Lead Teacher and Mentor
Since Otis is one of the few places offering a BFA in Toy
Design, it attracts students from all over the world. The
majority are non-native English Speakers. The problem of practice
addressed in the Capstone was a documented and observed lack of
participation and discourse on the part of some international
students (Ballard, 2001). My intervention was the execution of
small group brainstorms for product naming. This methodology was
backed up by research on student centered learning (Head and
Zhang, 2010), bonded groups (Senior, 1997) and finally, the idea
that brainstorming in small groups could foster creativity while
developing fluency (Houston, 2002). Presently, I am the head
teacher of a new course while preparing for program review. As
lead teacher and mentor, I will identify the role I will take,
outline leadership skills needed and the anticipated outcome from
the assumption of the leadership role.
6Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
I plan to use strategic planning skills (Kurtz, 2009) by
consulting with Jean-Marie Venturini, the Learning Technology
Designer at Otis to uncover what digital and online tools are
available to help efficiency. The upcoming program review affects
how I show evidence of learning for all classes. Since I am the
head teacher in a large classroom this term, I plan to use the
iPad for administrative tasks and for mobile, real time
“critiques” as the teacher leader (Barth, 2001). The course is
new, so I will design the course content, syllabus, materials and
arrange for guest speakers as the course curriculum developer
(Kurtz, 2009). Mentoring beyond the classroom is an important
area for leadership that I plan to pursue (Danielson, 2007). I
plan to stay in regular contact with the original brainstorm
group, coaching them on visual and verbal presentations.
In order to affect this situation, leadership skills such
being an active learner while teaching (Barth, 2001) and sharing
and mobilizing other teachers on the use of e-portfolios (see
Appendix A) with the aim of improving learning (Danielson, 2007).
7Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
Recognizing situations, anticipating changes and planning courses
of action (Kurtz, 2009) describes what I will face as the lead
teacher. Student-centered learning demonstrates that more
important than voicing beliefs is to look for ways to deepen
understanding of difficult issues (Ackerman, 2006). Regardless of
changes in technology or classroom environment, optimism,
enthusiasm, confidence and decisiveness (Danielson, 2007) are
qualities of an effective and insightful teacher as leader.
I anticipate the online sharing of knowledge and methods
through course e-portfolios to be practical. As lead teacher,
this will also become a collaborative space for the teaching
team. With the upcoming program review requirements, there is
urgency for instructors to understand assessment and collect
evidence of learning that should motivate interest. Regarding my
small group brainstorm method, I plan to share my findings and
research on my teaching e-portfolio I will develop in the blended
learning course I am just starting at Otis. I anticipate the fact
that the method is backed up by a broad swath of research will
8Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
give it credibility. The evaluation criteria will be the quality
of student evidence of learning, level of student discourse and
level of faculty and student compliance to use e-portfolios. The
small group brainstorms are techniques still in development, so I
would elicit ongoing feedback and discussion in order to
evaluate.
The framing of the method of dissemination is important. The
problem of practice that I addressed with small group
brainstorming is in response to observed and documented issues
that should concern instructors across the curriculum at Otis. I
do feel that program review that is also across the curriculum
will show the importance of intervening with methods such as mine
to encourage participation and discourse among international
students. Continuing to build community that extends beyond the
classroom and helps all, not just the students. I do see the
consequence of students’ improved adaptability to discourse and
participate in class and beyond as helpful to their careers and
aspirations (See appendices B and C).

Personal Profile
The characteristics of a successful teacher leader are to
mentor beyond the classroom (Danielson, 2007), think like a
curriculum developer (Kurtz, 2009) and to be a good strategic
planner (Kurtz, 2009). Conversely, and unsuccessful teacher
leader, says things like, “I’m just a teacher”, is unsupportive,
or is too cautious (Barth, 2001). The skills needed to effect
change as a teacher leader are to be an active learner while
15Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
teaching (Barth, 2001), have the ability to mobilize other
teachers with the aim of improving learning (Danielson, 2007),
recognize situations, anticipate changes and plan courses of
action (Kurtz, 2009) and to look for ways to deepen understanding
of difficult issues (Ackerman, 2006) instead of simply voicing
beliefs. In the end, it is optimism, enthusiasm, confidence and
decisiveness (Danielson, 2007) that make both a successful
teacher and leader.
My strengths as a facilitator of leadership are my desire to
constantly learn, improve and get student feedback. My weaknesses
are that I need to adapt to changes such as a team teaching
situation and delegate more, as I would naturally do in a
corporate environment. Since I now have formal education in the
education field, I am referred to for innovative lesson planning,
teaching methods and alternative assessment methods. Several
years ago I started utilizing the flipped classroom method. The
results improved dramatically. As the lead teacher this term, the
other teacher remarked about how he would like to try my methods
16Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
in his classes once he saw the results. My leadership skills and
knowledge combined with my passion for the content and delivery
will be what is necessary to see the changes that I feel are
essential to a more fulfilling international student experience.
Lead Teacher and Mentor Building Community
The problem of practice addressed in the Capstone was a
documented and observed lack of participation and discourse on
the part of some international students (Ballard, 2001). The lack
of ability or desire to discourse on the part of international
students is a concern because is signals that the students are
not receiving the full benefit of the art school environment.
Along with the high number of international students is also
“Generation 1.5” sharing both first and second-generation
characteristics. While they are familiar with American culture,
their writing and expression sometimes demonstrates elements of
second language learners (Ballard, 2001). My intervention was the
execution of small group brainstorms for product naming. This
methodology was backed up by research on student centered
17Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
learning (Head and Zhang, 2010), bonded groups (Senior, 1997) and
finally, the idea that brainstorming in small groups could foster
creativity while developing fluency (Houston, 2002).
One new development since the capstone project applies
directly to teacher leadership. I am the head teacher of a new
course while preparing for program review. Aside from the desire
to build community while my students are enrolled at Otis,
through the years I have observed benefits gleaned from
maintaining strong community connections and job search/skills
training support after graduation. I see this as a way to
casually follow up on my problem of practice: participation and
discourse of international students.
The MAT program at USC allowed me to look beyond the current
situation integrating current pedagogy, assessment (rubric design
and e-portfolios) and technology and to hone my process to
facilitate change (See Appendix A). I plan to use strategic
planning skills (Kurtz, 2009) by consulting with Jean-Marie
Venturini, the Learning Technology Designer at Otis. My class is
18Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
double the size I am accustomed to and it is the first time I
have been a lead teacher. I want to learn about digital and
online tools to help with efficiency, especially with regards to
program review and proof of evidence. I am also part of the
first cohort of the faculty iProject at Otis, utilizing and
reporting on iPad pedagogy use in the classroom. Since I am the
head teacher in a large classroom this term, I plan to use the
iPad for administrative tasks and for mobile, real time
“critiques” as the teacher leader (Barth, 2001). The course is
new, so I will design the course content, syllabus, create all
materials, videos, create demonstrations and arrange for guest
speakers as the course curriculum developer (Kurtz, 2009) (See
Appendix B).
I am able to strengthen my practice as an agent of change
through mentoring. Community building beyond the classroom is an
important area for leadership that I plan to pursue (Danielson,
2007) and appropriate for the industry the students will enter,
which is small and specialized. I plan to stay in regular
19Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
contact with the original brainstorm group as they prepare for
senior exhibitions to industry professionals, coaching them on
visual and verbal presentations (See Appendix D). I want to start
two closed networking groups on Facebook, one for job search and
networking for recent graduates, and one for internships and
skills support for current students. Also included in these
groups would be industry professionals chosen to mentor.
The characteristics of the school setting for this
particular problem of practice in the area of teacher leadership
is that all instructors are part time. The problem of practice is
first time lead teacher of a large class along with program
review compliance (mandatory use of rubrics and e-portfolios)
while still addressing the primary problem of practice of the
lack of participation and discourse with international students.
I anticipate the online sharing of knowledge and methods through
course e-portfolios to be practical. With the upcoming program
review requirements, there is urgency for instructors to
20Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
understand assessment and collect evidence of learning that
should motivate interest.
To counteract the problem of practice, the framing of the
method of dissemination is important. The proof will be in the
results. For example, I have a course e-portfolio with one
section viewable to the public that has every student and
includes links to portfolios, downloadable resumes and online
portfolios. This has never been done before and is an asset for
potential employers. The department chair has something concrete
to point to when talking to recruiters from various toy companies
all over the world. Since faculty can see the result, the method
is relevant. The consultation with the instructional designer is
proving to be highly useful, with iPad apps used to take roll and
keep track of assignments, e-portfolio to disseminate information
and access content 24/7. My delivery on program review is being
used as an example of best practices. Regarding my small group
brainstorm method, I plan to share my findings and research on my
teaching e-portfolio I will develop in the blended learning
21Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
course I am just starting at Otis (See Appendix C). I anticipate
the fact that the method is backed up by a broad swath of
research will give the method credibility. In terms of results,
my class doubled in size within one week because of word of mouth
relating to how much students enjoyed the brainstorm session.
Continuing to build community that extends beyond the
classroom and helps all, not just the students. This is my
passion and is shared by many within this small, specialized
industry. Collaborating with instructors while mentoring students
and recent graduates creates a learning environment that aligns
with sociocultural theory in that it is facilitated through
interaction between novice and more expert students, relating to
Vygotsky’s ZPD in that learners develop within a community of
practice. I do see potential for the most desired consequence:
students’ improved ability to discourse being helpful to their
careers and aspirations.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course concentrates on the organization and presentation of the
student’s portfolio. Additional attention is given to interviewing
skills and techniques. Students will also develop a promo sheet and
resume. All work will be presented in both analog and digital formats.
The first third of the course begins in identifying individual
strengths and areas of interest to prepare online and traditional
portfolios for the Internship Fair. Layout, typography, pacing and
branding elements will be covered. Next we will bring all visuals to
professional level presentation and portfolio standards, photographing
toy models, retouching photos and rendering. For the remainder of the
term we incorporate new work into the portfolio, brainstorm and design
product logos/toy names and continue to refine the online and print
portfolios, resume, and promo sheet. There will be regular brainstorm
and rapid visualization warm up sessions to frame our topics within a
real world context. Areas of personal sketching style and technique

ATTENDANCE POLICY
Attendance is critical to learning and academic success; students are therefore expected to attend all class meetings. During Fall and Spring semesters, students who incur more than two absences in a course that meets once per week, or more than four absences in a course that meets twice per week, will fail the course, barring exceptional circumstances as determined by the Chair. (During the 10-week Summer semester, the threshold for failure is more than one absence in a course that meets once per week, or more than two absences in a course that meets twice per week.) Exceptional circumstances include, but are not limited to: death in the family, serious medical conditions, hospitalization, observance of religious holidays, and some approved disability accommodations. Students wishing to claim exceptional circumstances must provide the Chair withappropriate documentation. At the Chair’s discretion, numerous
34Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
absences due to exceptional circumstances may warrant course withdrawal or failure. Three tardies (including arriving late or leaving early) equal one absence.
STUDENT BEHAVIORAL EXPECTATIONS
As members of the Otis College community, students are expected to behave responsibly at all times. The College expects and trusts its students to be honest in their studio, classroom, and community endeavors. Students are expected to assist in maintaining an environment that supports effective teaching and learning, and a culture of civility and respect for others. Any behavior that disruptsor interferes with the functioning of a classroom, studio, or College-sponsored off-campus venue may therefore result in students being asked to leave the class. In addition, students may be subject to disciplinary action as per the Student Code of Conduct and/or have their grade lowered in the course.
DISABILITY AND ACCOMODATIONS
Students with a documented disability should contact Students with Disabilities Services (SDS) before accommodations are needed (telephone 310-846-2554; e-mail [email protected]). SDS will verify documentation (or advise students as to the proper documentation needed) and send a “notification letter” to the relevant faculty. No faculty member can give accommodations without an official written request from SDS. Retroactive accommodations are not provided. All discussions will remain confidential.

PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism occurs when a person deliberately uses another person’s concepts, language, images, music, or other original (not common knowledge) material without acknowledging the source and/or making substantial modifications. While referencing or appropriating may be part of a studio or Liberal Arts and Sciences assignment, it is the student’s ethical responsibility to acknowledge and/or modify the original material. Specific examples of plagiarism include:
Submitting someone else’s work in whole or part (including copying directly from a source without documentation and/or alteration, or turning in studio work that is not your own).
Having someone else produce, revise, or substantially alter all or part of a written paper or studio assignment.
Cutting and pasting any textual or image-based work from the internet without proper documentation or clarification of sources.
Failing to cite sources. Proper citations in MLA style and a Works Cited page must accompany all papers. Guidelines to proper citation are available in The College Writer’s Reference and through the Otis Library website.
Using the writing, editing, or creative services of another person who quantitatively and/or qualitatively revises the paper and/or studio work significantly.
36Running head: CAPSTONE B – Teacher Leadership Portfolio
Allowing an editor to change so much of a paper that it is no longer the student writer’s work.
Instances of alleged plagiarism are reported to the Academic IntegrityCommittee for review. For a complete description of the Academic Integrity Committee process, please link to http://www.otis.edu/life_otis/student_life/student_affairs/conduct.html.
