Creating Constructive Criteria: Evaluating The Perceived Usefulness Of Eportfolios To Support Different User Needs, Roisin Donnelly, Jen Harvey, K.C. O'Rourke Jan 2008

Creating Constructive Criteria: Evaluating The Perceived Usefulness Of Eportfolios To Support Different User Needs, Roisin Donnelly, Jen Harvey, K.C. O'Rourke

Papers, presentations and other resources

The use of Portfolios and ePortfolios in HE signifies a potential move towards a self-directed, student centred approach to learning and assessment through processes such as personal development planning, reflection and negotiation of evidence of learning. New and emergent technologies can now provide a diverse range of opportunities to represent, store and present different kinds of knowledge within a dynamic multimedia environment. Whilst many institutions place value upon the concepts underpinning the use of ePortfolios, there has, in the past, been reluctance to engage with ePortfolio systems for both technical and economic reasons. A key challenge for institutions is the …

Designing And Implementing A Competency-Based Curriculum: Leadership Implications, Ralitsa Akins, Oscar Ingaramo, Maia Eppler, Gilbert Handal Jan 2008

Designing And Implementing A Competency-Based Curriculum: Leadership Implications, Ralitsa Akins, Oscar Ingaramo, Maia Eppler, Gilbert Handal

Academic Leadership: The Online Journal (2003-2012)

Choices in leadership decision-making reflect forces stemming from the leader, the environment and the group, where the quality of the decision and its acceptance are at stake (Yukl 1981). In academic institutions, establishing a supportive learning environment is not sufficient for achieving desired changes; implementing and sustaining the leader’s vision becomes absolutely necessary (Stinson, Pearson, and Lucas 2006).


Meeting The Challenge Of A Janus Job, Patricia Phelps Jan 2008

Meeting The Challenge Of A Janus Job, Patricia Phelps

Academic Leadership: The Online Journal (2003-2012)

No one becomes an academic department chair in higher education without first having been a faculty member. After eighteen years as a faculty member at the same university, I was named interim department chair in 2005. With this administrative appointment came the assumption of what I perceived as a Janus job. In Roman mythology, Janus was the god associated with doorways and gates. He was frequently portrayed with two faces–one looking forward and one looking backward. Rather than being viewed as two-faced, Janus is more accurately described as vigilant. This image seems to fit aptly the role of academic department …


A Consideration Of The Influences That Predict Middle School Principal Attitudes, Edward Cod, Jesse Washington Jan 2008

A Consideration Of The Influences That Predict Middle School Principal Attitudes, Edward Cod, Jesse Washington

Academic Leadership: The Online Journal (2003-2012)

Today’s successful school systems have certainly evolved into “heroic learning organizations” (Brown & Moffett, 1999). Competing for such prestigious titles as National Blue Ribbon Schools and Carolina First Palmetto’s Finest Award Schools, additional pressures are placed on everyone involved. The person held most accountable for problem solving is the principal. Two of the most prominent pressures are the challenges of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) and schools meeting Annual Yearly Progress (AYP) requirements for all students. As the instructional leader, the principal influences every aspect of the school and each of its participants. In the process he or she becomes …


Some Entrepreneurship Pitfalls, Philip Wolitzer Jan 2008

Some Entrepreneurship Pitfalls, Philip Wolitzer

New England Journal of Entrepreneurship

All of us have at some point thought how great it would be to be the boss of our own destiny and build a new business. For some it’s a dream that won’t stop until we try. In the old days, all it would have taken was two months’ rent after we built our leasehold improvements. Oh, how times have changed.
