SLOs

This LS 200 course engages student learning and practicing the application of specific leadership theories and practices. In particular, studies include Bolman and Deal's leadership frames: Human Resource, Political, Structural and Symbolic frames. 

One of the outcomes for week two includes:

Articulate personal BSC goals and Structural Frames in place to support those goals.  

The course learning outcomes are those outlined in the Leadership Studies program for this course to ensure consistency across sections. These include: 

·               I can identify and apply major conceptions of leadership to my own experiences and to new examples

·               I can compare and analyze the ways that different authors conceptualize leadership and assess the strengths and weaknesses of those conceptions

·               I can entertain ideas that I might initially find unusual or foreign related to leadership

·               I can think critically by identifying my own assumptions about leadership, how those assumptions were formed, and how others might reasonably hold alternative assumptions about leadership

·               I can understand how a person’s cultural background and other primary influences on identity influence their perspectives on leadership.

·               I can write critically and carefully about the way people conceptualize leadership

·               I can write and reflect critically on how to transfer my understandings of leadership into practice

SLO five can be stronger. For example, "I can describe how a person's cultural background and other primary influences on identity influence their perspectives on leadership."
