Authentic Assessment of Leadership in Problem-Solving Groups
Jennifer Jolly and Todd Kettler
Issues concerning the identification and training of leaders have roots in the earliest forms of modern Western education. Plato’s Republic outlines a plan allowing only those persons possessing the highest intellectual ability to receive training as a philosopher king, those who comprised the ruling body (Bloom, 1991). Thomas Jefferson also addressed the need for selecting and educating leaders for the United States of America, a burgeoning democracy at the time. Jefferson’s 1779 Bill for the More General Diffusion of Knowledge argued that a responsibility of education in a democratic society lay in identifying people of talent and preparing them to assume leadership roles (Gutek, 1995).
