My colleague Jim Rubin and I attended the Phi Theta Kappa Leadership Development Cerification Seminar in Henderson, NV, June 8 - 11, 2006. We will be using the curriculum in a new learning community this fall: "Leadership That Makes A Difference", that combines Honors Forum (HUM 190) with Dynamics of Leadership (CPD103BL). We chose this highly rated curriculum because it combines academic, intellectual endeavor with skill development. ------------------------------------------------------------ Outcomes: In a paragraph or two describe what worked well. Did you accomplish your objective(s)? Were you able to complete your summer project as written? If not, what did you modify and why? What did not go as well as expected, if anything? Were there any surprises? Note: Use the questions as guides for your outcomes. Do not include detailed list of workshops attended, speakers who presented, or a list of items you have seen, heard, or read. ------------------------------------------------------------ We completed the summer project as written. The seminar was very well done and the materials that we received are excellent. We were given a copy of the student textbook and the instructor's guide. We were required to read a lot of the material prior to the seminar. The seminar itself was set up for us to experience the curriculum as students would. We began to plan how to use this humanities-based material in our learning community. I personally learned a great deal about the concept of leadership. Using classic literature, film clips, and experiential activities to teach leadership is a new approach for me and has given me many new "tools" to make me a more effective instructor. ------------------------------------------------------------ Professional Growth: Your own professional growth is a large part of your project. Your professional growth is important to you, your students, your college, and possibly other colleagues. How did project affect you professionally? What skills did you learn? What environments were you working in and how might your summer project influence your teaching or other responsibilities? Did you gain a different perspective? Was it professionally valuable for you? ------------------------------------------------------------ I learned a lot about myself as a leader. I had several ah-ha moments when I realized that some of my behaviors as a leader are not effective. My personal philosophy of leadership changed as we examined some great leaders in history and what made them successful. I will take what I learned and use it in my various roles at PVCC as well as using it to teach leadership skills to students. I particularly liked the use of film clips in the training and I plan to incorporate this teaching technique in my other classes as well. ------------------------------------------------------------ Dissemination: How will you share this information with your colleagues, department, students, or college? ------------------------------------------------------------ Jim and I will be sharing what we learned with the committee that directs the Emerging Leaders program on our campus. We will also be sharing it with the people in charge of the new PVCC Peak leadership certificate program that begins this fall. I also plan to share it with the Honors Coordinators and the PTK Advisors. Note!
