Locke and Latham (2002 p.702) express that in order to succeed when setting goals, “specific” goals with a higher difficulty prove to be the most effective method. In order to effectively model my goal within this criteria, I have chosen a specific educational goal that will be an adequate level of challenge. My goal is to achieve and maintain a 3.3 GPA in the Winter 2016 semester. This goal will allow me to test various learning skills that are beneficial in a University context. It will also help me to better understand my current learning preferences and habits. Ellis, Toft, and Dawson (2012) describe how understanding and applying effective learning methods can be greatly beneficial in any setting.

Learning is a process on how we grow and develop. In life, we are constantly learning and we will never stop learning because there are always new skills to learn and techniques for us to adopt. As we take a look around us, we could probably find at least one technological item that we have in our household that may have upgraded or improved in the last few years or decade. So, I can’t really tell when or how I will evaluate that I am growing as a learner because I am constantly learning. However, I can evaluate that I am growing as a learner if I am current or up to date with today’s culture.

All students are familiar with assessments. They have been assessed on various levels all through primary and secondary school, and if they attended school afterward they 've experienced assessments in postsecondary school as well. Why do we do assessments? Assessments are necessary - they not only tell the instructor how well the students are doing but they also tell the instructor how well they are teaching. But there is much more to assessments than that. Assessments can be “an excellent instructional method to provide understanding

This course has taught me more than I could imagine over the past few months. I have reached and surpassed many of the goals I set for myself and reached objectives I never thought possible because of this class. Despite my success and continued improvement over the course of the semester, there is still much room for my writing to grow.

PPS: After completing the personal profile system worksheet, it was clear I had strong tendencies in the dominance category with secondary tendencies in the influence category leading to a results oriented profile pattern. Taking authority and making quick decisions are two dominance traits which are common with this type of profile, and they are also two traits that I’ve routinely demonstrated throughout my career. Accepting challenges head on is something I’ve always enjoyed and I possess a high level of confidence in my ability to overcome any obstacle. Those feelings are displayed in my rugged individualism, which creates a driving force of character and diligence that I’ve used to influence others in the accomplishment of the mission. This reinforces my need to take charge of the situation, believing that I’m the right person to ensure the job gets done. Additionally, my ability to think on my feet and make critical decisions very quickly often leads to success in my career field of aircraft maintenance, where time is often the number one critical factor impacting mission accomplishment. The influential side of my profile includes traits of articulation and active participation in a group. With each group activity we break into, I never hesitate to actively promote ideas and I’m often the one taking the most active speaking role as the group works through the assignment. A highly developed ability of articulation promotes the environment I desire to verbalize

A long time ago, or 12 years ago, on November tenth 2002 I was born.

My case study student is a 5th grader in Mrs. Helm’s classroom. Her name is Imani. She started school at U.S. Jones approximately a month ago. She moved to Demopolis from the state of Kentucky. In her first few days at U.S. Jones I noticed that she was very reserved. She did not want any attention directed to her. She would do the assigned work but did not want to answer any questions aloud or go to the board. When Imani moved to Demopolis, her previous school did not send any paper work or test scores with her. So the school system had no idea what educational background she had. I have over heard Imani tell her classmates that she is supposed to be in the 6th grade; no one has mentioned this to me so I am unsure of what

There are many interventions put in place to help students succeed in learning and understanding. I looked into one particular strategy that teachers use to help students learn, which is allowing students to retake assessments. The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not there is a difference in students’ mathematics achievement in a class that is allowed to retake assessments and a class that is not allowed to retake assessments. In order to discover the information that has already been gathered on retake assessments and their impact on student learning, I conducted a literature review. In this review, I will first introduce retake assessments, followed by the history of retakes, and the benefits and drawbacks of retakes. Additionally, I will compare retakes to other remediation alternatives. Finally, I will discuss the gaps in the knowledge of retakes and their effect on student achievement.
