How do I consider using the four challenges of change in Stroh’s (2015) systems thinking framework to better understand the social problem of inclusion for individuals with developmental disabilities. In addition, consider the differences between using a systems approach and a conventional, linear approach to address the problem. 

Provide 2-to-3-pages (not including a title page or reference list) that addresses the following components of the Final Project.

• State the Problem You Selected. Provide a succinct statement that articulates what you currently know about inclusion for individual with developmental disabilities within the community.
• Reframe the Problem.  Explain how the problem has been framed in the past. Then, reframe the problem using people-first, strength-based language. 
• Apply Systems Thinking to Understand the Problem. Using the MCFL systems thinking framework from the Stroh text, describe the problem in terms of:
  • Motivation: Why should things change?
  • Collaboration: Who is affected and who are the stakeholders?
  • Focus: Why should stakeholders collaborate to solve the problem? What should be done to leverage change?
  • Learning: Why should the public bother to make the change? What do they need to learn? What is missing (needs)? What language should be used to frame the overall social problem?
• Explain the differences between using a conventional, linear approach versus a systems approach to address the problem. What are the major differences?
