  In Roundtable Session: Powerful Instructional Approaches for Leadership Preparation and Development

Abstract

Recognizing that the graduate students within the principal certification program at a mid-Atlantic, mid-size public state system institution of higher education (IHE) needed a more robust experience with understanding their leadership role with technology, educational leadership faculty purposefully and intricately incorporated the International Society for Technology in Education standards for educational leaders (ISTE, 2020) within an existing course in the program. Students developed a podcast that incorporated the ISTE standards with a focus on equity and inclusion, the underpinning mission and vision of the leadership program at this IHE. Instructors worked with multiple groups of students and analyzed the qualitative data (communication logs, podcasts, and instructor reflections) to interpret the experiences and learning through qualitative methodology.
