You will examine foundational theories of leadership and change, and assess their validity in the context of a digital learning environment. Building on these theoretical foundations you will explore how successful projects are initiated and managed and how leaders can incorporate data and learning analytics in their decision making. You will then create a planning tool and develop a project plan for the implementation of educational technology(ies) and\/or changes to a learning program or organizational policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ethical Review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may need to inteview or correspond with other professional colleagues to gather information in order to complete some of the activities and assignments in this course.
