Inquiry Project - Student Leadership

What is your question and how did it arise for you?

What are the impacts of increasing student leadership in schools?
How can we improve and implement student leadership programs?

Why is your question significant (to you and/or to others)?

I currently am part of a youth leadership development program at the YMCA and the practicum coordinators at Tupper have recently implemented a student leadership program aimed at involving students in the development of student teachers.

I hope that my findings are able to show how leadership opportunities affects students involvement in schools and if there are any other positive (or negative) outcomes.

What resources will you draw on to explore your question?? (e.g. journal, readings, curriculum/policy documents)

journals, readings, interviews with students and teachers

What do you expect to find out?

I expect to find examples of student leadership programs which have been implemented in secondary schools in North America and how these have impacted the students and the school community. I hope to be able to get these findings from both a researcher, teacher and student perspective.
