Case+Study+1

Using the attached Scenario 13: Retaining the Studend Recognition Program, discuss the "Reflective Thinking and Scenario Analysis" questions. Then add your answers to the following questions...



What would you have done differently, as the building administrator? -- ask/survey students what they want or what we can do different -- all/majority of the staff involved vs. 5-15 teachers -- contact other schools with similar situations to get ideas --Student advisory group developed at the outset of the program to assist in monitoring the effectiveness yearly or every semester.

What is the underlying ethical dilemma? -- how do you move students from extrinsic to intrinsic motivation factors?

What values were demonstrated/employed in this situation? -- quality education -- recognition for good work -- student-focus -- collaboration/cooperation to facilitate staff ownership -- achievement

How would you push the leadership to a higher level of ethical behavior?

Reward with the intrinsic values you want students to have (reward increased reading with "read whatever book you want today" or choose the assignment you want to do today!)
