Reminder on uploading of assignments - a repost

'Quamplurimi et quam aptissimi" (As many as possible of the very best)

10 - 11 - 2015

A blessed Sunday greetings to you Leader Siarina:

I saw many assignments draft at the inbox of the website.  However they can not be published:

Why are the assignments unpublished?

1.  The authors are not identified. Please be sure to write your name separately on the title or in the body of your paper;

2.  The post say there are attachment.  Please copy paste your attachment in the body of the email.

3. You used the wrong email address;  sending to this email add will not do.

About the grades.

Paper that are published but with not grade could get 2 or 2.5.  Only 3 and up papers get a published grade.  You can opt to improve your grade prior to the final deadline by improving your paper.    A late paper gets a -1



Why is your grade 2 or 2.5.

1.  It lacked depth of reflection .  Take note that in the syllabus it says you are to be graded on your ability to reflect and be self aware You should be able to relate the assignment and locate/relate this in the totality of things (that which I write on the white board):  to the self, leadership journey, the things that shaped you as a person and leader, and your passion/answer to the call of leadership.

2. The reflection should cover these areas (as was written in the list of assignments:  (Many paper did not observe or did not contain, as labelled these contents.

       1.  What was the lesson/s learned?

       2. Relationship of this learning to to what you knew/learned:

             1. Readings from HBR, Lowney, CD readings, class discussion, your other lessons learned on leadership

             2.  To the first day debate;

             3.  Other readings, teachings from your parents, other profs, and your mentors.

        3. How will you further apply these learnings (#1)

You must develop the ability to discern, glean from your experiences, lessons that can help you become a better person  a a leader.  Much can be learned from our day to day common experiences, as we pause and reflect

When you go back to your respective offices, many times you will have to decide/make judgement calls (or would you often consult or wait for your senior to decide)  You can only do that if you developed the habit of reflection as prescribed in this class, You can only grow as a person and/or a leader if you practice this well under a motivational situation (ie being graded)

PLEASE DO THIS WELL LEADERS


N.B.

1.  Despite this post and email, many still insist of emailing with attachment;  it is a waste of time keeping on doing the wrong things;

2.  Only the learning agreement is to be submitted in hard copy (printed)   We will submit our assignment electronically, ie by uploading via email to the blogger site, to save paper, to archive the assignment systematically, and to facilitate search and grading.

3.  As they say, when the paper is long, it is presumed to have has  and gets higher grade. (but not always)

4.  Only published directions are to be observed;   let us not be confused that there were other instructions

  1. Thank you Prof Jorge for the advise, in this way we may be able to meet the deadlines and the proper procedure so that our work compliance will be posted as well as food for thought in improving our work assignments.
