Module 8 Day 1 - Monday, October 16

Module 8 begins today and is due this Friday.
Here are a few reminders about your work...

• Remember that your activities ask you to discuss your life as well as to make real-world connections.  Be sure that you concentrate on the leadership elements of your life and the real world -- no matter the activity and assignment, leadership should be your focus. Connect your ideas to your leadership journey using what you are learning in the particular module.  For example, Module 7 was about making decisions as a leader.  If you chose to do your flowchart about your college choices, you should relate those choices to your leadership journey and not just to your life journey.
• Please connect your activities and assignments to the content. Refer to the vocabulary as well as to the concepts from the notes.  For example, many of you used the visual from the assignment to create your Module 7 flowchart and you did a great job doing so.  To make sure your understanding of the content is clear, you could expand on that flowchart and add the elements you learned in the notes.

Module 8 Lesson 1 Notes & CYK
Thank you for posting a screenshot of your results. If the quiz does not work, please let me know.
Module 8 Lesson 1 Practice Activity
Module 8 Lesson 1 introduces you to Global Political Leaders like Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandela, and Mahatma Gandhi.  Each leader you will learn about is known for a particular political leadership; for example, Nelson Mandela is known Social Activism. You will meet some less known figures like William Wilburforce as well as some like Malala Yousafzai that work in different ways to lead politically.  For the Practice Activity, research one of these individuals using the recommended resources and complete the template about that individual's political leadership.  Be sure to cite your resources. As always, look at the rubric before you begin the assignment so you are clear about how you will be graded.
