Abstract

Within this country, many young students do not have access to the quality education they deserve due to different factors that may have hindered their educational journey. As a group, we plan on interviewing others who attend IMSA and ask questions about how education has affected them as a student. We also plan on looking at socioeconomics, and their school curriculum that affected their development in academics. This is a recurring issue that needs to be addressed because within our group, we come from communities that lack quality education. Now that we are at IMSA, we regret our lower school education experience due to our district's failure to demonstrate concepts to their fullest extent within the curriculum. One possible solution to our problem is a plan to implement in underfunded schools in communities, this could be a reading plan, writing plan, or teaching all of the concepts of elementary courses, to help provide quality education for all. We chose this artifact because this is a creative and fun way to address our problem. Also, we will be getting primary sources from students who live here at IMSA. Our ultimate goal is to provide solutions for quality education in underserved communities with little to no cost. By deconstructing the norm of underserved communities and finding ways to implement more ways to lift these communities. We will know that this project will be a success when we can share the surveys with boards of education to increase funding for underserved school districts. Others will be able to explore our ideas and experience the success when we can carry our ideas to the rest of Illinois, and create an act for these underprivileged communities. We will present our video and our posters about how to introduce progressive quality education methods to low-economic neighborhoods that struggle in education.
