Goals
There is a common goal everyone needs to be involved to help achieve
Thanks, Cory. How do you inspire students to internalize the goals you set for them?

At the begining of my new class I will actually tell my students about the goals I have set for each and every one of them....that way by the end of the class they will see that they have successfully met the goals I have laid out for them and it gives them a feeling of accomplishment and the ability to say....hey I can learn and do that.
Without a goal you have nothing to look forward to, or work towards. Set goals for yourself and your students and celebrate when those goals have been met.
Robert,
Thanks for this post. How do you help your students to set "smart goals?"
Goals are the target to measure success by.If the goal is to get through anoyher day that may be all that happens.We should try to create goals that can be achieved and have a high probability of improving student and organization quality. If goals are not measurable and attainable it could be damaging to student and staff. There needs to be the tools and support to acieve goals.
Charles,
Without any type of goal we simple create a goal to stay the way we are everyday.
Goals are very important.
They are the yardstick we measure ones self with.
Without goals we become apart of the rat race in life.
Everyday is the same and we get lost.
James,
I believe that is exactly how we are to set our goals.
I always set goals higher than what i think i can achieve, that way if i don't reach them, I still exceded my expectation.
Michael,
You are correct, if we do not set goals that differ from our current reality, we automatically set a goal to stay the same as our current reality.
Goals must be set in life. Without them we would have no drive.
Without a goal there is no point.
without a goal there is no point.
Goals cause energy. The stronger the goals the stronger the energy you create.
you always have to have short and long term goals,they should be explained well,and documented before moving on to the next,you should give a deadline date.stay positive.
Goals can sometimes be challenging. I believe that the more people that you have working towards a goal, the more of a chance you have to accomplish that goal and to a more satisfactory level.
Setting the long and short term goals and making them achieveable is the only way.
