It sort of reviewed the "basics" to communication which I think is so important. Nonverbal communication is often forgotten about when it gives such clarity to what people are really thinking. I find myself sometimes slouched over and do not notice until my students ask if I feel okay. These subtle little things actually say a lot to the people around us. And as future leaders, we must be even more aware to what vibe we portray to others. Thanks for sharing!

Communication is key in getting items completed and further more enhancing things already in place. Interesting how listening is a skill that leaders should have obtained, there are many instances where those in a position of power only speak at others and never listen. While expressing your thoughts to others is a good concept, listening and truly understanding others is just as important. Effective leaders know how to address a situation and listen to the needs of their people. "Great communicators are made, not born", this tells us that there is room for improvement. Every leader has the chance to become a great communicator.

I knew some of the aspects of the ESSA law, but sadly not as much as I should know due to being out of the education field for 10 years. This article was uplifting to read. For many years, I have heard the phrase that hands are tied and changes are not possible due to the government. I have also heard that the government makes all these decisions without understanding the educators and students that the laws and policies affect. I have been learning and reading been changes that are being made in the education system to improve student learning. I am excited to read that the government is making the same changes to improve education. It is very important for all stakeholders to be involved in the legal processes as laws and policies are made concerning education. With a full committee discussing the concerns, resources, and legal aspects all viewpoints are taken into consideration to make the best decisions for the students. I agree that local school districts need the authority to make changes and improvements that directly benefit their district students and employees. Every school district has its own challenges to overcome and unique needs for their students. This law helps all schools provide a better learning environment for all students across the nation. Another important aspect from this article was trying to ensure that poverty schools have the same resources and highly-qualified educators as the richer school districts. Since I have been in both types of schools, I have learned that there is a very distinct difference in the schools and the graduates from each school.  If we truly want to help the poverty students have better chances to securing a job to be a productive citizen, they need the same education and experiences to compete in the job market. After reading this article, I know I need to educate myself more on the ESSA law.

Level 5 leaders are the most effective leaders who mix both their emotions and their will to be successful. These two traits allow good leaders to become great leaders. I have had leaders who are driven to be successful and I have had some who lead with their emotions. All of these leaders were good at their jobs, but were not great leaders and tended to have a large amount of dissension in the ranks.  I believe if we ever had a administrator that truly combined these two traits then we would have less turnover and more successful students. ]]> 2018-07-24 00:49:30 UTC https://padlet.com/tjm10a/j4m5zr3yfdqx/wish/270916454 jpruiett2 https://padlet.com/tjm10a/j4m5zr3yfdqx/wish/270917589 Tyler, the article you shared on communication and leadership is dead on correct. Great leaders are also great communicators. Communication in this day and age is different than just being able to speak effectively, it is also reading the room, listening and responding effectively as well. I personally plan out my conversations prior to having them (even though it makes me feel a little nuts sometimes). This prework allows me to have some sort of idea of where the conversation will go and how to respond to questions and concerns. Administrators need to use all these tools to become effective communicators. If they cannot effectively communicate with their staff, then the educational systems as a whole suffers. Thank you for posting this article. ]]> 2018-07-24 01:00:34 UTC https://padlet.com/tjm10a/j4m5zr3yfdqx/wish/270917589 tgriffin121 https://padlet.com/tjm10a/j4m5zr3yfdqx/wish/271012988
Tyler, I think your article was spot on as it relates to communication skills. It made me think about the importance of communicating even when you are not speaking. The ability to control your non verbals and respond to the non verbals of your audience speaks to your self awareness and the awareness of those in which you lead. Reading through this article also reminded me of communication builds trust in a facets. Trust a one of the most important factors in leadership and communication can you build that early on as a novice leader.]]> 2018-07-24 20:07:29 UTC https://padlet.com/tjm10a/j4m5zr3yfdqx/wish/271012988
