Happy Wednesday, leaders!  Week 4 continues.  Module 7 is due today.  Module 8 begins today and is due Friday.  If you follow my suggestions, you will be done with Week 4 tomorrow!
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.

Today's Assignments:
  • Module 8 Pre-Assessment
  • Module 8 Lesson 1 Notes - Check Your Knowledge
  • Module 8 Lesson 1 Practice Activity - Global Leader Research
Module 8 Pre-AssessmentTake a few minutes to complete the pre-assessment so that you connect to prior knowledge and get an idea of what content the module will include.
Module 8 Lesson 1 Notes & CYK
Lesson 1 is Global Political Leaders.  You will learn about leadership topics by studying a specific model leader.  Here are the lesson topics:  Political Leadership through War: Churchill,  Political Leadership through Economic Crisis: Merkel, Political Leadership through Terrorism:  Hollande, Political Leader through the Years: the Queen, Political Leaders through Social Injustice: Mandela, Social Activist: Yousafzai, Civil Disobedience: Gandhi, Reformer: Wilburforce.  Thank you for posting a screenshot of your results that includes enough information to identify which quiz you took. 
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 for 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 (or any reliable sources you know) and complete the template about that individual's political leadership.  As you complete the template, offer complete answers that use details from the notes as well as from your research.  Remember your goal is to show you understand the content.  Be sure to cite your resources - go to http://www.citationmachine.net/mla/cite-a-website for easy to follow instructions for creating a citation for online source material.  As always, look at the rubric before you begin the assignment so you are clear about how you will be graded.
