Descriptions of beneficial learning strategies

Reference no: EM13935580

Throughout the module, you have participated in activities and completed assignments that have helped prepare you to complete this Final Project. In the case of your Reflective Journal entries, you already have many of these completed. For your Leadership Critique, you should refer to the feedback you received on earlier related assignments, particularly your Draft Leadership Critique from Unit 4. Use the instructions below to complete each element of your Final Project. Reflective Portfolio Compile your Reflective Journal entries from Units 1 through 5 into a single document. Review each entry in light of the grading rubric and feedback received from your Faculty Member, and revise appropriately. You should seek to present appropriate illustrations and detailed descriptions of beneficial learning strategies that you have encountered and employed. Critically reflect on the strategies and explain how you feel your learning could be enhanced. Consider a variety of significant concepts and ideas gained from the Shared Activities and other learning experiences, and remember to support them with properly cited references. Add a final 2- to 3-paragraph summary of what you learned from completing your Reflective Journal entries, describing any growth or development you observed as you progressed through the module and addressing anything you plan to do differently in future modules to improve your approach to learning and critical self-reflection. Your submission should be approximately 2,500 words in length, in total. Leadership Critique You have completed several activities and assignments in this module on finding and summarising resources on leadership and connecting leadership concepts to your own experiences. As you have read and discussed, it is important for leaders to stay abreast of developments in the field of leadership and management and to maintain a critical stance towards new ideas and theories that emerge. This part of your Final Project will be your first opportunity in your programme to practice critical thinking and academic writing on leadership concepts. Prepare an essay of approximately 2,500 words using the following general outline: Introduction A description of one or two leadership theories, concepts or models that interest you, including a brief discussion on why you find them interesting or relevant to your work A discussion of how these leadership theories, concepts or models relate to your personal perspectives on leadership: in other words, whether you find them useful to explain your understanding of and experiences with leadership or whether they seem to conflict with your understanding and experiences, and how Conclusion References/Works Cited You will likely derive the most value from this assignment by choosing at least two leadership theories, concepts or models to critique, one which seems in accord with your personal perspectives on leadership and one which seems in conflict. This approach will allow you to compare and contrast the value of the two theories, concepts or models in making sense of your personal perspective and experiences. Examples of leadership theories, concepts and models you might address are found in readings throughout the unit. Some of these include the following: Leadership as a personality trait Servant leadership Situational leadership Styles of leadership Transactional leadership Transformational leadership In many cases, different authors use the same terms to describe different concepts or use different terms to mean what are essentially very similar ideas. Do not let terminology worry you; discuss your chosen concepts or theories in specific, descriptive language, without too much jargon. Good academic writing is clear and explanatory, not dense or obfuscatory (and, hopefully, does not include words such as obfuscatory!). To complete your Final Project, do the following: Use the DRAFT Turnitin link for the Unit 6 Final Project, accessed via the Turnitin page on the Module Menu, to check your Project for accidental plagiarism before submitting it. Submit your Final Project, including both the Reflective Portfolio and Leadership Critique, in one Word document to the Final Project Turnitin submission link in the Final Project area of the Module Menu.
