assume you are the principal of a school. In your initial post: Describe how you would effectively allocate resources to meet goals by effectively implementing strategies and professional learning. Who would you involve? What roles would they play? Describe the role and responsibilities you would expect from the central office. What other key stakeholders would you involve, and in what capacity? What would be the expected outcome?
Write a research paper that analyzes methods used to ethically manage teams and groups within organizations. In your research paper, be sure to include the following elements: Distinguish between a group and a team. Discuss ethical decision-making in team leadership that promotes social responsibility. Discuss leadership styles and traits that are effective for successful management of groups and teams. Include a discussion on any aspect of leadership covered in the course that was of particular interest to you. All topics do not need to be included; yet, followership, ethics, leadership styles, multicultural leadership, and conflicts of interest are all topics that have been studied, and any one (or more) that you found particularly interesting could be incorporated into the discussion.
What do you think is most important to consider when crafting effective messages: audience analysis, researching the subject, or communication organization? Why? Is social media use imperative to deliver messages to a certain audience?
The path from Medieval/Byzantine art to the Renaissance can be illustrated in the changing renditions/transformation of the Virgin and Child. Chose the Byzantine icon of the Madonna and Child on a Curved Throne from lecture 15 and show the changes that occurred and lead to Fra Filippo Lippi’s Madonna with Child (Tarquinia Madonna) of 1437 as described in lecture 16. How does the art of this time echo human experience? In your answer include Cimabue’s Madonna of the Holy Trinity, Duccio’s Maestà, and Giotto’s Virgin and Child as transformations of a pervasive and powerful theme (a continuity) in Western art. Do this using ONLY the examples that Soltes discusses and explains in his lectures.
