result. Leadership for Organizational Change: Developing leaders who are prepared for and understand the importance of organizational change is a program priority. Meeting the needs of an evolving educational system will require leaders who support a myriad of strategic innovations that will lead to positive changes in their organizations. Candidates will focus on developing critical habits of action to support effective problem solving, build leadership capacity within institutions, and alter institutions in ways that significantly improve the learning condition for their students. Leadership for Organizational Development: The program will help individuals design organizational growth plans and encourage them to actively support each other as they work to implement their plans. This experience will help graduates understand the importance of building leadership capacity within their educational organizations. One of the essential features of the program is the development of a community of learners who have experience creating safe, reflective environments for academic study, risk taking, and the practice of academic leadership. Leadership for the Future: The program will help leaders plan for the future as leaders. This strand is comprised of a specific course focused on the future as well as two advanced topic classes and two colloquia designed to address cutting issues in leadership such as legal issues, technology, cognitive development, learning theory, and social concerns including the impact of diversity on society that impact all leaders. The goal is not just to focus on the problems of today, but to design and lead learning organizations able to create positive futures. Research: In addition to expanding your theoretical and practical knowledge in leadership that can address issues of social justice and educational equity, a key component of this doctoral program is conducting research. A series of research courses enable you to learn about both qualitative and quantitative research paradigms, and to know how to design and conduct a major study often using the your own “workplace as your laboratory.” 8

PROGRAM OF STUDY The Joint Doctoral Program has a unique January start date to better meet the time demands of educational leaders. The program is designed so that it can be completed in three calendar years (4 quarters/year including summers, or a total of 12 quarters, or the semester equivalent) and consists of 108-‐quarter units of study. Although UCSD serves as the administrative unit for enrollment, you are considered a full time graduate student by each campus and your diploma will indicate your are a graduate of both campuses. You will be enrolled in your classes each quarter by the UCSD JDP staff. You will use your UCSD Personal Identification number and Personal Access code, which will be provided at the orientation, to make fee payments. Timely fee payment is your responsibility. In order to meet residency requirements, students will need to be enrolled in the JDP program for a total of 36-‐quarter units (or semester equivalent) consecutively for one year (4 quarters).

First Year Program The first year of the program consists of 36 quarter units taken during one calendar year (including summers) and is designed to build a shared language and provide you with knowledge and skills essential for understanding educational leadership. You will be enrolled in two 4-‐unit research classes focusing on the basics of research and designs appropriate to the field of education. You will also be enrolled in two, two-‐unit practicum courses that focus on applying research methodologies to your workplace as they relate to the core courses. The first year leadership courses are also designed to prepare you for the qualifying paper described below. All courses are aimed at assuring that you develop knowledge and skills in a range of subjects central to educational leadership research and practice. By the completion of the 4th quarter, all candidates are required to submit a Qualifying Paper, which serves as a comprehensive examination. This paper consists of a comprehensive literature review on a significant topic relevant to educational leadership, which provides faculty an opportunity to assess the candidate’s substantive knowledge, synthesis and analytical reasoning, and writing proficiencies. The research and evaluation courses assist you in learning how to read and interpret research studies and their implications for effective educational practices, and develop skills needed to write a review of literature. This writing is expected to be of publishable quality similar to that required of other high quality doctoral programs. Two faculty members from each campus will review every qualifying paper. Students who do not pass will have an opportunity to revise and resubmit their papers one time. Continuation in the program is contingent on passing.

Third Year Program

The third year of study is designed to develop the student’s independent scholarship through conducting dissertation research as outlined in the dissertation proposal. The candidate’s work will reflect the standards governing dissertations within the graduate divisions of the partner institutions. In this final year there are three work strands. First, you must meet regularly with your dissertation chair for guidance and review of work. It is primarily your responsibility to maintain contact and set up appointments. Second, a 4-‐quarter dissertation writing seminar guides our student cohort in the dissertation process by addressing advanced topics in research methodologies, especially data analysis techniques and software packages, as well as professional writing related to completion of the dissertation. Third, two colloquia are scheduled in the winter and spring quarters to keep you current with cutting edge issues. Dissertations may cover a wide range of topics and utilize various research methodologies. You are encouraged to approach these topics through the program’s vision as a contributor to leadership knowledge and systemic efforts to achieve social justice. It is anticipated that you will conduct and complete the dissertation by the end of the third year or beginning of the fourth year, in time for the May graduation from CSUSM and a June graduation from UCSD.

ADVISORS, PROGRESS REPORTS, AND MILESTONES When you enter the program, the CSUSM program director assumes the primary advising role during the first year and is ready and willing to answer any program questions you have. At our regular JDP faculty meetings, we review student progress and bring to each other’s attention progress of the cohort as a whole and needs of any particular student. Our goal is to ensure each student’s success in the program. In the second year, the UCSD program director serves as your primary advisor. Again you should feel free to bring any concerns or questions to the co-‐directors attention at either campus throughout the duration of the program. During the second year, after your research interests are clarified and matched to a faculty member’s area of expertise, a dissertation committee will be formed. The dissertation chair at this point becomes a critical advisor to you as you continue to finalize the proposal for defense, conduct the research and defend it at the end of the third year. However, at any point in the program, students should feel free to contact the directors with question or requests for assistance. Committee members should also be seen as important resources and advisors for informing the student’s dissertation study. Student Progress Doctoral students are expected to make steady progress toward completion of the requirements for the degree. You must maintain a 3.0 grade average to remain in the program. Letter grades for classes will include plus or minus grades. A grade of C puts the student on probation and the student must take steps immediately to improve performance in order to remain in the program. There will be an annual assessment of student progress. At the end of the first year, the CSUSM director will provide the primary overall evaluation of your progress, which is filed with the Office of Graduate Studies. You have a right to review this progress report and to add your own comments. You must sign the report before it is filed. In particular in this first year we are attending to your ability to keep up with the pace of the work and whether or not you are mastering the art of academic writing, a key skill needed for the qualifying paper and dissertation work. You may be asked to seek writing assistance to be able to complete the first milestone successfully. During the second year, the UCSD director will be responsible for filing student progress reports as outlined above. Particular attention in this progress report is paid to whether you are on target for a timely defense of the dissertation proposal. In the third year, progress reports are filed by your chair and JDP directors. Time required for completion of the doctorate depends less on units or credits or time of attendance than it does on mastery of a subject field, passing of the milestones, and completion of a satisfactory dissertation.

Milestones In addition to remaining a student in good standing in course work, you must meet and pass three major milestones to be awarded the doctorate in education degree. These milestones are: (a) a qualifying paper; (b) a proposal for a dissertation research study; and (c) a dissertation. The qualifying paper is a written literature review. The proposal and dissertation involve both a written product as well as an oral defense. These milestones are described in detail later in the handbook.

QUALIFYING PAPER In lieu of a comprehensive examination, you will prepare a written Qualifying Paper during the Fall term at the end of the first year of study. This paper consists of a comprehensive literature review on a significant topic relevant to educational leadership, which provides an opportunity for multiple faculty to assess your level of substantive knowledge, analytical reasoning, and writing proficiencies. Faculty members from UCSD and CSUSM campuses review the written Qualifying Paper, through a blind review process. Four faculty members read each paper. Three of the four members must agree that the candidate’s Qualifying Paper meets expectations in order for you to receive a pass. If your paper does not fulfill the criteria for a pass grade, you will be permitted to resubmit the paper by the end of the Winter Quarter. Any student failing on the second attempt will not be permitted to continue in the program, even if class performance has been satisfactory. The qualifying paper is a vital step in confirming that you will be able to conduct a high quality research study.

GUIDELINES FOR QUALIFYING PAPER

Purpose – The qualifying paper provides the opportunity for a student to:  Identify a topic and seek and locate scholars and researchers who have empirically and theoretically studied and written on this topic.  Present and discuss the thinking of these scholars around commonalities and differences, which reflects an ability to deconstruct, analyze, and synthesize research.  Explore the implications of the topic for leadership and social justice.  Critically reflect on the topic and identify areas for future research.  Apply principles of scholarly writing, including the use of APA style rules for preparing manuscripts. Required Elements of Qualifying Paper (Address each element using the headings as indicated) Abstract (500 words maximum) Introduction: Statement of the Problem, as presented in Creswell What is your topic?  What problem could research on this topic help you solve?  Why are you curious about this topic? Current State of knowledge/research on this topic (17-‐19 pages) 14

What are the major themes/findings that surfaced from your review on your topic? A strong paper identifies the major themes in the literature review by analyzing and synthesizing and does not just summarize the studies.  How have these studies informed the nature of the problem you identified?  What major research methods are used to study this topic (quantitative, qualitative, survey, case studies, narrative). Summary (2 pages)  What can you conclude about the current state of the literature about your topic from the literature you reviewed? A strong paper presents through the summary what is known and what are some of the gaps in the literature. These gaps can be in terms of theory building, research approaches (e.g. all quantitative, and few qualitative studies to answer how and why questions), or lack of extensive study of the topic or aspects of the topic. Implications for Leadership (1-‐2 paragraphs)  What implications can you draw from your review that could inform leadership theory, research, or practice? Implications for Social Justice (1-‐2 paragraphs)  What implications can you draw from your review that could inform social justice theory, research, or practice? Areas for future research (1 page)  What did you learn that suggest areas for future research? Describe those areas.  How will a study on this topic be helpful to researchers and practitioners? References  Reflect empirical research (primarily).  Carefully formatted to meet APA standards. Criteria  The review consists of at least 30 references (75% empirical—qualitative and/or quantitative) research. Other citations can include theoretical or conceptual articles.  Synthesizing and critical analysis (comparing & contrasting of articles) of the research findings is the goal; use direct quotes sparingly.  Paper must be 20-‐25 pages in length, excluding Title page, Abstract, and References.  On the title page use only your Student ID number and title of your paper.  Use APA for style and references. 

Small Group and one-‐on-‐one discussion

DISSERTATION PROPOSAL In pursuing a doctoral degree, the most difficult task is deciding on a topic for study. Obviously to sustain the course, you need to pursue research in an area of interest as well as one that has critical implications for leadership. However, it is also important that you consider areas for research that match with faculty expertise so that we are able to provide you with the needed guidance. In the first quarter, opportunities will be made to review faculty bios and meet as many faculty as possible in one of the two research classes. In addition, you will share your interests with other classmates and be clustered in affinity groups to do some preliminary reading of research. You are encouraged to read broadly in the first quarter and not narrow your focus too quickly. After reading bios of the faculty, you are encouraged to set up appointments with any faculty you would like to know more about and see if there are shared research interests. In general you will be ready to defend your proposal by the end of the fall quarter or beginning of the winter quarter of the third year. The dissertation proposal defense will be scheduled once the chair determines it is ready to submit to other dissertation committee members. The proposal generally addresses the background, rationale, research questions, literature review, research design and methods of data collection to be used, and the significance of the study. You will also work with your chair to complete the needed Human Protection Protocols (IRB). The proposal serves as a critical guide for conducting the research and often becomes the foundation for the first three chapters of the dissertation. Of course, since it is only a proposal these chapters are revised and rewritten to align with the actual research conducted. 16

JDP DISSERTATION

We envision that you will achieve three important goals through JDP dissertation research. First, you will learn all the fundamentals of how to review current research and use this review to design and conduct a research study. Second, you will learn how to work as part of a research team with your chair and perhaps other JDP students, even as you pursue your own individual component of research. For example, you may explore the same major issue in different setting, investigate different dimensions of a complex problem, or use different methodologies to explore the same topic. Third, you will learn how to coordinate your own study with that of your faculty advisors and affinity group classmates so that the impact on the field can be maximized through joint articles, white papers or interactive website, or other means to collectively communicate to and inform the larger educational community. The dissertation will present the results of your investigation and you will defend your findings in an oral presentation to the committee that is open to the public. This presentation usually occurs at the end of the third year or in the first or second quarters of the 4th year. DISSERTATION PROCESS The dissertation process and research courses are designed to teach you how to identify critical problems suitable for research, review what is already known about the problem from the research of other scholars and where gaps in knowledge may remain, and design a research study that uses appropriate research methods to help close the knowledge gap. The culmination of this phase of the process results in the development of a dissertation proposal and the advancement to candidacy. The second phase is conducting the research, analyzing the data, and preparing a written dissertation based on the findings. During the first two quarters in the research classes, you will begin to identify problems of practice or issues that you may be interested in researching that have a direct bearing on leadership issues. You will learn about faculty interests and potential dissertation advisors. Students with common interests are urged to form affinity groups and begin to explore ways their studies could have a greater impact through collaboration and coordination. You are urged to consider forming collaborative research teams, similar to what might be found in a number of science fields. Although you pursue and complete a dissertation that is your own, you may work with a faculty member on a problem related to the professor’s interests and/or work with other students to (a) explore the same major issue in different locales or contexts, or (b) investigate different dimensions of a complex problem.

Dissertation Proposal Students select, develop and defend a research proposal for the dissertation by the end of Fall Quarter of the Second Year or Winter Quarter of the Third Year. The dissertation proposal is submitted to the student’s Dissertation Committee, who will examine the candidate on the proposal. The proposal will include the background, rationale, research questions, literature review, research protocol and methodology, and significance of the dissertation project. The proposal forms a foundation for the first part of the written dissertation, but of course is revised and rewritten in alignment with the findings of the actual research conducted. Support in developing the proposal is provided in EDS 290 and through work with your committee chair. Once your proposal has been successfully defended and the committee and other university officials have signed the required paperwork, you will file the advancement to candidacy form and pay the required fee. You will then be considered to have met the second critical milestone. Dissertation Developing the research proposal is a major accomplishment, but the end goal is to now conduct the research, analyze findings and write up the results in a dissertation. The goal of this process is to contribute to professional knowledge in education—yours and others in the broader community. Your chair will be your primary guide in this process. It is your responsibility to schedule regular meetings with your chair and to keep them informed about your progress or challenges you may be encountering. You will also be supported in this last leg of the journey by CSUSM and UCSD faculty teaching the dissertation writing seminars. Your fellow students, especially if you are pursuing a collaborative dissertation theme, or have developed other affinity groups also need to be seen as a key support group. As a community of scholars, our goal is to work together to ensure that all students are successful.

JDP GUIDELINES FOR PROPOSAL AND DISSERTATION PRESENTATIONS These guidelines are intended to assist you as students, chairs, and committee members to successfully complete the processes associated with forming the dissertation committee as well as your proposal and dissertation presentations. Advising: During the dissertation phase, the chair serves as the primary advisor who guides you in conducting your research and preparing the dissertation. The Director of the Joint Doctoral Program at each campus serves as the programmatic advisor for all students whose dissertation chair is on that campus’ faculty. The director/advisor, student, and chair will work together to ensure a smooth proposal and dissertation process. Chair Selection: As your interests begin to solidify through the research classes, your qualifying paper, your opportunities to learn about other students’ interests, as well as, faculty research agendas, you will be asked to identify three (3) possible chairs. The Joint Doctorate Executive Committee then reviews these preferences and works to honor requests by considering a good match of student to faculty member relative to topic and/or methodology, and to balance workload among faculty and across campuses. If you and other students want to pursue common or closely related issues with a faculty member, it is most likely that this faculty member will become the chair for each member of the group. Forming the dissertation committee: The chair of the committee and the campus JDP Director, with input from you, collaboratively decide who will be the other members of the three-‐ member dissertation committee. Potential committee members should not be contacted until the campus JDP Director has finalized the decision. Each committee must have a minimum of one CSUSM and one UCSD member. The committee must also have at least two faculty who are tenured at one or other of the two campuses. The Joint Doctorate Executive Committee and chair will take an active role in suggesting potential members. Each campus Director will assume the responsibility for assuring the proper forms are filed with the respective campus graduate student affairs offices. When to have the dissertation proposal presentation meeting: The JDP Cohort Model and timeline suggest that the dissertation proposal presentation occur by the end of the second year (Fall Quarter) or in the beginning of the third year (Winter Quarter). You are encouraged to complete your proposal as soon as practical in the Fall quarter of the second year in order to set a presentation time no later than the first month in the Winter quarter of the third year. An important point to remember is that a thorough and thoughtful proposal will facilitate better research in subsequent quarters. The proposal is presented for defense when the chair deems it is ready. Two weeks before the dissertation proposal presentation: It is your responsibility to give copies of your proposal to your committee members. Some members may want the proposal electronically and others in writing. Please consult with your committee members and see what is best for them. If the two-‐week deadline is not met, it is strongly suggested that the chair reschedule the meeting so committee members have adequate time to review the proposal prior to the presentation. 19

Scheduling the proposal presentation meeting: The chair and you schedule the proposal defense at a time convenient to all three committee members. Then, decide on which campus the defense is to be held and make room and parking arrangements by contacting the program assistant at the appropriate campus. The chair should not allow a meeting to be scheduled unless he/she is convinced that the proposal is ready. Once the meeting time is set and confirmed by the chair and all the committee members, you are responsible for sending the date, time and location to each JDP director and campus JDP staff who prepares an announcement of the defense. Please ask the appropriate JDP staff to download the signature form and pick it up before the defense. An announcement of the proposal presentation is sent to all current doctoral students and faculty inviting them to attend. A two-‐hour meeting for the proposal presentation is suggested. The primary purpose of the proposal defense is to ensure you are ready to carry out a well-‐designed study. At the beginning of the meeting, you will be asked to step outside while the committee members briefly discuss meeting format and any initial issues regarding the proposal. You should plan approximately 20 minutes to outline your problem, summarize key literature, and present the proposed methodology. The committee and you will decide if questions, which should be the bulk of the presentation, may be asked throughout the presentation or at the end. Generally a better dialogue occurs if questions are asked throughout. After all questions are asked by the committee members, then you will again be asked to step outside while the committee comes to a decision about whether to allow you to proceed with the proposed research and what, if any, changes are needed before proceeding. Finally, you will be invited to return, be informed of the decision, and provided with guidance on how to proceed. Again, the primary purpose is to demonstrate that you are ready to move forward and to draw on the entire committee’s wisdom to ensure the highest quality study possible. Dissertation Presentations It is anticipated that JDP dissertations will be presented at the beginning in the fall quarter at the end of your third year of study. However, research often follows an unpredictable path, therefore, it is anticipated that some students may conclude their doctoral studies and present their dissertations anytime between fall and spring quarters of their 3rd and 4th years of study. Within this time frame, all students should be able to graduate with their cohort. Guidelines for scheduling and presenting the dissertation presentations are similar to those described above for the proposal presentation. Given the length of the dissertation, however, you must submit your dissertation to your committee one month prior to the date and make contact with all committee members during that month to ascertain if there are questions or concerns. See Dissertation Norms described on the following pages.

Ed.D. Guidelines For Proposal Development Research studies vary in their topic, questions and methodology; nevertheless, there are common elements to most dissertation proposals. To assist you in preparing your research proposal, we suggest the following guidelines be used in consultation with your committee chair. I. Title Page, with committee members listed; Resume or Vitae; Acknowledgements II. Abstract III. Introduction A. Background/Context/Nature of the Study B. Statement of the Problem/Issue to be investigated including research questions C. Significance of the study IV. Literature Review A. This section typically includes two to four sections that present the research that outline what is known or not known in relationship to the general topic of the dissertation and the specific themes of the research questions posed. B. In a theoretically grounded study, a review of the literature in regard to the theory and how it will guide the study is presented. V. Methodology (the format of this section varies depending on the nature of the study) A. Research Design (Qualitative/Quantitative) B. Context or Site of the Study (more typical in qualitative studies) C. Participants D. Data to be collected 1. For quantitative studies, this usually involves a hypothesis, a description of variables to be measured, instruments to be used and how they will be administered. 2. For qualitative studies, this usually involves a discussion of interviews (number, who, when, protocols), observations (number, when, where, protocols), focus groups (number, who, when, protocols), and/or document analysis (which ones, why, approach to be used). Propositions can also be presented similar to hypotheses in qualitative studies. E. Data Analysis 1. For quantitative studies, statistical tests and analyses that will be conducted. 2. For qualitative studies, discussion of how data will be coded, themes identified, patterns illuminated and if any computer data analysis systems will be used. F. Issues of Validity, Reliability, Trustworthiness G. Ethical Issues and Role of Researcher H. Limitations of the Study 21

Each student will submit his or her IRB proposal at the institution where his or her committee chair resides. Based on a reciprocal acceptance arrangement between UCSD and CSUSM, the acceptance of the IRB from the chairperson’s institution will be accepted by the other JDP institution. For UCSD chair: The application can be downloaded from the website at: http://irb.ucsd.edu/forms.shtml The UCSD Human Research Protection Program (HRPP-‐IRB) website can be viewed at: http://irb.ucsd.edu For CSUSM chair: The Application is at CSUSM Human Subject Protection (IRB) website can be viewed at: http://www.csusm.edu/gsr/irb/ . Ed.D. Dissertation Norms and Guidelines 1. Complete drafts of the dissertations are to be distributed to the dissertation committee members one month prior to the scheduled presentation. All committee members must approve exceptions to this norm. 2. Prior to the presentation, the committee chair should communicate with all committee members to ensure that they agree that the dissertation is ready to be defended and to discuss any questions and issues that committee members have. 3. Prior to the presentation, the candidate should meet with each committee member to discuss the dissertation draft and to receive feedback and guidance for revisions. 4. Dissertation presentation meetings are announced and open to the public. UCSD will prepare the announcement information. The Program Directors for each campus will assure distribution of the information to appropriate individuals in their institutions. 5. Dissertation presentations are scheduled for a two-‐hour time block, the specific time agreed upon by the committee to be communicated to the UCSD EDS staff in charge of the JDP Program, who will reserve a space for UCSD defenses and announce the defense time and place to the faculty. Room arrangements for defenses scheduled for CSUSM will be made by the CSUSM campus JDP director. The presentation will be held on the campus to which the chair is affiliated. 6. Faculty may choose to meet in closed session at the beginning of the presentation to discuss the format and process, at the discretion of the chair of the dissertation committee. 7. Candidates are expected to present their work in a 30-‐40 minute power point and summary talk. Dissertation chairs have the ultimate decision about the length of the presentation and the format of the talk and should discuss this decision with the candidate. 22

8. The dissertation presentation meeting will remain open to the public until the committee discussion period, when the candidate and all visitors are asked to leave the room. 9. The meeting will reconvene at which time the Chair will report the decision and comments of the committee. Ed.D. Suggested Timeline

THE GRADUATE STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN (SHIP) The Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) is a comprehensive plan affiliated with a preferred provider network requiring written referral from the Student Health Service (SHS) staff. It provides a full range of medical services, including in/out patient services, specialty care, emergency care, hospitalization and mental health care, as well as pharmacy, dental and vision coverage. Enrollment is mandatory for graduate students unless a waiver is obtained from the SHS insurance coordinator. Since most EDS students are full time employees with health insurance, to not be double billed, you must secure a wavier. Students already covered by health insurance, which was in effect prior to acceptance as a graduate student at UCSD, may qualify for a waiver of the mandatory SHIP if the benefits are equal to or better than SHIP benefits. A listing of required documents is available from the Student Insurance Office at SHS. Approved waivers are effective for the current academic year. If you wish to waive out of SHIP for subsequent academic years, a new waiver application will need to be submitted by the appropriate deadline date each academic year. A list of current deadlines can be found on the SHS website. If You Do Not File The Waiver By the Listed Deadline, You Will Automatically Be Charged, THERE IS NO APPEAL. Student Health Services (SHS) is located in University Center; tel: (858)534-‐2123; Regular Hours: M, W, F 8am – 4:30pm, T, Thu (9am-‐4:30pm). Quarter Breaks/Summer: Regular hours, but closed between 12:00 -‐ 1:00pm. SHS is closed weekends and holidays. Website: http://studenthealth.ucsd.edu The Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) covers after-‐hours care only in cases of emergency. Visit the Student Health Services website for complete details of benefits, co-‐payments, deductibles, exclusions, waiver requirements, and limitations: http://studenthealth.ucsd.edu/Gshipmedical.shtml Premiums are assessed and paid with registration fees. Spring SHIP coverage continues automatically through the summer quarter. Information on separate health insurance plans for dependents is available at SHS. The State of California also offers dependent care insurance.

JDP GRADING STANDARDS FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS This document is intended to give you guidance in understanding what is expected of you and to help you interpret the grades you receive in the upper-‐division and graduate level courses you take as a graduate student while in the doctoral program. Additionally, you should understand that the Office of the Dean of Graduate Studies (OGS) monitors the GPA’s of all graduate students. A graduate student whose overall GPA drops below 3.0 is placed on academic probation. Students on academic probation risk dismissal if their GPA remains below 3.0 in future quarters. The CSUSM Office of Graduate Studies and Research will be informed of any student placed on academic probation. Although you may have few or no S/U courses allowed in your program, you should be aware of the University’s S/U grading policy. According to UCSD policy, the minimum standard of performance for a grade of S (satisfactory) is a course that is offered S/U shall be the same as the minimum performance for a grade of B. Any grade below B performance results in a grade of U (unsatisfactory) in an S/U course. Implications for a JDP student’s grade in a course A Excellent work, expected performance. A -‐ Good work, improved performance encouraged. B + Acceptable work, improved performance expected. B Minimally acceptable work, greatly improved performance expected. B -‐ Marginal work, very poor performance (letter from Director with copy placed in student’s file). C + (or lower) Unacceptable performance at the graduate level (may be subject to dismissal). Students who receive grades indicating that improvement in future courses is expected and who need guidance in how to improve are encouraged to confer with the course instructor and other program faculty.

APPEAL PROCEDURE FOR EDUCATION LEADERSHIP GRADUATE STUDENTS The Education Leadership program faculty is responsible for evaluating the academic performance for all of the students within the program. The faculty engages in a series of complex assessments to reach a comprehensive performance evaluation for each student. The appeal procedure is considered confidential unless both the student and the faculty member agree otherwise. The appeal procedure: 1. Present your case directly to the faculty member(s) involved. Most issues are resolved at this stage after all of the facts have been reviewed. 2. If you still feel your grievance has not been resolved to your satisfaction, make an appointment with the Program Directors at one or both campuses, to review the situation. If warranted, an ad hoc review committee comprised of faculty from both campuses will be constituted to perform a review of the case. 3. If your grievance has not been resolved to your satisfaction, you may: For denial of admission: Within two weeks of the admission denial letter date, submit a written request to the Education Studies Director, for a second interview with a subcommittee comprised of the co-‐directors of the Education Leadership Program. The letter should contain a statement outlining why re-‐consideration is warranted. If still unsatisfied, within two weeks of the review findings letter date, you may submit a written appeal to the Dean, Graduate Studies, UCSD. For appeal of a course grade: Submit a written appeal to the Director of Education Studies, UCSD. If the grievance is still not resolved to your satisfaction, submit a written appeal to the CEP Subcommittee on Grade Appeals at UCSD. There are submission deadlines that must be adhered to. Details on these deadlines are in the UCSD General Catalog. At CSUSM, for a grade appeal, consult Dr. P. Stall, Associate Dean. For denial of recommendation of Doctor of Education: Within two weeks of the recommendation denial letter date, submit a written appeal to the Dean, Graduate Studies, at UCSD. The Education Leadership Program is confident that you will be successful in your pursuit of your doctoral degree. We hope you will not find it necessary to employ the appeal procedure, but if you do find it necessary and you have questions about the appeal process, please feel free to discuss them with the Joint Doctoral Program Directors or the Director of Education Studies at UCSD or the Dean at CSUSM.

ACADEMIC HONESTY AND INTEGRITY OF SCHOLARSHIP POLICIES All Joint Doctoral Program students are expected to adhere to standards of academic honesty and integrity, as outlined in the “CSUSM Student Academic Honesty Policy” and the “UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship.” It is expected that all oral and written assignments will be original work.

Students using quoted material must mark with quotes such material and cite the sources. Examinations are to be completed honestly by the student. There will be no tolerance for infractions. Please bring any perceived infractions to the attention of the instructor who reserves the right to discipline any student for academic dishonesty in accordance with the general rules and regulations of the universities. Actions are delineated in the policies referenced above.

There is always time for a cup of coffee and a chat with an instructor.

ATTENDANCE POLICY

The Educational Leadership Program is exploring theories of leadership, reflecting on practice and solving problems together through the cohort model. Attendance is critical. As we promote system-‐thinking and inquiry-‐based problem solving in our learning opportunities, we require all of our professional students to be on time and present at each class meeting. Attendance expectations apply to all instructional activities, in class, on-‐line and at other events included in course syllabi. In a cohort model each student counts for the success of the whole!

CAROLYN HUIE HOFSTETTER Lecturer (SOE) Carolyn Huie Hofstetter earned her Ph.D. in Education, Social Research Methods, from the University of California, Los Angeles. Prior to joining the Education Leadership program at UCSD, she was an Assistant Professor at the University of California, Berkeley, Graduate School of Education, where she taught doctoral courses in evaluation practice and theory. Her career in education research began in adult literacy. Later, in graduate school at UCLA, she worked as a Research Associate for the Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST) and began a research program looking at the intersection of evaluation and assessment, with emphases on assessment accommodation for English language learners, evaluations in K-‐12 educational settings, and bridging evaluation theory and practice by seeing how theoretical issues (stakeholder involvement, evaluation use) play out in real evaluation settings. While at UC Berkeley, Carolyn was a PI or co-‐PI on several studies, including an evaluation of a K-‐5 transitional bilingual education program (San Jose USD), evaluation of an analytic procedure to align content standards and test items (AAAS/Project 2061), and an evaluation of a professional development program for mathematics teachers of English learners (LHS/EQUALS). Currently she is the PI for the federally funded evaluation of the Striving Readers Initiative at the San Diego USD, which provides intensive literacy instruction for middle and high school students. JIM (JAMES) LEVIN Professor This is Jim Levin's third time back to UCSD, and he hopes that the third time will be the charm. His research focuses on distributed learning and on ways to help people learn better using powerful distributed learning environments. He has developed several innovative models of learning, including the concept of teleapprenticeships. He has been studying "teaching teleapprenticeships", instructional frameworks that allow education students to learn within the context of remote K-‐12 classrooms. He is especially excited by the ways in which new technologies fundamentally change the relationship between education and the rest of society. He likes to take walks on the beach with his wife. PAULA LEVIN Senior Lecturer (SOE) & Graduate Adviser MA/Ed.D. in Teaching and Learning Paula Levin received her Ph.D. in Anthropology from UC San Diego, and has conducted research on schooling and culture in the United States, as well as in French Polynesia and Papua New Guinea. Her writings have addressed early literacy, teacher preparation, home-‐school relationships, curriculum design, and social, linguistic, and cultural aspects of learning. She has served as a research anthropologist in the Pre-‐Kindergarten Program at the Center for the Development of Early Education (CDEE) at the Kamehameha Schools in Honolulu, Hawaii. In that role, she led a curriculum development project team to develop and assess educational programs for native Hawaiian children ages 0-‐5. As a member of the Culture and Learning Department in CDEE, she was honored with the Kimball Award for Applied and Public 52

Anthropology, presented by the American Anthropological Association. Paula has worked on a number of collaborative projects, including "Visualizing Earth", an NSF-‐funded multi-‐site, multidisciplinary research project to study scientific visualization, and to integrate the use of space shuttle images into middle school earth science instruction. She has also served as Project Director of a Ford Foundation-‐funded study of university core instruction, called "Teaching Diversity and Learning Tolerance." Paula serves as affiliated faculty in UCSD's Program in Human Development and Department of Anthropology. In Spring 2000, she was named by the UCSD Academic Senate as a recipient of UCSD’s Distinguished Teaching Award. In 2008, Paula became Associate Faculty Director for Programs Abroad, and in that capacity works with the International Center staff to support the international studies of UCSD undergraduates. As well, since 2008 she has served as a member of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) Substantive Change Committee. In that capacity, she reviews new degree programs proposed by colleges and universities in the Western Region. MICA POLLOCK Director of Center for Research on Equity, Assessment, and Teaching Excellence Mica Pollock, an anthropologist of education, joins UCSD's Center for Research on Equity, Assessment, and Teaching Excellence (CREATE) as its new Director. Pollock's work explores communications that support student success in diverse schools and communities. Her first book, Colormute: Race Talk Dilemmas in an American School (winner of the 2005 AERA Outstanding Book Award), helped readers navigate six core U.S. struggles over talking (and not talking) in racial terms in schools. Because of Race: How Americans Debate Harm and Opportunity in Our Schools (2008), examined the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights as the background for analyzing common debates over improving the everyday school experiences of students and families of color. In Everyday Antiracism: Getting Real about Race in School (2008), Pollock next organized 70 scholars to write short essays for teachers. Winner of a 2008 Outstanding Book Award from the Gustavus Myers Center, “EAR” is being used to spark inquiry in schools and districts across the country. In 2009-‐11, Pollock began collaborating with educators, families, young people, and technologists in The Oneville Project in Somerville, MA, a participatory design research project piloting new ways that commonplace technology — cell phones, computers, free software — might help people who share students, schools, and a diverse community to communicate and collaborate regularly to support young people's success. Pollock and colleagues in San Diego are now forging a bicoastal partnership with OneVille participants and others to help improve the “communication infrastructure” of public education — that is, to assemble a set of free and low cost communication tools and strategies that support everyday collaboration and student support in diverse schools and communities. As the new Director of CREATE, Pollock is excited about helping to network UCSD's students, researchers, and professional development experts with the diverse K-‐12 educators, youth, and families of San Diego County. She and CREATE/EDS colleagues are now mapping educational partnerships linking UCSD to the San Diego community. Pollock previously taught high school in California and received her Ph.D. from Stanford.

ALISON WISHARD GUERRA Assistant Professor, Education Studies Alison Wishard Guerra is an Assistant Professor in the Education Studies Program at the University of California, San Diego. She received her Ph.D. in Education from UCLA with an emphasis in Psychological Studies in Education. Dr. Wishard Guerra’s research focuses on social and language development in early childhood, with particular focus on developmental competencies among Latino children from low-‐income families. She studies within group variations related to immigration and acculturation experiences and their associations to children's longitudinal developmental outcomes. Specifically in her narrative work she has sought to describe the normative development of narrative competencies among Mexican-‐ heritage children. Dr. Wishard Guerra was a member of the expanded research consortia that helped to develop the California Preschool Learning Foundations on English-‐Language Development.
