Students conduct interviews with people in the community to practice skills in questioning and listening. After a few weeks in the class, students begin to mentor younger students and learn first-hand about leadership roles. Unit two moves toward a more unified area of leadership. This section includes communication, listening skills and interviewing. The focus in this unit is on relationships and working with others.
Students learn to understand their best communication style and how to express it.
Students learn to organize and deliver presentations, and to evaluate each other. Finally, the third unit encompasses the community as a whole, teaching students about diversity, resolving conflict and conducting meetings. During the second semester of the class, most students develop a community-service project to test out the newly discovered qualities they possess. Field trips to businesses, government facilities help to show students the diversity in the community, and how critical issues are interrelated. The students exercised complete charge over the show and carried out everything themselves.
