Praxis 201: Leaders In Context
3.00 Credits

In this course we explore leadership both theoretically and practically. Focus is on understanding the concept of culture and how the cultural context informs a leader's style and effectiveness. This course also is designed to help students develop insights about leadership practice through readings, discussions, conversations with leaders, and group projects based on fieldwork. Students examine a wide variety of leaders and leadership styles in order to better understand how leaders mobilize followers within the constraints of their particular settings. Students also analyze the creation of institutional identity within organizations and corporate culture and explore effective leadership practices within these settings, as well as analyzing some cross-cultural examples of leadership.

Praxis 207: Fluency in Sociotechnology
2.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course studies the fundamentals of technology and how that technology is effectively implemented in organizations and affects human interactions and processes. We consider much of Microsoft Office: Excel, Access, and PowerPoint and how the presentation of data in these forms affects our decision-making processes and how humans interact using these technologies. We also develop web skills with a close look at how presentation of information and data in general functions or does not function based simply on how it is presented.

Praxis 225: Presentation Matters: The Art and Science of Visually Using Technology
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course seeks to add in-depth sophistication to the functional skills acquired in one of the Praxis core courses, Fluency in Sociotechnology. Through interdisciplinary reading and exercises, the course illustrates to students that not all visual messages are created equal even when they contain the same information. For example, the most commonly used presentation tool, Microsoft PowerPoint, is routinely used in ways that misrepresents the data it is meant to explain. Organizations often create confusing and complicated spreadsheets that produce numerous and costly errors, the very thing the software is meant to eliminate. Furthermore, web sites are regularly so difficult to navigate and use they unknowingly hemorrhage profits and customers, the two things the technology is designed to attract. In this course, students learn the social, psychological, and organizational implications of using these technologies so they may become more skillful and effective practitioners.
