Thirty-eight ILA members are currently working together to
develop guidelines for post-secondary leadership education programs.
Understanding there is a breadth of knowledge and experience within the ILA
membership, the LC is using a Wiki to collaboratively create an online handbook
of resources that will be useful for anyone starting, re-organizing or
evaluating a campus-based Leadership Education Program.
While this LC is new, the group has been working together for almost two years.
A Learning Lab held at the Chicago 2006 ILA conference focused on identifying
the questions essential to the development of leadership education programs at
postsecondary institutions. The team decided to become a formal Learning
Community with the goal of creating a handbook to address these questions.
The GLEP/LC Guidelines handbook will be organized into the following five
sections:
-
Conceptual Framework: Clearly identify a leadership
program’s conceptual framework, including underlying theories and
philosophy, mission statement, goals and learning objectives
-
Teaching and Learning: Address the who, what, when, where,
why, and how of teaching and learning
-
Context: Enable programs to understand the multiple sectors,
audiences and disciplines that teach and practice leadership, and how these
contexts affect the subject matter of the other sections in the guidelines
-
Content: Describe program content based on knowledge of the
field, contexts and conceptual frameworks
-
Outcomes and Assessment: Identify outcomes of the program
and appropriate processes for assessment
