Before beginning participation in the Study Group Discussion Forum, write an initial reflection in the PLDL detailing what you consider your greatest leadership development needs and what opportunities to exercise leadership you will take advantage of to put into practice knowledge and skills that you are learning about during the Study Group.

Write personal, initial responses to the Discussion Topics for each Unit (a total of 11 personal responses throughout the Study Group) in the Facebook Study Group Forum during the 6-day period designated for each Discussion Topic; each personal response must be included in the PLDL submitted at the end of the Study Group

o Personal responses should be detailed, and may contain opinions or insights or observations about the Discussion Topic prompt and the readings

o Unfortunately, Facebook does not operate like the threaded discussions you may have seen or been a part of in online courses. You will have to post your comments and questions to others at the end of all the Discussion Topic posts, and indicate to whom you are posting your comments and questions by beginning your post with their Facebook Name

o we are looking for MORE than one word comments like “yes” or “no” or “maybe,” and MORE than very basic contributions like “I agree with what you wrote”

Monitor the Discussion Topics for each unit and acknowledge comments and questions raised about your personal responses by posting your thoughts about the comments and questions

a final reflection detailing such things as favorite readings and why, most valuable unit and why, greatest advancement of knowledge/skill
