When controversies arise in schools, educators often research and access resources to support analysis, reflection, and problem-solving of these issues that affect the field of education, their students, and various other stakeholders involved.

Using your assignment from Topic 2 and the three scholarly resources you selected, transform your ideas into a complete 1,000-1,250 word rough draft. Your research should focus on a controversial topic involving a cultural identifier and the implications for K-12 public education. The final version will be submitted in Topic 7.

Address the following in your research rough draft:

• Describe the cultural identifier and why you chose it. Explain your connection to your choice of cultural identifiers.
• Summarize the key historical events that have significantly affected your specific cultural identifier.
• Summarize the topic in context of K-12 education, including the related cultural identifier and any associated controversies.
• Identify current opinions for the controversial argument, including at least one supporting and one opposing.
• Describe how this controversial issue could affect your future teaching practices and how it could affect your future students.
• Summarize related policies or methods that have been implemented in schools as a solution to the controversial issue.
