Below is a link to a very simple log I created (in Word, not Excel). Feel free to use it, but make sure you take my name out of the header. You can just change the title for each course's log.

A Note from Ellen regarding the work we must do....

If your on-site supervisor signs off, I am going to assume >that you have completed the required 35 hours.

Those might include meeting minutes or agendas, notes on >legal cases, etc. What would you show your superintendent if, as a first >year principal, s/he asked for some "proof" that a particular project had >been completed?

 * Here is the assignment, which to me sounds very much like what we have to do for the Leading Schools in Context prepracticum, but on a broader scale.

Writing Assignment:** (posted 5/31/07, 5:00 pm) Select a challenging leadership issue(s) currently facing school leaders (teachers and administrators) in your community. After briefly describing the scenario, write a response (7-10 pages) to this particular situation with reference to the ISLLC standards as well as each of the required readings. The response should include your analysis of the situation integrating required readings and should imaginatively propose possibilities for action. In other words, how do the course readings inform the issue? APA format. Bring four (4) copies of this paper with you. You must turn the papers in when you arrive on campus. [|The ISLLC Standards]
