This study explored how undergraduate students used a leadership learning framework for self-reflection. Key findings indicate leadership metacognition, observation, and development were most influential in their personal leadership learning.
Area of Science:
- Education
- Psychology
- Leadership Studies
Background:
- The leadership learning framework provides a structured approach to understanding leadership development.
- Undergraduate education offers a critical period for cultivating leadership skills.
- Self-reflection is a vital component of personal and professional growth.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze student self-identification of influential aspects within a leadership learning framework.
- To evaluate the framework's utility as both learning content and a reflective tool for undergraduates.
- To identify the most salient components of leadership learning from the student perspective.
Main Methods:
- Data were collected from 32 undergraduate students using the leadership learning framework.
- Students self-identified the most influential aspects of the framework for their leadership learning journey.
- Qualitative analysis focused on aspects identified by five or more respondents.
Main Results:
- All six aspects of the leadership learning framework were mentioned by students.
- Leadership metacognition was identified as a highly influential aspect of leadership learning.
- Leadership observation and leadership development were also reported as key influential factors.
Conclusions:
- The leadership learning framework effectively serves as both educational content and a reflective tool for undergraduates.
- Metacognition, observation, and development are critical areas for fostering leadership learning in undergraduate students.
- Further research can explore the application of this framework across diverse student populations and educational settings.
