<strong>EDU</strong> <strong>644</strong> <strong>Week</strong> 1 <strong>DQ</strong> 2 <strong>Evaluating</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Impact</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Poverty</strong> A <strong>Review</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Quality</strong> <strong>Online</strong> <strong>Resources</strong><br />

Post Due by Day 3.An important part <strong>of</strong> assisting<br />

at-risk children and families is having knowledge<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> resources and programs available as<br />

sources <strong>of</strong> support. As such, a significant part <strong>of</strong><br />

your course work in <strong>EDU</strong><strong>644</strong> involves discovering,<br />

analyzing, and creating resources! In your analysis<br />

<strong>of</strong> various descriptions <strong>of</strong> at-risk this week in<br />

Discussion 1, you discovered that those living in


poverty are at-risk, with significant factors<br />

impacting <strong>the</strong>ir well-being and ability to thrive. In<br />

this discussion, you will examine online resources<br />

with information and supports for individuals and<br />

groups in poverty. Using what you discover, start<br />

developing your ideas for <strong>the</strong> website you will<br />

begin to create in <strong>Week</strong> Two.. Therefore, during<br />

your investigation, it is important that you take<br />

note <strong>of</strong> how <strong>the</strong> websites are organized and <strong>the</strong><br />

way content is presented. Considering what makes<br />

a resource effective will help you design<br />

comparable organization and content structures in<br />

your own website. To prepare for this discussion,<br />

examine <strong>the</strong> <strong>Poverty</strong> USA website. Additionally,<br />

review <strong>the</strong> <strong>Week</strong> One Instructor Guidance, making<br />

sure to review <strong>the</strong> intellectual elaboration and <strong>the</strong><br />

section dedicated to guidance for <strong>the</strong> assessments.<br />

Initial Post: Create an initial post addressing <strong>the</strong><br />

following:<br />

a. Summarize what you learned from <strong>the</strong> <strong>Poverty</strong><br />

USA website and how this knowledge will be useful


to you in your current or future pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

practice.<br />

b. Summarize <strong>the</strong> statistical data from <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Poverty</strong> USA website that explains <strong>the</strong> impact<br />

poverty has on children and families and include<br />

at least one example <strong>of</strong> a program, policy, or<br />

resource that provides support. Be sure to explain<br />

how <strong>the</strong> example provides support and cite where<br />

<strong>the</strong> information is located on <strong>the</strong> <strong>Poverty</strong> USA<br />

website.<br />

c. Describe <strong>the</strong> organizational and content<br />

features <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Poverty</strong> USA website that were<br />

particularly helpful, innovative, interactive, or that<br />

o<strong>the</strong>rwise caught your attention and that you<br />

might emulate when creating your own website in<br />

this course.<br />

d. Using your preferred search engine, locate at<br />

least one additional website focused on groups in


poverty and cite <strong>the</strong> website in your initial post.<br />

Include a two-to-three sentence description <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

type <strong>of</strong> information included in <strong>the</strong> website.<br />

e. Describe <strong>the</strong> organizational and content<br />

features <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> website you located that were<br />

particularly helpful, innovative, interactive, or that<br />

o<strong>the</strong>rwise appealed to you and that you might<br />

emulate when creating your own website in this<br />

course.<br />

Guided Response: Respond to a minimum <strong>of</strong> two<br />

peers. In your responses, compare your peers’<br />

summaries <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Poverty</strong> USA website to your own<br />

and discuss how your summaries differed and<br />

what may account for those differences. <strong>Review</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> additional resource your peers’ provide and<br />

consider <strong>the</strong>ir description. What else might<br />

effectively describe <strong>the</strong> type <strong>of</strong> information in <strong>the</strong><br />

resource? Finally, discuss <strong>the</strong> resources reviewed<br />

and <strong>the</strong> organizational and content features your<br />

peers’ said <strong>the</strong>y might emulate, considering


whe<strong>the</strong>r you might also emulate those design<br />

features in your website. Though two replies is <strong>the</strong><br />

basic expectation, for deeper engagement and<br />

learning you are encouraged to respond to any<br />

comments or questions o<strong>the</strong>rs have provided to<br />

you.
