Book Media Education Assessment Handbook

Download or read book Media Education Assessment Handbook written by William G. Christ and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Assessing media education is a formidable task because both assessment and media education are complex and controversial concepts. Assessment, which can take place at the individual student, class, sequence, program, department or unit, and university levels, is questioned in terms of reliability, validity, relevance, and cost. Media education, which has been challenged at a number of schools, finds faculty and administrators in the midst of soul-searching about how to clearly articulate its missions and purposes to a broader audience. Departments are under increasing national, state, and institutional pressure to get assessment procedures carried out quickly, but there is an obvious danger in rushing to implement assessment strategies before establishing what is essential in media education. In communication education in general, the "what" of assessment is often discussed in terms of skills, attitudes, affect, values, and knowledge. People assess students to determine what they know, think, feel, value, and can do. Here it is suggested that one of the places to start defining what students should learn from their media education is by identifying outcomes. Outcomes can be assessed in a variety of ways, but first they need to be developed and clearly articulated.

Book The Leadership Core

Download or read book The Leadership Core written by Will Schirmer and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An encyclopedia of leadership research and philosophy…Each chapter is chock full of big learnings. Savor, absorb and apply.”—David Cottrell, author of Monday Morning Leadership Whether in the boardroom, on the battlefield, or in sports competition, the difference between success and failure often begins and ends with the quality of those who lead. Effective leaders can produce outstanding team performance, inspire others to overcome adversity and challenge, and help unlock potential and fulfillment for their people. Poor leaders can cripple progress, decrease productivity and results, and drive people toward the door. Leadership is often viewed as a ‘black box’—an unexplainable phenomenon that sits between the input of effort and the output of desired results. What does ‘good’ leadership look like, and how do we develop the ability to successfully lead? Intended for both current and aspiring leaders, The Leadership Core explores several primary competencies, as well as the concept of character, that help leaders become more effective and inspiring. Interspersed with pauses for reflection on one’s own leadership today, The Leadership Core can be a valuable tool for both leaders at all levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership, as a discipline, leadership education, as a field, and leadership educator, as a profession are still in their infancy and rapidly evolving. As professionals in higher education, we are constantly asked to provide opportunities for students to learn leadership, whether that is inside or outside of the classroom. However, very little, if any professional development occurs in how to create such learning opportunities. This book provides resources for leadership educators in three sections. The first section sets the stage for leadership education and the professional work of leadership educators, culminating with a variety of professional development resources for leadership educators. The second section introduces a leadership learning framework, provides characteristics and examples of strong leadership programs and assessment practices, and describes the transformative practice of leadership education. The third and final section offers specific instructional and assessment strategies ranging from discussion, case study, and reflection, to team-based- and service-learning to self-assessments, role-play, simulation, and games, to fulfill learning outcomes.
