PROJECT PROPOSAL

FOR
SCHOOL
INNOVATION
Janeth C. Palomo
Elementary School Principal I
 Rationale
 Pursuant to Republic Act No. 9155 known as
Governance of Basic Education Act of 2001, this
policy aims to strengthen School-Based
Management (SBM) by further devolving the
governance of education to schools, expanding
community participation and involvement, and
making the delivery of education services to the
learners more responsive, efficient, and effective
through an enhanced school planning and
improvement that lays down specific interventions
through initiated project in schools.
 Rationale
In consonance with such Act, all
teaching and non-teaching personnel are
encouraged to create, innovate school-
based initiated projects geared towards
the improvement of teaching-learning
process and school governance.
 Who will innovate?
 Teachers, Master Teachers, Head Teachers,
Principals and Non-teaching personnel can make a
project on the following:
 Project that produces innovative ideas about using
technology and innovations in the teaching-
learning process
 Project that will help advance the knowledge
about using the technology to support student
learning.
 Project-based classroom rather than book-based
instruction
 What do we mean with
innovation?
 Innovation is the introduction of
new ideas, goods, services and practices
which are intended to be useful.

• Wikipedia.org/wiki/innovation
 Innovation
 it could address gaps on access, quality and
relevance and governance or management of
education services such as:
 increase enrolment/participation rate, reduce/
zeroing-in drop-out rate, and reduce
failure rate
 it could improve academic performance,
 enhance learning environment/improve
physical facilities
 product of contextualization and indigenization
 What do we mean by
innovation?
 Something new or improved, including
research for:

(1) development of technologies,

(2) refinement of existing technologies,
(3)development of new applications for existing
technologies.

 What do we mean by
innovation?
 It can be defined as the process of
implementing new ideas to create value for
an organization. This may mean creating a
new service, system, or process, or
enhancing existing ones. Innovation can also
take the form of discontinuing an inefficient
or out-of-date service, system, or process.

 What is Innovation?
 According to Business Dictionary. It is a process of translating an idea
or invention into a good or service that creates value or for which customers
will pay.
To be called an innovation, an idea must be replicable at an economical cost
and must satisfy a specific need. Innovation involves deliberate application
of information, imagination and initiative in deriving greater or different
values from resources, and includes all processes by which new ideas are
generated and converted into useful products. In business, innovation often
results when ideas are applied by the company in order to further satisfy
the needs and expectations of the customers.

 Innovation in Education

Requires Risk-Analysis- this can helps

identify and manage potential problems
that could undermine a project

Disciplined undertaking – example:

3 Kinds of Innovation in Education

According to Elizabeth Hunter
1.Structure- ways classrooms and schools are
organized
2.Content- introduce new subjects or revised old
subjects in new ways
3.Process- those that have to do with human
interaction

 Project Classification

1. Access
2. Quality and relevance- Curriculum
3. Governance
 Current Innovations
in Education
 DLP- Dynamic Learning Program
 Teachxcels – (Teaching & Learning Excellence
in School Leadership for Southeast Asia)
This is a two-module e-learning short course
consisting of 4 weeks on-line classes/activities. This is
designed for supervisors and school principals. It
addresses the need to develop and strengthen the
capacity to manage the teaching-learning processes in
school.
 Current Innovations
in Education
 Project IMPACT ( Instructional Management by
Parents, Community and Teachers)
 NCBTS ( National Competency-Based Teacher
Standards
 ICExcels ( Instructional and Curricular Excellence in
School Leadership and Management
 OTOP (Observe the Observer Program)

 Current Innovations
in Education
Project APEX (Applied Academics in Excellence)
 is an innovation in teaching and learning that connect
students learning to the development goals of the
community. It prepares the youth academically and
technically to pursue post secondary education and a
career or enterprise of choice by exposing them to
relevant curriculum, interactive activities and real-life
applications.

 Guidelines
in Writing a Project Proposal

 A Project Proposal, often called a "Statement of

Work,” is a persuasive document. Its objectives are to:
 Identify what work is to be done
 Explain why this work needs to be done
 Persuade/convince the reader that the proposer is
qualified for the work, have a plausible management
plan ( objectives/goals and planned procedures) and
technical approach (defines your offering or saying
what you will do or deliver), and have the resources
needed to complete the task within the stated time and
cost constraints.
 What makes
a good proposal?

 It must be qualified to benefit the learners and other

stakeholders, have a plausible management plan and
the resources needed to complete the task within the
stated time and cost estimates/approximation of the
probable cost of the project computed on the basis of
available information.  
 One attribute is appearance. A strong proposal has
an attractive, professional, inviting appearance. In
addition, the information should be easy to access.

• www.ehow/com/how
• www.businessdict.comionary
 What makes
a good proposal?

 A second attribute is substance . A strong

proposal has a well-organized plan of attack. A
strong proposal also has technical details
because technical depth is needed to sell your
project.

Remember: A proposal is a persuasive document.

 Five examples of innovation in today’s
schools

 To improve communication skills among students,

one school broadcasts a student-run TV studio. 
During each broadcast, students highlight each
other’s creative work. As part of the school’s Respect
Project, designed to foster civility and manners,
students create and edit videos highlighting the value
or manner of the month. Those videos are broadcast
on the student newscast. Through the TV studio,
students must collaborate and become producers of
21st-century media by shooting, producing, directing,
and executing the live broadcast.
 Five examples of innovation in today’s
schools

 As part of a performance-based learning initiative,

students in another entry created, designed, and built
their own recycling bins to improve sustainability
efforts at their school. The project required students
to identify issues in the current waste management
program, research solutions, and collaborate with
students in other areas of the school, such as
broadcast and robotics, to execute an advertising
plan to promote their solution.
 Five examples of innovation in today’s
schools

 In another entry, a student describes her innovation

project that began when she learned from her music
teacher that vocal warm-ups should change depending
on the type of music she will be singing. Through
research on appropriate vocal training, the student is
now developing an app that leads singers through the
perfect warm up. Now that’s innovation!

 Five examples of innovation in today’s
schools

 From apps to robots, technology is greatly infused in

these innovative programs. One school connects its
students to science, engineering, and technology by
collaborating to enter a unique robotics competition.
The school’s robot—designed, engineered,
programmed, and built by students—plays basketball!

students read biography or autobiography titles
and use technology tools and art to create a
graphic biography.
