With your group, read the following article for your Guided Reading Assignment:
The Darkside of Leadership You will meet in assigned groups to discuss the assigned reading for the designated weeks. Each
group will determine a time to meet and each group member will have a rotating role. The roles
include discussion leader, creative connector, critical perspective, and reporter. For groups with three
members, you must have a discussion leader and reporter. You can choose whether to have a creative
connector or critical perspective and alternate for each post. These group assignments will be
uploaded in Moodle. Each group must have a virtual meeting and submit the guided reading handout
by the deadline given in the Course Map. Each guided reading is worth 100 points. See below for
more details regarding the roles:
• The
discussion leader is responsible for facilitating the group discussion and developing at
least
three questions to ask the group. The questions should prompt the group members to
think deeply about the main points of the readings. You may highlight passages from the
readings to emphasize key points and summarize information. The discussion leader will also
make sure that all group members have an opportunity to speak during the meeting. The leader
will add the discussion questions to the discussion summary.
• The
creative connector will make
(at least two) connections among the readings and to social, cultural,
political, or economic conditions related to how we navigate and embrace leadership. - supported by citations. You will add the connections
to the discussion summary.
• The
critical perspective shares
(at least two) critiques of the readings and offers a different perspective than what’s presented in the readings. You will need to add them to the discussion summary.
• The
reporter will provide a summary of the discussion including what was discussed,
significant points, content that is unclear or additional questions as a result of the discussion,
and additional information you would like to share. The reporter must participate in the
discussion as well. The reporter will
write the discussion summary and post it to Moodle in the
designated discussion board.
Please note: The summary should include the role of each group member and
their contribution to the group (i.e. discussion questions, creative connection, opposition
points, etc.). The summary should be at least two pages in length, Times New Roman, in 12point font, and double-spaced. One submission is necessary for each group.
