SUBJECT: EDUCATION

Students will research and articulate five (5) quotes in each of the domains listed below which best reflects the way you see the world.  These quotations should be meaningful to you personally and professionally. (QUOTES HAVE BEEN PROVIDED  BELOW)

Each student will write an aggregated reflective summary that:·

Expresses why you value the selected quotes and how you see them affecting your practice as an administrator.·      

Compare and contrasts the quotes you selected to the “current reality” that you observe daily.·      

Compare and contrast the quotes you valued to your present behavior.   

Ask yourself, “How closely would an outside observer associate your behavior with those you articulated that you valued”?·      Assess your current reality (what you presently know and do) with the concepts expressed in your selected quotes.  

Where do you see the largest gap between what you value (per the quotes selected) and your current capacity and what more would you need to know and learn to align you respoused theories with your future reality?
