Q1: How would you define student leadership? #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:05 PM EST

@WMSPal Thanks for joining in! #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:06 PM EST

A1:Where Ss take a leadership role and follow and exceed our expectations. Other Ss see this and try to emulate #sdedchat

RT @mrstbauerly Q1 How would you define student leadership? #sdedchat

WMSPal Jan 12 @ 9:10 PM EST

Formal leadership as reps, captains, etc. Informal leadership in character and engagement in the learning process. #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:11 PM EST

A1: I think it is when Ss want to guide or direct change & events at their school w/ presenting, organizing, mentor roles #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:12 PM EST

Q2: What are examples of student leadership roles? #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:12 PM EST

I like the distinction between formal & informal. I was thinking along the lines of 'behind the scenes' #sdedchat https://t.co/VjCbuKm7vA

WMSPal Jan 12 @ 9:10 PM EST

A2: Student Council is a very popular example of student leadership. #sdedchat

RT @mrstbauerly Q2 What are examples of student leadership roles? #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:15 PM EST

A2:We have SL read the daily announcements and put out the flag each day. You could have classroom leaders, endless possibilities #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: Our new admin really looks to students for assembly planning, ideas, and organization #sdedchat

WMSPal Jan 12 @ 9:17 PM EST

A2: We have a class rep in each advisory to "personalize" representation & leadership. Over 50 in Student Council! #sdedchat

WMSPal Jan 12 @ 9:18 PM EST

A2: Anyone have students as part of interview/staffing process? #sdedchat

@WMSPal Great question! this is only my 5th year of teaching, I've never seen Ss on an interview process before #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:19 PM EST

Q3: Do ALL Ss have to be 'traditional' leaders to participate in student led initiatives or leadership programs? #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:19 PM EST

@WMSPal Last year we were looking at adding more tech devices for Ss so we invited 2 student leaders to our tech committee #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:21 PM EST

A3:No, they need to have some leadership skill that have been taught to them. With proper modeling, they can become leaders #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:22 PM EST

A3: I don't think so. I have some Ss that are part of our new tech squad & they are quiet and reserved, they will be great Ts tho #sdedchat

vrana_amy Jan 12 @ 9:22 PM EST

A2: Sometimes I'll have Ss lead activities. They're able to model expectations and procedures #sdedchat

Letting Ss lead in our classrooms shows students that we value them, they love to learn from their peers #sdedchat https://t.co/HZ1exrO2jj

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:25 PM EST

#sdedchat A2B: I think we have to find opportunities for all our Ss to have a leadership role, each Ss brings a unique talent set to school

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:26 PM EST

Q4: Why is it important for Ss to have leadership roles & opportunities? #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:26 PM EST

@MrStevenKerr I agree, but I think it has to be a capacity they are comfortable with. Some Ss are more quiet & reserved #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:27 PM EST

#sdedchat @mrstbauerly I agree, having tech in the classroom where Ss can share thoughts is a great way for the reserved Ss to shine

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:28 PM EST

A4: sometimes adults lose sight of what is truly importing in learning. When we have Ss as leaders they can guide our focus back #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:29 PM EST

#sdedchat A4:These are tools that they will need for the rest of their lives. They will be leaders in their jobs, families, and/or friends

lenessakeehn - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:29 PM EST

RT @mrstbauerly Q4 Why is it important for Ss to have leadership roles & opportunities? #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:29 PM EST

A4: Some issues Ss face on a day to day basis are unknown to their teachers, encouraging Ss as leaders lets them find solutions #sdedchat

vrana_amy Jan 12 @ 9:29 PM EST

A4: Ss can develop a voice and discover that their voice will be heard. They don't always get that at home. #sdedchat

WMSPal Jan 12 @ 9:30 PM EST

A4: If the adults do all of the leading, the school exists for teaching, not learning. #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:32 PM EST

YES, so much yes. #sdedchat https://t.co/HXFINFkZrY

Q5: How do we empower Ss to take initiative and create or participate in student led leadership programs? #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:34 PM EST

A5: Give opportunities within groups, having specific, rotating, roles for each S so that they can experience leadership #sdedchat

I like the idea of having specific rotating roles for Ss so they have the chance to explore leadership #sdedchat https://t.co/AWYOwDB7jv

A5: Give opportunities within groups, having specific, rotating, roles for each S so that they can experience leadership #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:36 PM EST

A5: We can guide/model what we want to a leader to be. Gives Ss a chance to excel pass what we expect of them #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:38 PM EST

A5: A way to start is by giving Ss voice & choice in class, Ts showing that they believe in Ss, following thru w/ Ss suggestions #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:39 PM EST

A5: Provide time in the day for Ss to openly communicate about their groups or projects within their leadership #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:40 PM EST

Q6: What leadership opportunities are currently available to your students? #sdedchat

MrStevenKerr Jan 12 @ 9:41 PM EST

A6:In class, multiple. At the school level we need to find more opportunities outside of athletics #sdedchat

mrstbauerly - Moderator Jan 12 @ 9:42 PM EST

A6: We have StuCo, Spartans4Spartans (mentoring prog), & tech squad. Within classes I'm not sure how many Ss have leadership roles #sdedchat

Q8: How do you model leadership to your students? #sdedchat
