Exploring Signature Pedagogies in Undergraduate Leadership Education
Jenkins, Daniel M.
Journal of Leadership Education, v11 n1 p1-27 Win 2012
This research explores the instructional strategies most frequently used by leadership educators who teach academic credit-bearing undergraduate leadership studies courses through a national survey and identifies signature pedagogies within the leadership discipline. Findings from this study suggest that class discussion--whether in the form of true class discussion or a hybrid of interactive lecture and discussion--is the signature pedagogy for undergraduate leadership education. While group and individual projects and presentations, self-assessments and instruments, and reflective journaling were also used frequently, overall, discussion-based pedagogies were used most frequently. These findings offer attributes that a variety of leadership educators have shared as effective for teaching and learning within the discipline and may facilitate the development of new leadership programming policies, provide direction for future research, and contribute to the existing body of literature. (Contains 5 tables.)
