Important part of advocacy and leadership work

/in /by

Storytelling is an important part of advocacy and leadership work because it answers the “why” questions: why we care, why the work we do matters, and why we are organizing for change. The purpose of this assignment is for learners to develop their story following the Public Narrative Framework (ICL, 2017): Story of Self, Us and Now. Learning to craft and re-craft your story based on peer coaching and feedback is an important leadership practice.

 

Learning Outcome Assessed:

CLO 1: Demonstrate the qualities of an early childhood professional to foster social justice and social transformation through advocacy in diverse early childhood communities.

 

Assignment Steps:

  1. An advocate’s Public Narrative Story must revolve around a specific issue – for this assignment, construct your ECE story (if you feel strongly that you want to focus on an issue other than ECE, speak to your professor). Draft your Public Narrative Story using the Institute for Change Leaders (2017), Building Skills for Change Teaching Guide, Chapter 2 (pp. 21-31) as a reference and the attached worksheets (adapted from ICL, 2017).
  2. Record a video of yourself sharing your story (telling your story is different from just reading it out loud!). An effective Public Narrative Story should be no longer than 5 minutes and it should have distinct Self, Us and Now components.Storytelling is an important part of advocacy and leadership work because it answers the “why” questions: why we care, why the work we do matters, and why we are organizing for change.

Economic basis for social (human) development

/in /by

Consider the maquiladoras as an economic basis for social (human) development.  Look at all sides of the maquiladora phenomenon, go through all the pros and cons, look at the multiple perspectives, and then come to a carefully reasoned overall assessment of them. Remember, it is important to demonstrate to me that you understand the concepts and the case material. Do not use Chapter 3 for the paper (you’ve already reflected on your main post), but rather discussed the rest of the chapters. The paper should be several paragraphs and in detail with citations or sources.
