Technical
discussion of JWST observations of exoplanets
Mike Dunham has an
excellent
young star survey paper for the Gould’s Belt; see also his previous paper.
In general, the volume
Protostars and Planets VI has a number of good
chapters on this stuff. The early
talks from the conference on which this is based could
be useful tutorials for students.
Don’t forget about
mid-IR gas tracers for outflow and infall rates.
And there’s a
nice poster on this by Oliver Krause and the rest of the
MPIA star/planet formation group.

Mexiner’s whitepaper on SAGE and the LMC begins to address it,
but you’re justifiably looking for something focused on Milky Way star
forming region science cases. Please read Neal Evan's
Spitzer/Herschel star forming region overviews

Recent compilations of high-z quasars, good for context may be found

(where I would look for QSOs to target with JWST), and

WFIRST is a wide-field space-based imaging survey, which will be sensitive to rare high-redshift quasars. This is a paper about the M-sigma relation at high redshift. And this is an article focused on finding the first black holes with JWST. This is an older paper on a related topic. Finally, this is a paper about cosmic reionization and JWST.
