Got Missing Work?  If you are behind, you need to make a plan and catch up. Go to your grade book and make a list of your missing assignments.  Divide the number of assignments you have by the number of days left in the course -- that number represents how many assignments you should be doing each day IN ADDITION TO your required work for the week. Remember to use the old announcements to help you with completing your work.
Final Exam Activities  Your final exam activities are weighted equally and together count as 20% of your final grade.  Here is an overview of your 3 final exam activities:
  • Leadership CV/Cover Letter - you will use what you have learned as well as the work you have completed in the course to create YOUR own leadership CV (curriculum vitae). Your leadership CV (a detailed resume) will include your current leadership goals, skills, positions, mission, etc. and will also include at least 3 work samples from your Leadership Development coursework. There are detailed directions as well as a detailed rubric in the assignment to help you:)   Use the template to PLAN your CV and then create your CV using an application of your choice (Word, Google, Canva, etc.).  Once your CV is complete, write a cover letter that meets the assignment requirements.  **You have written a resume as well as a cover letter in our course before...now you are creating for YOU!
  • Empowering Others Discussion Board - you will share your philosophy, your progress, and your fears with your classmates one last time and send them off feeling empowered. Be sure to use your leadership skills to create an awesome post and to craft quality replies to at least 3 of your classmates. There are detailed directions as well as a detailed rubric in the assignment to help you:)   
  • Final Exam Multiple Choice Assessment - You will showcase your content knowledge by taking a traditional final exam. It has 50 questions (a mixture of true/false and multiple choice). You will have ONE attempt at this exam.
To prepare for the leadership CV/cover letter and discussion board, do the following:
  • Go back to Modules 1 and 2 - review your assignments and look at where you started.  
  • Then go through the course and choose your favorite assignments and/or the assignments that show your growth.
  • Think about the kind of leaders you have met this semester - which ones do you want to model?  Review those leaders in the lessons in which you studied them.
To review the lessons and prepare for your final exam multiple choice assessment, you can do the following:
  • Go back through each module and re-read Lesson 1 and Lesson 2 notes for each module.
  • Review Tuesday and Friday announcements to see the overview of each module posted.  It is the same information as the lesson notes but in a different format.
Final Exam Activities open January 8th.  You got this!

Today's Assignments:
  • Module 13 Lesson 1 Notes and CYK
  • Module 13 Lesson 1 Practice
Module 13 Lesson 1 Notes and CYK  
Module 13 Lesson 1 is North Carolina State Leadership. Do you know any past state leaders in NC? Do you know the names of your state representatives? Your justices? Your governor? This lesson looks at leadership in NC. When you complete your CYK, be sure you screenshot enough information to identify which quiz you are taking.
Module 13 Lesson 1 Practice
This assignment begins with researching your state leaders. Be sure you are finding state leaders and not national leaders who represent your state (hint: Richard Burr is a US Senator who represents NC but he is not an NC State Legislator in the NC Senate). Then use what you have learned about state leadership as well as leadership, in general, to reply to a quote as if you are a state leader. Be sure your reflection identifies and explains why you choose to be a representative/senator, justice, or governor. Use information from the lesson to show you understand what you learned about state positions. Then apply your leadership skills to the Dorothea Dix quotation. Remember that your reflection will help you prepare for tomorrow's assignment - thinking like a state leader will help you become a state activist.
