    In speaking with Lee alumni from 1985, Lee University was known as Lee College and the codes of conduct were much more stringent under the guidelines of the Church of God. With the acceptance as a Federally funded university, Lee had to conform to the requirements held by the State of Tennessee. This was done after much prayer and decision making, yet by adopting the current policies, Lee could further the spreading of the gospel. Back then, there was mandatory dress codes, zero tolerance for unchristian behavior, and an underlying fear amongst all students that these behaviors would be severely dealt with.…

    Although there are many problems in this case, the main problem is lack of student learning, which needs to be the top priority of a free and appropriate public education, aside from safety, which is always at the forefront. As the principal, I need to reflect on my last 2 years of making an attempt to develop positive and trusting relationships, and my own growth as an educational leader. The problem here is that Principal Hulbert is still at a Level 1 leadership role; where people follow you simply because of your title. This was demonstrated when Bill Osborne, the employee spokesperson, told the principal, “You are the boss and you can force us to revise the lesson plans. Just tell us what you want in the lesson plans, we’ll copy it, and we can go on to more important issues,” (Kowalski, 2012, p.5).…

    While observing in Beth Johnston’s First Grade classroom at Eugene Field Elementary School, I have noticed some effective and ineffective classroom management practices that she uses while I have been in the classroom. One effective classroom management technique that I have observed is that Mrs. Johnston puts her student’s desks into groups of three or four. This is an effective technique because she puts her strong students with her not as strong students, which can help with the students who might need a little help staying on track with the lesson that they are supposed to get done. Also, Mrs. Johnston has changed the groups a couple of times since I have been observing in the classroom. This I believe is effective because the students…

    Analyzing the ethical case between Ms. Smith and Wesley helped me gain awareness of ethical dimensions and practices.

The dilemma arises when Ms. Smith has to determine whether to follow the zero-tolerance policy or report her phone missing to higher authority. Principles of the dilemma compete because of the values at stake, and Ms. Smith has to determine her line of action to prioritize her student over herself.…
