Task 9: Journalist

Imagen
Hi everyone!!!!!! How are you, guys?  I’m Elena, this week’s journalist and, as a consequence of this, I’m going to explain what we have done during this week: As every week, Linda, our teacher, posted the instructions of the task on the LMS, so we started to read them. This week the task was about Leadership styles … First of all, we had to read some information about the four basic leadership styles. You may not know the types of leaderships there are, so, I will explain a little the four that exist and their meaning: - Authoritarian leadership style : having control, planning everything, lack of flexibility and, above all, following a protocol. Giving little importance to emotions, human problems… The leader makes his/her own decisions without taking into account other people’s opinion. - Participative leadership style : respect is very important. It is about collaboration with everybody and also the creation of a family atmosphere. - Transactional leadership style : i...

Task 9: Translator

Imagen
Hi there! It’s Bea and, this week, I play translator’s role. Thus, my duty is reflecting the five crucial points of the ninth task called Leadership styles : To begin with, leadership is considered a paramount aspect to mention. It is the ability to coordinate and guide a group in order to achieve a goal. There are four leadership profiles: - Authoritarian : the word that better represents these people is ‘control’, since subordinates’ autonomy is actually restricted. Affection and friendly atmospheres are absent in authoritarian contexts, as the real goal is objectivity and productivity. This kind of leaders give priority to loyalty, instead of merits or personal achievements. They use ‘forcing’ and manipulative methods to ensure rules are respected and objectives achieved. An example of this profile is Recess ' principal and the teacher who supervises the playground: HollowchiefTV (2012, April 14). Recess Episode 21 The Great Jungle Gym Standoff [Video file]. Ret...

Task 9: Commenting other blogs...

Imagen
Hello!! I am Elena and here you have the comments I have written in other blogs. On the one hand, I have commented a blog that has a post about leadership styles. This is a very useful blog that has helped us in our performance of this week. Specifically, we have taken advantage of this in order to write our speech. It is due to the clarity and accuracy the owner uses when sharing information. So, these are the main reasons why I have commented this wonderful blog: https://blog.inkjetwholesale.com.au/start-ups/different-leadership-styles-work/#respond Now, you can see how I have commented Universal Teachers’ blog. We think last Friday Lola did an amazing job!! https://universalteachers2018.blogspot.com.es/2018/05/week-11-leadeship-styles-soyer1718.html?showComment=1525537974807#c6635955436945194901 And that’s all… See you next week! Lovely teachers.

Task 9: Reflection

Hello everyone, My name is Ángela and this is my second time being analyst. This week we have learned four types of leadership, authoritarian style, participative style, transactional style and transformational style. And according to the characteristics of the school we have invented, we have chosen one style. It has taught us an important thing, that is, to make suitable choices taking into account the context in which we are. It helps us a lot as future teachers because the decisions we will have to take depend on the students' attitude, motivation, behaviour and characteristics. For example, it is a good idea to implement authoritarian style in a class were students do not behave properly and do not care about learning, but, on the other hand it is a horrible idea to put that style in practice in a class where there are brilliant students. Besides, when we wrote the text that our fantastic star, Sara, presented on Friday during her campaign, we learned how to put in comm...

Task 9: Star

Hey, how is it going?  This week it's my turn to be the star. Currently I'm pretty nervous because of tomorrow's presentation; I don't know how it would turn out, but I just hope to be a really good leader! ;) For this task, I have taken the role of a new possible director that wants to enter in a school; my mission in this institution is to organize it all, because it's a mess: teachers, as well as students,  are used to do whatever they want, and when I say whatever I mean  whatever. I f they don't want to do something, they just don't do it. They don’t even follow any kind of rule!! This is something unacceptable. As a director, I must introduce new methods so that rules are followed. I just hope that people choose me as the perfect person to guide everyone in this school and to get the best of it. See you soon, Sara, from Lovely Teachers.
