Goal Setting Reflection
1.Describe yourself as a learner… (e.g. What are your strengths, challenges, how much do you prepare, timeliness, etc…)
The best way I learn is by paper and writing things down. Also repetition is really helpful. I struggle with just listening because I will forget by the time I leave the class, so I always have to write things down.
2.Describe your main goal for this class… (can be any outcome – make friends, learn about the brain, get an A)
My main goal for this class is to learn about the education system because I want to work with kids in schools. Also to meet new people and make connections.
3.What level of performance are you hoping to achieve in this class? (high (get all the points), medium (turn things in), low (try to keep up).
My goal is to have a high performance.
4.What topics are you hoping to learn about and become the most familiar with?
I am hoping to learn more in depth about what happens in schools behind the scenes that maybe a student of the school would not see or know about.
5.What level are you expecting yourself to perform at based on past experiences in school?
I am expecting myself to perform at my best ability by trying not to slack on homework and try to participate as much as possible.
6.What level of effort are you planning to extend? (Consider your other commitments this fall)
I will be busy from other classes and also being on the track team, but I still expect myself to perform at my best effort.
7.What is your plan to stay prepared and organized?
My plan is to write everything down and make efficient ways to memorize terms.
8.What types of supports/systems will help you accomplish your goals?
The support systems that will help me are my friends, classmates, and the professor.
9.How will you hold yourself accountable if you fall behind?
If I fall behind, I will miss out on other activities and try and get the assignment done before I do anything.
10. What is your plan for if this class shifts to a virtual setting? How will you still hold yourself accountable to your goals?
If it shifts to virtual, I will try and go somewhere other than my dorm because it might cause me to not pay attention. I will hold myself accountable by getting it done right away and not push it back.
