EDU 705 - Principled Leadership-Ethics, Values and Moral Leadership

Credits: 3

This course examines from a Christian perspective how leadership practices with a moral dimension built around purpose, values, and beliefs can transform a school into an outstanding organization marked by commitment, dedication, and service. Students will examine how transformational leaders respond to situations they encounter and reflect upon how their own moral values and ethical understandings enable principled decision making. The texts will be used as a framework to examine real life situations and to apply ethical decision making to daily situations that school leaders face. All assignments will be expected to focus on the role and level of the Massachusetts license being sought.
