Csip Reflection

Decent Essays
This was an excellent chapter to read as I am putting together my CSIP. After doing my interview, I have gained a different perspective on the problems at the school where I currently work. Many of the issues I knew about, but others have not yet been discussed because of an ongoing court case. Several of these principles caused me to pause and reread them (Robinson, 2011). I was looking at it from the view of the current administrator. The third principle is that we can all learn to be more creative, I believe this statement is true. When I look at this administrator when he first arrived at our school three years ago, he said he was not good at get together or planning stuff. When it was time for teacher appreciation week, he did nothing;

    ELAD542 M2 DISC Applying the ISLLC Standards and the 11 Top Ten Most Wanted Strategies for school culture by Sorenson & Goldsmith, to transform the Earl Roloff Elementary School, in Combes Public School System, into a model school using a $150,000 grant will be a worthwhile challenge! When the new superintendent demonstrated a collaborative leadership style by forming a Principal interview team that included both veteran and new teachers to choose the new principal, it well-received; therefore, as the new principal, following through with a similar collaborative style would likely be successful. In my perspective, the principal needs to develop a strategic plan that creates a shared vision and goals with a variety of stakeholders, provides professional development for the staff to achieve those goals, and reaches into the community to develop partnerships and positive relationships.…

    Todd Whitaker provides techniques for principals to evaluate their personal leadership style against highly effective principals in his book, What Great Principals Do Differently. Dr. Todd Whitaker states that this book is about what great principals do that sets them apart. Clarifying what the best leaders do, and then practicing it ourselves, can move us into their ranks (Whitaker, 2009). The goal of a great leader is to help teachers understand and improve their practices and to gauge the effectiveness of their instruction. Educational leadership is constructed with knowledge acquired from many sources, and self-evaluation and experience help solidify leadership.…

    My responsibility for this workshop was to proceed with a handover of a patient to an intern (played by Dr. Michael Adamson). This was a particularly disasterous session. My performance was not only unfit within the scope of academic criteria, but was clearly short of acceptable for a real-world SBAR. During the reading of the scenario I was daunted by the task of having to SBAR report a patient to admission at a hostpital, based on information I was reading for the first time; my practice with the hand-over system was minimal prior to the session.…

    In the movie Lean on Me, Joe Clark persuades the staff and students that hard work is necessary in order to be successful through the use of pathos, logos and ethos. One of the successful ways that he persuades them is using pathos, he appeals to their emotion. First, he calls 100 students on to the stage and kicks them out because they were a threat to the other students. It might make students upset but it send a message that need to be made. This is effective method because he shows his new acquired power and this depicts anger in the students and confusion so they will pay attention and listen.…

    Today at Simulation Lab I performed health history on a patient. Firstly, I commenced by preparing myself for the interview.

In addition to preparing myself, I prepared the environment, making sure seating and arrangement was in place and the room was comfortable and private. Having done this, I utilized Florence Nightingale’s theory of environmental need.…

    My experience in the passport project has shaped my understanding of learning and creativity by helping me to have insight into myself and my learning, to learn to overcome challenges, to set goals to reach certain targets, to think ahead to the future, to research efficiently and to find people and artists that inspire me. All of these things have greatly benefited me over the term and a bit that we completed our project because of the impacts that it has on me in my everyday life. I am finding that I am becoming more organised and willing to learn on my own accord rather than by being told exactly what to do by a teacher because of this project because I feel like I have been trusted to work well and responsibly. I enjoy this style of learning immensely because it gives me the freedom to work in a way that suites me whilst helping to shape my understanding of learning and creativity. Over the duration of our project, I have gradually gained more of an insight into myself and my learning.…

    I can empathize with teachers who say that the observation and evaluation process does not seem reciprocal in nature. Most of my follow-up evaluations have either been waived or conducted in five minutes or less in which the principal hits upon the highlights of my observation. Very few teaching lessons have been learned through these interactions. In her article though, Shelly Arneson includes sound practices that can be implemented to alleviate many of the concerns of the evaluation process. Her basic premise is to shift the dialogue from inspection-based conversation to a reflection-based conversation.…

    The final step of this principle is to explain why you are special and different from others. The third principle is to set a time frame for the goal to be achieved. This goal, being a more complex goal, should have a time frame between ten and thirty years (Carpenter, Bauer, Erdogan, & Short, 2014). Principle four is when you start to put the goal together. The goal should be “clear, compelling, and easy to grasp” (Carpenter, Bauer, Erdogan, & Short, 2014).…
