Recommendation: To Establish Participative Decision Making in School

Topic: To establish Participative Decision Making in school
Group Memo (Draft II)
Current Situation
Our client is fully supportive of our project. We have informed the client of what Participative Decision Making is and how it is working for El Rancho Schools District. We have also made a handout of basic information of PDM for other faculties including PE teachers and the principle to view and our surveys for faculties and students are separate because we would like to know students' first impressions without knowing the PDM framework behind it. Hopefully, we can get the feedback soon and start to work on more complete recommendations and evaluations. We have contacted Joyce Mann and Joanna Yu for some suggestions. They have invited us to meet Mary Su, former Mayor of Walnut and now active in a parent-teacher association (PTA) for some advice.
Our group determined that there the current situation in the school is wanting, and we have to address the problems to ascertain a better future for the school. The current situation shows that there is ineffective communication between students and the school. Students' learning experiences may be enhanced through effective communication between the school and the students. This can help to create a more pleasant learning school environment. The partnership, on the other hand, requires effort on both sides. Students' ability to get the most out of their education is surely hampered by communication hurdles in the classroom (Iversen et al., 2017). There are a variety of factors that might be contributing to the lack of communication between professors and pupils. It is possible for both sides to remain mute if neither the school nor the student advances the dialogue or states their expectations. In addition, communication between professors and pupils may be impeded by variations in personalities between the two parties. Several studies have shown that many students are reluctant to interact on a deeper level with their professors and thus avoid talking with them. This psychological dynamic may be discouraging for instructors who make repeated attempts to establish a personal connection with each individual only to be met with failure.
Further, because of the differences in cultural backgrounds, it is normal for both teachers and students to have preconceived notions about how to behave in certain situations. When messages are conveyed in a manner that is unusual to the student's culture, they are more likely to be misinterpreted. In the classroom, when students react to professors by behaving funny, cool, or disinterested, peer pressure may cause communication breakdowns between students. Students may choose not to form ties with their professors in order to retain their image as students who are not very engaged in school (Mokhtari et al., 2020). Parents regularly participate in their children's education: boosts children's self-esteem boosts children's academic performance Enhances parent-child interactions by assisting parents in developing good attitudes about school and a greater grasp of the educational process. Today's working parents are often hesitant to commit to school events or meetings, particularly if they believe they will consume a significant a...
