Final Portfolio Letter Directions

deborahbrown1 — Thu, 14 May 2009 08:22:59 CDT

Mrs. Brown Leadership 180

Directions for Final Portfolio Letters

1. Your Introduction Letter may take one of three formats

2. Suggested length is 4-6 paragraphs

3. You may refer to any project or experience from the entire class, however, please only reference chapters 6-12 for this section of your portfolio

4. Each option has several suggestions for topics you might address.

5. You may also talk about other topics, projects, ideas, or personal anecdotes beyond the suggestions for each letter type.

6. Your letters will be delivered! Make them polished and representative of your best work.

7. Be specific and descriptive vs. vague and cliché

Bad Example: “the organizational chapter helped me do better in school.”

Better Ex: “Instead of complaining about how hard a certain teacher was being on me, I looked at my calendar and scheduled a time to review my notes and to see the teacher for extra help. I used the time chart to analyze how I was spending my day and decided to watch 20 min less of TV and instead use that time at night to review for bedtime.”

CHOICE ONE:
Write a persuasive letter to Mrs. Wright and the WCPSS School Board that defends this program. As you know, we are facing severe budget cuts and a hiring freeze; why should the school pull a teacher from a core class in order to facilitate a section of 180°? You must state what has been valuable to you and what impact and benefits this program might continue to have for individuals and for the whole school. Suggestions:

For evidence, you will describe how this class has impacted you personally
What have you learned about yourself? What have you learned about other people?
What skills or concepts, chapter by chapter, have you been able to apply to solve or improve real problems in your own life, in the school, or in the larger or even global community?
What connections were you able to make with other people, and why are those connections important to you?
What real changes can you point to in yourself or in our school, and what was it specifically from the course that helped you make those changes?

CHOICE TWO:
Write a job application to Dr. & Mrs. Edwards to be a 180° leader and consultant for next year. They have stressed that they are looking for students to serve as consultants, writers, and presenters for future schools and facilitator training.

Explain chapter by chapter 96-12) what skills you have learned
Describe some ways you see yourself applying those skills in the future—what can you now offer as a leader that you might not have been able to offer on Jan, 5th?
Describe positive impacts and changes you have been able to make in your life, in your school and in the global community. Be specific! In this section you could tell personal stories and specific changes you have been able to make. What was it from the 180 experience that allowed you to make those changes?

Ex: “Because of the section on communication, I was able to see how my body language made people think I was mean and negative. Now I try to sit with my arms more open and lean forward, and I am able to have less conflict when I talk with my mom.”
Or: “I was able to apply the idea of a SMART goal to plan a successful booth during Leadership Week.”

Describe what you see as the most valuable items to pass on to new students and the ideas/activities that you would cut.
Explain what structures in the course were effective for you and why.
As a 180° student facilitator, what would you do to make the experience as effective as possible?

CHOICE THREE:
Write a letter to the next student who will sit in your chair as a 180° team member in just a few months.

Chapter by chapter (6-12), tell them what skills or activities were most valuable to you
What were the most effective things you did as a member of the 180° team in helping you grow/develop those specific leadership skills?
Looking back over the projects you attempted, what advice do you have for being successful, based on the skills from 180°? What would you do differently and what worked in your committees?
Look at the arc of your own journey. What can you tell them to expect in terms of growth, challenges, and successes?

Adopt a Hallway

nmandavilli — Wed, 13 May 2009 07:55:50 CDT

Project Title: “Adopt a Hallway”
Status (facilitator will change): DRAFT FORM, PROPOSAL- Waiting for approval, APPROVED- Seeking committee members, APPROVED- Committee in progress, RETURNED FOR REVISION, NOT APPROVED

Your Name: Monserrat Alvarez, Neel Mandavilli, Beatrice Paneto, Dylan Enright, Dakota Barnhardt,
Richard Adebari, Kenny Mahavik, & Tre Warren.

Project Description:
Following the concept of “Adopt a Highway”, Southeast clubs and organizations may take the responsibility of cleaning their hallway. Each club or organization will be take ownership of their chosen hallway and clear it after SMART Lunch. Each Club will be able to post information related to their club activities, as well as a professional sign stating they adopted that hallway.

Project Rationale:
The “Adopt a Hallway” proposal will benefit the school’s image and create cleaner learning environment. Studies have shown that a cleaner learning environment will result in higher attentiveness levels in students. This proposed project would help SMART Lunch radiate a positive atmosphere which will enable students to better effect the community. The entire school community will benefit from this project, as it affects everyone.

Resources Needed:

Max. of:10
Responsibility, Dedication, and good communication skills.
Classroom with computers.
Art supplies and posters.

Project Timeline/Calendar:
An ongoing assignment that will extend into the developmental process of SMART lunch. Clubs will sign up at the beginning, but it will take time for every hallway to be occupied by a club. This project will develop as SMART lunch continues throughout the year. No target date has been created, but we will attempt to sign up organizations before the beginning of SMART lunch.

Reflection:
This committee was a step towards cleaning our school, and making our school a more inclusive enviroment. Throughout our development we have encountered many challenges, as well as problems to be overcome. One re-occuring problem seemed to be communication. It was difficult to communicate with clubs as to what information they needed to submit if they wanted to adopt a hallway. It appeared that email is not the most promising mode of communication when people don't check their emails. Therefore, in the future, we will meet directly or call people to give them information.

Wrapping It All Up

deborahbrown1 — Tue, 12 May 2009 22:25:29 CDT

Favorite quotes from the workbook
Favorite activities/pages/chapters from the workbook

Read and explore some of the things we didn’t have time for in class. Maybe move away from the computers and find some quiet place in the library. Make it a gift to yourself to have some private, undirected time to consider the ideas and write down some of your thoughts today. (Thanks, Jessica, for the suggestion!)
Look through the quotes at the back of the book. Circle/highlight/ etc any that really resonate with you.
Pick a time in the future: one year from now, five years, ten, etc. Write a note to future self.

Teacher Evaluations

cnlouder — Fri, 08 May 2009 13:13:57 CDT

Project Title: Teacher Evaluations
Status: DRAFT FORM, PROPOSAL- Waiting for approval, APPROVED- Seeking committee members, APPROVED- Committee in progress, RETURNED FOR REVISION, NOT APPROVED
Project Manager: Lance
Committee Members: Cee Cee, Corey, others?
Click here to download Project proposal

UPDATE: Unfortunately, we will not be able to develop the website in time for this semester's students to partcipate in teacher evaluations. Therefore, we will provide each participating teacher with slips of paper with the evaluation criteria listed below on it. The website should be working by the fall semester of the 2009-2010 school year. Hopefully, more teachers will participate in the teacher evaluations.

Justification: Schools are a place for learning. Teachers encourage their students and strive to help them prepare for the future. Here at Southeast Raleigh High School, we are continually trying to grow and prepare our students to become an asset to society. Since students are continuously evolving into better people, our teachers should be willing to do the same. Teacher evaluations, with the criteria we have come up with, will improve and effectively change teacher’s teaching styles with constructive criticism from students. Not only will these evaluations provide students with a larger voice in the classroom, they will also contribute to improving other factors. In too many situations, students do not tell teachers what assignments, lessons, and methods they struggle with. Evaluations will provide teachers with what they need to work on and what they need to keep doing. Grades will also improve due to these teacher evaluations. Usually, when students have a teacher who teaches in an exciting and relative manner it is much easier for that student to learn. Also, in no way are these evaluations directed to take a teacher's job or put a teacher's job in danger. The evaluations will shared with that teacher and no one else, and the students who fill these out will be anonymous. The positives of this proposal have the potential to make Southeast Raleigh an even better learning environment.

Criteria Template as of 3/4/2009:

Criteria	Demonstrates Effectively	Demonstrates Well	Adequately Demonstrates Skill	Could Improve Skill	Needs to Improve

4th Period Calendar

andersonmn — Thu, 30 Apr 2009 18:37:29 CDT

This page is our virtual calendar listing when team members are presenting, important dates, and a glance at what we are learning through the semester. My hope is that it will be a framework for my 4th period team, a tool for collaboration between the 1st period team (facilitated by D. Brown), and a useful resource for future facilitators. It is not meant to be the only way to teach 180 nor a plan carved in stone that I plan to follow. It is a work in progress. I've listed the facilitators for the day (LLL) in green and the student-led activities in red. Any link to another page will be in blue. Michelle Harrell

Honor Marshals

cnlouder — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 13:18:14 CDT

UPDATE: Mrs. Stover informed me that Honor Marshals for the rest of this year has been determined. Mrs. Martin and Mrs. Davis are going to advise the club. The club will work differently this year, however. Mrs. Stover informed me that they will select the top 25-30 ranking juniors and ask them to be Honor Marshals at the remaining school events this year such as graduation and the Senior Award Ceremony. I informed Mrs. Martin that two other teachers, Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Goddard, are both willing to assist in the regeneration of this club. I hope that the club will not be restricted to top ranking juniors in the future, but I have to speak with the current advisors and Mrs. Wright about this possibility.

180° Leadership Project Proposal

Project Title: Honor Marshals
Your Name: Ceewin Louder

Project Description and Rationale:I would like to regenerate the Honor Marshals program here at Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School. I believe that we, as Honor Marshals, contributed a great deal last year to the success of many school-held functions. Due to Mrs. Brown's retirement last year, the club has not been structured. My proposal involves starting up Honor Marshals again in time to help with the Spring Club Fair, Graduation, and other school held activities for the rest of this year and next year. A few of our events include Graduation, Open House, Club Fair, etc.

Project Rationale: I would like to regenerate the Honor Marshals program here at Southeast Raleigh Magnet High School. I believe that we, as Honor Marshals, contributed a great deal last year to the success of many school-held functions. Due to Mrs. Brown's retirement last year, the club has not been structured. My proposal involves starting up Honor Marshals again in time to help with the Spring Club Fair, Graduation, and other school held activities for the rest of this year and next year. Starting this club again would help out the teachers who are left with the task of finding docents for each separate school function.

Resources Needed: I need a diverse group of students who are interested in becoming Honor Marshals as well as interested in helping this club come alive again. You have to be supportive of our school and able to shine a positive light on SRMHS.

Project Timeline/Calendar: I would hope this wouldn't take longer that a couple weeks. I have spoke with many former Honor Marshals and they would love to join the club again.
