Module 1 Discussion
SWOT Analysis
Review the Program Outcomes for the Educational Specialist in Leadership below. Develop a SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analysis of your current knowledge and skills in meeting these outcomes. How will an analysis of program outcomes help you revise your personal and professional goal statements as a teacher?
Discussion Guidelines
• Write 2 full pages (double-space), which must include information from 3 professionals, scholarly sources that are cited in APA style and a complete bibliographic entry in APA style at the conclusion of the post. A website can be cited (with a URL) but does not count as the outside article unless it is clearly an entire website that uses peer-review. This permits use of an online scholarly journal, for example, that does not have a print version. But a website such as Wikipedia would not qualify because, while edited and vetted (to a degree), it is not a refereed source.
• APA citations are required
