Long Term Academic Goals

To me “taking ownership of your learning implies that I am solely responsible for my studies. It therefore calls for me to plan very well for the new responsibility I have vested upon myself so that will achieve remarkable success.

Last year I sent my third and final child off to college. At that point I had to determine what my next steps with my personal and professional life would be. One of the main things that I never accomplished was receiving my degree, so I decided to enroll in Patten University and begin my journey of obtaining my Bachelors of Arts degree in Leadership Management. In earning my degree it would offer me additional opportunities with my professional career in obtaining a position that would only be given to someone that has a degree.

My short term goals are to earn multiple degrees in college and discover what career I want to pursue. I plan to do this by working extremely hard in a wide variety of classes in order to find what fields I could work in and enjoy. Since I’m not entirely sure what I want to pursue in life, my only prevailing long term goal is to be content and proud of what I have accomplished. I feel that as long as I consistently work hard and strive to be the best I can be, I will accomplish this goal. I believe that Weber Honors College will help me to achieve these goals by constantly challenging me to outdo myself. I also believe the amazing opportunities the school provides such as a wide selection of majors and classes, study abroad experiences, and

My first collegiate academic goal is: I will earn at least an 80 percent on my first biology and statistics exams. Being that I truly love both math and science, receiving superb grades on my first exam for these two are extremely important to me because they are hand-and-hand at placing for the second hardest classes thus far in college (in my personal opinion). Achieving this enabling goal would motivate me to strive for higher grades in the near future, helping me believe that I could do much better in order to attain a great GPA, so that I could get into medical school after receiving my undergraduate degree. Practicing my study habits will construct the permanent foundation of how I progress as a college student. How will I do so? The first action step that will be made to reach this goal is to sit in the front of the classroom. I get easily distracted, so sitting in the front of the classroom, especially one with 254 students, will not only decrease the chances of me getting distracted, but will ensure that the information has properly been withheld. Also, recording lectures to review later and rewriting notes are great methods that will definitely be beneficial to me when studying for exams. Next, if there is not enough time to meet up with the professor, I will sign up for various tutoring/office-hour sessions to review homework and basic concepts that are needed to pass the exams with a guaranteed good grade. On this journey called life, I continue to learn more and

Everything I learn will benefit me in the future. Knowing when to graduate will allow me to be a step closer to my long term educational goal. I do want to be successful in life and school is helping me towards that. At the skill shop the lady mention seeing your adviser from time to time to make sure you are ready to graduate. That is one thing that will help because that’ll allow me to know how much further I’ll have to go in order to earn my degree. Meeting your adviser also tie into knowing the path you have choosing is good and the way you are doing it, is efficient.

As an aspiring doctor and aspiring direct M.D. student, my desire is to learn more about the STEM subjects such as science, medicine, and mathematics. I wanted to be a doctor, to help people heal, help people reach their fullest potential in their health and to save people’s lives. My interests vary from psychology to mathematics to sciences to anatomy and much more. My goal for next year as a junior is to take the course, AP Biology. In senior year, if possible, I would like to take the course Honors Biotechnology Project. This project includes extracting DNA from an organism, then amplifying and sequencing the gene. Also, I hope to take challenging advanced courses such as AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, and Honors Anatomy and Phycology. With these big dreams and goals that I hope I can accomplish, I know I will need to work

For my overall academic goal I would love to get a 4.0 G.P.A but I would at least like to get a 3.5 G.P.A in all of my general and my college major classes for each semester I take at Florissant Valley and also when I attend Forest Park. My strengths to achieve my goal is to stay in my books and study hard to make sure I dont get distracted so I can achieve my goal every semester. Even though I do well in school I need to work on a couple things, one thing I need to work on is my health and wellness, because to achieve my goal I need to have strength and energy and sense my health is poor I get really tired all the time, also something else I need to work on is time management, I need to stop procrastinating and do things right when I get them

As I have been pursuing my education, I have grown to appreciate and value my past instructors from preschool to college. My academic interests are to strive to do the best I can in my coursework as well as visualize the ways my instructors teach me so I can establish those same teaching methods onto my own teaching. I want to be on top of my grades and want my grades to reflect exactly how committed I am to becoming a teacher. I want to use what I have been taught to the best of my abilities when I the opportunity in having a teaching position. My career path has already began ever since I have tutored in high school as well as in a summer school migrant program, where I was able to instruct students and teach them many subjects such as social

As a young women of color who's aware of her surroundings and the constant problems that occur in the world today, I have set many goals to solve a number of those problems. I have started working towards those goals through volunteering and studying. All around the world, different problems occur most of which are on different scales of significance. The problems I’m referring to are starvation, poverty, and famine. Over 795 million people suffer from constant undernourishment. Over 22,000 children die everyday due to poverty. This is a very sensitive topic and one I hold close to my heart. I aspire to have some type of positive impact on this issue and with my college degree I can do this.

Personal objectives for this course: I want to learn how to improve my overall writing and reading skill. Unfortunately, I am not a big fan of writing. In addition to refining my writing and reading skills, I would like to love writing and not dread it. I want to learn how to create an effective and strong resume, so that I can land a job and internship in my field.

Setting goals for academic, short term, and long term purposes can help you stay on track and be successful in life. My first goal is to achieve a 4.00 GPA. I can accomplish this goal by working hard in school by studying, taking good notes, listening to the teacher, and being organized so I get my homework done on time. This goal is important to me because I want to set a good example for myself and prove to myself that I can maintain an A average. My next goal is to participate in a school club or activity. To achieve this goal, I must research different activities from the Sheyenne website, and figure out what I want to do. This goal is important to me because I want to become more involved in my school and receive scholarships on my way

Effective goal setting is the key to getting things accomplished. Obstacles can get in the way of

Dr. Martin Luther King Junior once stated, “I have a dream…” Each and every one of us can discover that we all have our own dream. Our dream can reflect our career, personal, and academic goals. When our dream can fulfill each one of these goals, we can define it as our purpose. My purpose can be very confusing, and contorts to certain situations. In the past week, I have thought about my true meaning in this world. I believe my purpose is to teach others and make a difference through influencing other’s lives. My life’s goal is to teach the uneducated especially pointed towards the little ones. I want to educate those from the ages of eight months to eight or nine years. Influencing people’s lives can make the difference from a bleak world full of hatred and dismay to a world full of love and charity towards one another. I hope I can influence just enough of the right people to learn to accept others how they are presented to us. Personal goals of mine include teaching children, making a difference by influencing, and starting a family of my own. My academic goals for college include graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education. Also, I want to maintain a grade point average of three-point-seven or higher. The career in education can be quite vigorous and I owe it to my future students to attain the best, most competent education I can receive to be able to teach them well. My career goal is to teach in a Kindergarten classroom working with special needs

Goal 1: This goal is written measurably because it is something as a class we can keep her accountable for and help her succeed by giving her feedback. Others reading this would understand her intent because in order for her to improve at something she would need constructive feedback from people/teachers/peers to increase her academic and even her overall performance. This goal is objective because her instructors can further her academic success by evaluating her performance and can see her change throughout the program.

Goals, no one really sits and think about them because to most people they really are not important. In college, there are many short term and long term goals that you can strive for to brighten your future. Most short term goals lead to our long term goals. With college you constantly have a new short term goal, every week. My short term goal is to make all A’s throughout all of my college years in that it will allow me to access further quality education, give me the opportunity to make a lot of money in the future, and the ability to mentor others.
