This fall, NOVA Online has created a Leadership Common Experience for students taking online classes to engage with peers outside of their Blackboard classroom and explore personal and professional leadership skills and qualities that will promote their success and overall personal growth in college.
We want to highlight that students can still find similar resources to make the most of their college experience, even if that experience is primarily virtual.
Beginning August 25th here is the outline of themes that we have picked for each week so you can see progression of the program and pick out topics that might be of interest to you:
Week 1: Identifying Online Student Success Skills In and Out of the Classroom
Week 2: Understanding Self in the College Environment/Goal Setting for the Semester
Week3: The Importance of Faculty Rapport
Week 4: Job and Career Exploration
Week 5: Netiquette- Creating a Positive Online Presence
Week 6: Next Steps- Revisiting Goal Setting For The Future
