ASSESSMENT DESCRIPTION:
This assessment is an individual activity. You need to keep a reflective journal, which you will later use
to inform a written assignment in an essay format. You may be asked to include comment on lectures,
performances and the pre-reading and classroom experience. You may organise your reflection based
on these three topics from the following chapters: 1. Chapters 1, 2 & 3: Introduction to leadership
2. Chapters 4, 5, 6 & 7: The personal side of leadership
3. Chapters 8, 9, 10, 11 & 12: The leader as relationship builder
The content of the reflection is up to you, although it should be based on the ideas and discussions
from class and the relevant assigned readings. As well, a number of activities and reflection questions
will be suggested in each class. Reflective Journal entries must demonstrate application of course
materials to personal experience and observations and include an evaluation of those experiences and
also lessons learned.
Important Note: If you do not attend class, you will not be able to submit a comprehensive reflection.
ASSESSMENT SUBMISSION:
The assignment must be submitted online in Moodle. All materials MUST be submitted electronically
