Week #2 - Essential Question Reflection

Following each class meeting, students will reflect upon an essential question related to our work and discussion. The reflection question will provide students with an opportunity to synthesize keys ideas discussed in class, offer a personal connection or reaction, and identify the relevance for school leaders. Each response should be approximately two paragraphs in length and include specific references to information from class and/or the readings. Students should be sure to use appropriate conventions, grammar, and spelling. Posts should be made prior to the next week's class session. Each post will be worth ten points.


Read the article entitled "How Does A School Go From Good to Great" by John Falino. Of the suggestions listed, identify the strategy that you believe to be the most powerful and significant. Explain why. Identify an example of how this practice was or was not in place in a school where you have worked.
