【授業時間外(予習・復習等)の学修 / Study Required Outside of Class】

There is one major activity that will take place outside of class sessions. It is described below.

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN

Personal Development Program. Select one ICI competency that you want to improve (e.g., adaptability, valuing different perspectives, etc.). From START to END intensely study all you can about the competency, using both Internet and published resources. Based on your research, develop a concrete, daily personal development plan of how you can improve in this area. Submit a 1-page plan identifying your targeted competency and what you will do to develop it.

You will be required to implement this plan and report to Prof. Bird each week on Monday as to how effective you were in the implementation of your plan during the previous week. Email your plan as an attachment to Prof. Bird no later than 11:59pm on TBD, then begin implementing your plan on 3/11.

Weekly PDP Reports. Each student’s personal development plan will be unique to fit their own circumstances. The evaluation of the weekly PDP reports is designed to be personal and not competitive with others. Thus, students’ rate of progress will not be evaluated against or compared with other students’ outcomes on the weekly reports. This assignment is designed for you – and you only – to learn on your own how you can best develop inclusive competencies in your life. You cannot gain points by outperforming your peers; rather, you will be developing an inclusive competency that you want to develop. However, you can lose points on the Weekly PDP reports. Penalties will occur for:
• Turning in a weekly PDP report late (-0.25 points per day).
• Not turning in a weekly PDP report at all (-2.5 points)
• Not providing rigorous and reflective analysis within a weekly PDP report (range of -0.25 to -.75 points).

There is no reason to lose any points on this assignment – just write thoughtful weekly reports and turn them in on time.

Send your weekly reports to Prof. Bird via MS Teams on the date that each one is due. Your first report will be due on Monday, TBD These reports are due on each Monday before 11:59 pm) throughout the COURSE. The last report you will send in will be on Monday, TBD.

In these weekly reports feel free to update your plan for the upcoming week based upon your progress and experience in implementing your plan during the previous week. Structure your reports to reflect on the outcomes of your weekly efforts in implementing your personal development plan by addressing each of the following three items in your reports (use these as sub-headings):
1. What Happened A descriptive report of the outcomes associated with the implementation of your plan over the past week.
2. What I Learned Insights you gained from the outcomes you described in #1
3. What I Will Do What will your plan be for the upcoming week based on #1 & #2?

CLASS ENGAGEMENT (20 pts.) The objectives of this course will be achieved mostly through lectures, discussion, and experiential activities. Engagement has as much to do with your attitude toward the class, material, and assignments as it does your performance during our actual time together each session. The standard we will apply in evaluating your engagement is as follows: You are expected to attend class, arriving on time with assigned readings completed and any pre-class assignments completed and submitted, and then to interact and engage with the content and your fellow classmates. Your contribution to the learning of others, through the experience and insights you have, is a key part of this learning process. Please note that engagement is NOT equivalent to only attending class or merely talking in class. The quality of your contributions, your listening and responsiveness to others, and your overall attitude are important components. This means you must be well prepared before coming to class. Please consult with me if you are experiencing difficulty contributing. Effective class contribution is a skill that I can help you develop and one that you will find inimitably useful throughout your time in the program and your subsequent career. From time to time, assignments or class presentations will be given. Students will be notified of assignments and given necessary instructions at least one class session in advance. Assignments are due prior to the start of the session for which they were assigned. INCLUSIVE COMPETENCY PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN (20 pts.) The INCLUSIVE COMPETENCY PDP is described in the "Study Required Outside of Class" section above. MID-TERM TEST (30 pts.) The MID-TERM TEST will address material covered in session 1-6. FINAL TEST (30 pts.) The FINAL TEST will address material covered in session 8-13.
