Disruptive Innovation Proposal

Dear Mr. Peralta,

     I am writing to propose an innovative solution to enhance our students' goal-setting and tracking processes by leveraging technology. This proposal outlines the steps we can take to implement a system that allows students to record and monitor their goals on a daily and yearly basis. The primary issue we face is the lack of a structured and consistent method for students to set, track, and achieve their goals. This challenge has resulted in students struggling to maintain focus and motivation, ultimately impacting their academic and personal growth.

     To address this, I propose the implementation of a digital goal-tracking system. This system will enable students to set daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly goals, and track their progress through a user-friendly app or platform. The key components of this solution include a mobile app or web-based platform for goal setting and tracking, integration with existing school systems for seamless access, and features for reminders, progress tracking, and motivational prompts.

     There are several specific actions required to implement this solution. First, we need to research and select a suitable goal-tracking app or platform that meets our needs. Next, we should customize the chosen platform to align with our school's curriculum and student requirements. Following this, we will need to train students and staff on how to use the platform effectively. Finally, we will launch the platform and provide ongoing support and updates.

     Implementing this solution will provide several benefits. Students will have a clear and structured way to set and achieve their goals, boosting their motivation and engagement. Regular goal tracking will help students stay focused on their academic objectives, leading to better performance. Additionally, students will develop essential skills such as time management, self-discipline, and accountability.

     To successfully implement this solution, I request the following resources: research on various behavior and academic SMART goals that students can set, IT support for integration and maintenance of the platform, and resources for training sessions for students and staff.

     Thank you for considering this proposal. I am confident that this initiative will benefit our Aldine Middle School students and contribute to their overall success.

​​​​

Thank you for considering this proposal. 

Sincerely, 
Saria L. Nixon
