Specific: You should target a specific subject area, grade level, and student
population. Provide enough detail so there is no indecision as to what
exactly you should be doing when the time comes to do it. A goal of:
Study biology is poor. Should you be reading your text? If so, what
pages? Or should you be looking over your lecture notes? A much better
goal would be: Read pp. 12-35 in biology text, write questions in the
margin of text, and practice answering those questions after reading.
Final Goal:
My final goal is based upon creating a plan to stay focused and to study so I can higher my grade. Also, it is
motivation to create a better focus point during the class; take notes, ask questions, participate, and complete
work. In order to determine that I have reached these points I will ask peers if was on task through out the
period. I want to get a an 80% or higher on my quizzes an at least a 90% on the end of the unit quiz.
