Week 3 Web conference

Tonight the web conference was mostly to share our action research, successes, struggles, and concerns. Dr. Martin also talked about several types of research to give students options on what they could do. It was also requested to either edit or add during our discussion board posts more information about our action research.


We were also told what the ELCC is. It is the Educational Leadership Constituent Council that is made up of elementary and secondary principal national groups and national administration group. The council observes and accredits educational leadership programs on the University level.

Students who are concerned about taking the principal’s exam need to look for books by Dr. Cortez-Ruckers. Her information is very extensive.

Finally you need to make sure that you put the district name on the title page of your action research.

Questions were asked regarding the assignment. During the conference, Dr. Mason said that the PISE form does not have to be signed by your supervisor due to the difficulty some may have in making a connection with them.


It was stated that all students must score an 80% on the LCE before they can take the state exam. It was discussed how to prepare for the test. There is a section in the resource section in the form of a PowerPoint that you can see. There is an admin Google site for more information. https://sites.google.com/site/luedlead/home .

Students shared leadership stories, observations and experiences.

First Web conference for EDLD 5370

Tonight on the web conference several items were clarified. Each person is required to make at least 8 changes to their intern plan or if you do not have that many changes then add a few additional items that you can do. Assignments to TK20 will start from it’s implementation and you will not have to go back to add assignments. Each student needs to make sure their supervisor fills out an evaluation form for their work so far. Additional questions were answered on a personal level such as can you switch supervisors, filing your intern plan, and other questions that were more personal in nature to a specific person.


Finally Dr. Martin stressed that they want you to learn as much as possible from your intern experience as possible to help you become a better employee no matter what that role may be. He also stated that getting a principal added certification is a bonus for any position you may hold.
