The format of courses in the Principal Licensure Program engages the student in electronic communication and research, thus immersing the student in learning experiences that are applicable to the future role of the school principal.
Topics relate to the course conceptual model.
The Position Paper is a traditional graduate level paper of five to seven pages in length. The Position Paper will be graded both on content and mechanics of writing. The Project Presentation is a simulation of the student acting as a school principal who is presenting a problem-based proposal to a group of faculty members or a Board of Education. The Project Presentation will be graded on the quality of research, preparation, and presentation. The student reads material posted by the practitioner on the Internet prior to attending the seminar.
