Scholarly research reports can have profound impact on society. Thus far in this course we have been making the case that best practices are informed by the wise and judicious application of research findings to particular situations. Don’t miss the importance of adverbs “wise” and “judicious.” Plano-Clark and Creswell tell us that we should “read research to learn new knowledge about topics, to become informed on policy debates, and to find suggestions for improving your practice” (2010, p. 15). In unit 10 we will be bringing things to a close through several experiential learning activities.
Unit 10 is divided into 3 topics:
Topic 1: Issues of Credibility
Topic 2: Leadership Decisions Revisited
Topic 3: An Introduction to the Leadership Integration Project (LIP)
