  3. Learning Growth Spring Semester, 2014 Fall Semester, 2014 Summer Semester, 2013

  4. Summer, 2013 EDLP 700 was a great introduction to some of the faculty, the new cohort, and to a fresh look at our leadership preferences (LCI) and personality styles (MBTI). We also got to know Lencioni and the team well, indeed!

  5. Fall, 2013 EDLP 702/703 & 715 were a challenging & humbling combination of classes. Scholarly writing and statistics instruction opened my eyes to the rigors of academic scholarship.

  6. Spring, 2014 Lots of thought provoking ideas and practices presented in both the legal and ethics classes with plenty of opportunity for application.

  7. Personality & Leadership Style • Empathy with the victim spurs action. • Sequence allows for a methodical approach to problem-solving. • Confluence frees up think outside the box and be energized with the possibilities. 1 Putting it All Together

  8. B&D’s Symbolic Framework A school’s success depends on its culture. Students must first feel safe and included. They must feel as they are important to the mission of the school. Students will be loyal to a place where they feel they play an important role. 2 Learning from Bolman & Deal

  9. Reporting & Collecting Data Research shows that schools must collect tangible and clearly defined data on bullying incidents. This data needs to provide a starting point for bully-prevention program implementation. It then should be collected as benchmark data for program evaluation. 3 It’s all about the data.

  10. Transformation • Build support. • Planning group. • Map the policy. • Gather resources. • Implement. • Collect data. • Evaluate. • Revise. • Subsequent generations. 4 Policy Implementation

  11. Take Time for Ethics Spangler-I’m an individualist-consider each person; may be indecisive Ethical Reasoning Am I applying a rule? Good of one vs. all? Who is negatively impacted? Costs & benefits? Maintaining relationships. All points of view heard? 5 Ethical Considerations
