Reflection On Learning Objectives

Set goals and objectives – this is generally what is hoped to be achieved in the long term by setting out short term and specific achievements to contribute to that goal

I believe that goals can give me strong motivations and guide me in a right way to pursue them. My short-term goal is to

Setting goals give me the motivation I need so that I know I am working toward something I really want. My goals are my reminder that no matter how hard the task maybe I must take each one of them head on to accomplish them. Goals may change along the way however the result of them will never, and that is the feeling of success and accomplishment that I will feel knowing I’ve done all I can and set my mind to.

Now that my goals are listed out and articulated into a time frame it really helps to put things into perspective of what needs to happen now. For instance I am just starting out in bobcats against hunger as an executive board member. I hope this position will bring out some more leaderships skills within me that will help me later in life, like when I apply for graduate schools and in the real world working hopefully doing my dream job. That is just yet another example of something that will help gear my towards my end goal. If no one ever set goals where would we be today? It is an interesting question and one that makes me thankful that we all set goals daily and achieve them. For example if I did not set a goal to review for a test then come that test I probably wouldn’t pass which would not further me along my aspirations to finish college. So therefore I’m glad I set goals and that everyone else does no matter how big or small they all eventually lead to something

If you do not set goals or achievements for yourself then, you will not be successful in life. One major goal that I set for myself is to be elected at the ROTC program at Colts Neck High School. Unfortunately, it will not be an easy goals to achieve. It is going to a long bumpy ride until I reach my destination. However, if I study hard, complete all of my school assignments, and get antoshining grades then, I can find a shortcut to make this ride shorter and maybe even smoother after all. Also, participation is one of the main keys to achieving this goal. I make sure that I participate in class and in after school activities such as track and field and basketball because then my teachers and my coach could recommend me. This single goal persily will overall make me smarter and a hardworking student by the end of the year.

Goals are something that each individual should have, however, they can be short term or long term. My short term goal over the next year; I would like to

The efforts to reaching a goal begin with self-discipline and confidence that accomplishing the goals with being another milestone completed within the timeframe allotted. Reviewing each goal over and over is something that will happen on a regular basis until satisfaction of the results. Making one’s self-accountable to family and friends is one of the best ways to reach a goal. The family and friends support an individual with his or her vision to do better in life. Determining the big picture of the goals, selecting activities to help achieve goals and choosing daily tasks to make up the chosen goal is heading in a positive direction (Laureate Education,

The coach of the 1980´s Olympic hockey team Herb Brooks told others ¨Let me start with issuing you a challenge: be better than you are. Set a goal that seems unattainable, and when you reach that goal set another one even higher¨. Every journey starts with a goal and a journey to that goal helps improve many parts of ourselves. Like a growing business the closer it gets to the owner´s goal the products will become more and more detailed.

I am going to apply this mindset by not procrastinating and trying harder. I will need to have discipline and I will need to push through it no matter how much I don’t want to. I will need to set boundaries and not break those boundaries. All my life I have been taught to persevere and work through it but now I must do it completely not half way. Doing what I need to do and getting it done and striving actually feels really good and I need to get back to using that mindset.

In the article “Succeed: How We Can Reach Our Goals” by Heidi Grant Halvorson which is also the world’s leading on goal settings. When setting a life goal make sure to set the bar high but not to high so it’s difficult but not impossible. Have a little piece of goal wisdom which means when a teen imagines to lose weight and they end up losing weight. People that are successful don’t just have confidence that they will succeed, but they also have confidence that they will succeed. Some people don’t like hearing people say that they can’t succeed. There’s no way that you can’t achieve because all you need is effort, planning, persistence and good strategies to achieve your goal. You need to stay motivated to achieve. Stay focused on goals

Goal #1. Emotionally I will work on saying no more often allowing myself more personal time to work at my own goals and to spend more time with my family.

You must keep the vision of your desired, future achievement in the forefront of your mental focus. If you build a vision of your future that is

A goal is defined according to Wong are “well-defined plans of actions aimed at achieving specific outcomes or results” (102). Goals are a good way to set out plans to complete long term or short term. Also goals can give you motivation to accomplish an outcome. For example, you could write a goal on a piece of paper put it on your wall to remind you what you are working for. From my experiences, I put a sticky note on my mirror or write down a goal in my planner on what to accomplish for that week whether it is personally, academically, or Athletically. Also according to Wong some strategies to achieve goals includes “using positive self-talk, using the ABC method, monitoring your process, and keeping your goals in the forefront” (111). Not only setting and trying to achieve your goals can be easy but motivation can be hard to be and stay motivated to achieve those

Reflection is thought by linking recent experience with early experience to promote more complex and interrelated mental models or patterns. The thinking involves looking for commonalities, differences, and interrelations beyond their superficial elements. The goal is to develop higher order thinking skills.

I believe a successful learning experience is engaging and valued by the students. I believe students’ will value what they are learning if they believe what they’re learning is relevant. Relevance is important to teaching and learning because it is directly related to student engagement and motivation (Frymier & Schulman, 1995; Martin & Dowson, 2009). Marsh (2008), states a positive classroom environment provides a sense of security, community, belonging and identity (Marsh, 2008). Based on my experience as a practicing teacher, I have found establishing clear expectations within the classroom assist in maintaining control and discipline, to create a safe learning environment (Fatt Hee, 1996). I believe within all classrooms, students’ diversity should be valued. This creates a discrimination free environment and ensures students feel safe and included (Philips, 2010). According to Stanford & Parkay (2007) students are more engaged in class when learning experiences are satisfying, challenging and friendly.
