Week 11

Week 11


This week I focused on finishing the students presentations as well as conducted another group discussion on the Five bases of power. The cadets from both classes seemed to be very heated on this topic in regards to which bases of power is more important. This is why I had them write a short essay on any of their student leadership in the program describing which power bases that student uses and how they felt about it. They then as a group discussed their essays and tried to see if they could guess which student they wrote on. This worked out because it helped show them what is useful to use and not use as a leader. Some students wrote on strong student leadership and others complained about their student leadership that is weak but in the end they all applied the bases of power. I had them do this last lesson since next year they will be in the student leadership positions and will be running into the same issues as their current student leadership. The main point of this lesson is for them to understand the bases of power and how to use it to develop their leadership styles as future leaders. The cadets needed to present in any way they wished to but many  created slide shows for their presentation. One example is a  slide show that was created on

There was no class on week 12 since it is Thanksgiving day and the following week is their final. That way they can study for their other finals and not have to worry about the ROTC one.
