Learning Outcomes

• Demonstrate critical, creative, and constructive engagement with practical disciplines, texts, traditions, social systems, and political structures.

• Apply contextually based approaches to social issues and the development of self-reflective leadership skills that are effective in the student’s particular spiritual leadership context. The student can present some evidence of social change in that context as a result of the project.

• Demonstrate partnership with people in other professional leadership settings, such as: the knowledge of theological thinkers and schools of thought from contexts other than their own; work done ecumenically, in an inter-faith relationship; work across lines of culture; and/or work in partnership with community organizations to address systemic oppression and work for the common good.

• Communicate a sense of direction for a professional leadership setting, using appropriate media.

• Produce and communicate new knowledge about a selected issue and discipline in the context of praxis.

• Give evidence of a self-reflective and engaged spirituality that can critically engage social location and personal experience. These outcomes are demonstrated through clearly articulated projects that locates the student in their own social context and supplies concrete expressions of their spirituality foundations and leadership applications.

• Integrate new understanding and competencies into a spiritually coherent analysis of a specific praxis issue as evinced in well-formulated descriptions of new advances achieved and the actions required to manifest them in practice.
