Action Planning and Professional Growth

During the 4th week of my Leadership for Accoutnability class, the assignments included creating a campus action plan and completing an agenda for one professional development day.  Both assignments gave me perspective on what will be expected of me as a principal. 

The campus action plan required a S.M.A.R.T. goal and S.M.A.R.T. objective, identifying the target group(s), three activities/strategies, person(s) responsible, timeline, resources needed, estimated cost, and formative evaluations.

The professional development agenda required an action goal and objective, topic, subtopic, grade level, faciliator(s), location, start and stop times, 9 strategies/activities and within them the purpose, description, steps, and estimated time was explained.

I like that these assignments are broken down into parts.  I will use this as a guideline to set up staff development trainings when I become a principal.  This week's assignments focused on my campus needs and I found it to be very relevant to the future goals of my campus.
