Assignment Title: Reflective Journal (CO 1-8)
Overview: Journaling is a way to use reflection as a tool to reinforce learning. It also helps with self-awareness- looking at strengths and things that you are proud of, as well as things that you would like to improve upon. Sometimes, it allows us to plan for a course of action that we would like to take on certain situations. It lets us explore feelings about topics that perhaps, we don’t want to share with others, but want to be able to acknowledge and process for ourselves.
Directions: Write about your reaction to the course content, the readings, and your own leadership style. Reflect on your personal growth, understanding, and development as a leader that has occurred as a result of this course. Discuss what will be your focused continued leadership development areas after this course ends.
Rubric: Full credit for this assignment will be awarded if all components are included. These are your thoughts and feelings- they really can’t be ‘right’ or ‘wrong’. Please be sure to thoughtfully consider all of the points in the directions above.
