Communication and Leadership

• During your course of study in the M.Ed. program you have learned about the importance of communication and leadership to be an effective educational professional. In a one- to two-page paper, reflect on what you learned about the importance of communication in your field and the different leadership styles and strategies that you can use in order to maximize learning.
• Examine how your coursework in the M.Ed. program and your work experience have helped you to grow in the areas of communication and leadership and how you have used or will use these competencies in your current and / or future position.
• Attach one to three pieces of evidence or artifacts from your previous coursework or work environment to demonstrate your competencies in the areas of communication and leadership (e.g., workshop documents of a presentation prepared and delivered to colleagues, documentation to show improved student scores or trainee performance, pictures of you using a pertinent form of technology in the classroom, etc.) Identify the ID and title (for example: EDU599 – Education Capstone) of the courses for which you had produced the assignment(s). Note: When incorporating information from the workplace, be sure to remove all identifying information such as the name of the organization, the names of individual affiliates, and sensitive or proprietary information. Check with your supervisor before you share information from your workplace.
