Learning Leadership Skills in Elementary School
Bowman Richard F
Abstract:Leadership is everyone's responsibility—even first graders. The most important contribution that any educator can make in an era of unrelenting change is identifying and developing aspiring leaders. Elementary school teachers can embed leadership development opportunities into the classroom to foster leadership dispositions and skills grounded in the spirit to include, the passion to serve, the courage to question, and the discipline to listen. Four leadership dispositions illustrate a framework for identifying and developing aspiring elementary school leaders.
Keywords:21st century skills; elementary education; inclusive education; leadership
总结:
1、领导是每个人的责任,甚至对于一年级的学生来说。任何教育工作者都能在无情的时代变化中作出的最重要贡献在于识别和发展有抱负的领导者。
2、为了培养领导的性格和能力,小学教师可以将领导发展机会带进教室。这种能力包括服务精神、提问的勇气以及倾听的规范。并且有四种领导性格可以表明一个可以用来识别和发展有抱负的小学领导者的框架。
