Reflections of Chinese students on a university subject on leadership and intrapersonal development

摘要

Students were invited to write personal reflections about the subject, called Tomorrow ' s Leaders, to examine its effectiveness in promoting holistic development in students. Based on the reflections of 104 students, data were separately rated by two independent raters using a standardized rating form. Intra-rater and interrater reliability analyses revealed that the coding of reflections was reliable. Results showed that the informants generally had positive feedbacks about the subject and lecturers. Furthermore, they perceived that the subject promoted their overall development in different domains. Exemplar cases were highlighted in this paper.
