Elements of Emotional Intelligence in Leadership |
To prepare for this discussion, read the assigned textbook chapters and the article, Emotional Intelligence. (Links to an external site.) Evaluate your level of emotional intelligence by completing the “Leader's Self-Insight 5.2” questionnaire in the textbook. Reflect on what the results suggest about you as a leader and what observations others might make of you that are in your blind spot. You are not required to share your specific results when discussing this activity, but are welcome to, if you are comfortable doing so.
To successfully complete this discussion, your post should minimally include the following:
· Identify a specific career or profession and evaluate which elements of emotional intelligence (EI) you consider most essential to be an effective leader in that chosen career or profession. Include specific examples from realistic work/professional scenarios demonstrating how those EI elements are necessary for leaders in that setting.
· Based on the information in the text discussing how emotions influence performance, create at least one example of how negative emotions influence work performance.
· Take the role of a leader in the industry/profession of your choice. You’ve assigned your employees/supervisees to work on projects in groups. One of the members of your team comes to you and asks to be reassigned because one of the members in their assigned group is “so negative, always complaining, and constantly oversharing about all of the drama in their personal lives.” Using either your own results from the “Leader's Self-Insight 5.2” questionnaire or those of a fictitious leader, formulate two brief scripts demonstrating how your chosen leader would respond to (1) the employee who requests reassignment and (2) the employee who was described as being negative.
· Support ideas you share in your post with a minimum of three credible scholarly and peer-reviewed sources (Links to an external site.) published within the last ten years and document your sources by including APA-formatted citations (Links to an external site.) and references (Links to an external site.) .
Post your initial response of 500 words or more by Day 3 (Thursday). Respond to at least two of your peers by Day 7 (Monday). Replies to your classmates’ initial postings should be a minimum of 250 words each.

edTPA Literacy Instruction Task 1 Assignment Instructions
edTPA Practice Task 1 PLANNING – ELE and Secondary “edTPA is a performance-based, subject-specific assessment and support system used by teacher preparation programs throughout the United States to emphasize, measure, and support the skills and knowledge that all teachers need from Day 1 in the classroom.”
http://www.edtpa.com/PageView.aspx?f=GEN_AboutEdTPA.html
As part of the teacher preparation program at Liberty University, the School of Education desires that all of our students build a strong understanding of research-based practices for use in the classroom. Many states across the US require students to complete and submit an edTPA portfolio as part of their licensure program. EdTPA programs focus on three main tasks:
· Task 1: PLANNING. Planning for Instruction and Assessment
· Task 2: INSTRUCTION. Instructing and Engaging Students in Learning
· Task 3: ASSESSMENT. Assessing Student Learning
For the purposes of this assignment, we will take a closer look at Task 1.
Procedures : *templates provided in LiveText
· Select a class and complete the Context for Learning * template.
· Prepare a learning segment of 3 consecutive lesson plans, using Lesson Plan *template - ELE -literacy (reading comprehension or writing composition only) lessons - Secondary –lessons in the content of your endorsement - SPE –see separate instructions
· Submit each lesson plan in Canvas and make revisions based on feedback.
· Respond to prompts in the Planning Commentary * template prior to teaching the learning segment.
· Teach one lesson in your field experience placement.
Context for Learning and Planning Commentary :
· Type your responses in the *templates between the brackets [ ] using Arial 11-point font. Single space with 1” margins on all sides.
· Incorporate formal language in complete sentences and paragraphs.
· Refer to Planning Commentary sample responses provided.
· Context for Learning - at least 3 pages, and must not exceed 4 pages including prompts.
· Planning Commentary- at least 6 pages, and must not exceed 9 pages including prompts.
· Respond to prompts prior to teaching the lesson.
Lessons Plans and materials :
· Type lesson plans in each section of Lesson Plan *template, using Arial 11-point font and single space with 1” margins on all sides.
· Submit 3 lesson plans in one file; no more than 4 pages per lesson.
· Within the file, label each lesson plan (Lesson 1, Lesson 2, etc.)
· Submit no more than 5 pages of KEY instructional materials per lesson plan.
· Submit all instructional materials (except assessments) in 1 file, labeled by lesson within the file (Lesson 1 Instructional Materials, etc.), in order of use.
· Submit assessments in 1 file (no page limit), labeled by lesson within the file (Lesson 1 Assessments, etc.), in order of use. For assessments that are not written work, please include the directions/prompts that will be given to students by the teacher.
In total, you will submit five different files for this assignment. Submit all five files in Canvas, as well as in LiveText.
Task 1: Part A: Context for Learning
Task 1: Part B: Lesson Plans for Learning Segment (all three lesson plans in one file)
Task 1: Part C: Instructional Materials
Task 1: Part D: Assessments
Task 1: Part E: Planning Commentary
