Welcome to my leadership portfolio. My name is Yadvinder and I am currently in the Masters of Education program at UOIT. This portfolio is being made as a requirement for a course called Foundations of Leadership. You will find artefacts here that depict how I have taken the knowledge acquired in this course and applied it to my teaching practice and other areas of my life.
I think that learning and then applying knowledge is the true purpose of learning. As Jim Rohn says, "Study, practice, and teach" (Rohn, 2014). I think portfolios are a great way to show how we are practicing what we have studied. I enjoy this process much more compared to showing what I know through a multiple choice test. I feel that actually taking action based on the knowledge acquired works better for me in terms of learning for the long term. As a student my search for wisdom is leading me to a path of trying to figure out what works well in the world that I live in. As a result, I am eager to take what I am learning and test it out in my practice. So far, one of the key insights I have gleaned from this course is the phenomenal practice of Individualized consideration. It is an extremely effective practice as it is helping me learn more about the students that I am teaching and it is helping me build relationships and focus in on their improvement.
Sincerely,
Yadvinder
