Set Goals For School Success Having goals is important in everyday life ­ it gives a sense of direction and purpose, and it sets goalposts by which we can navigate almost everything that we do. Nowhere is goal-setting more important than in school! Setting academic goals can be challenging for students ­ most students merely exist from day to day, from test to test, without much thought to where they are going or where they currently are. "Students often just tread water. Setting goals helps them to set a target to aim for, which gives them an advantage over students who are simply staying afloat," said Patricia Leggett, the centre manager of Oxford Learning Georgetown. To set goals, students need to take a look at their current academic standing. Usually there is one area that could use special attention, such as science, math, or completing homework. To help students begin setting goals, they should become familiar with Oxford Learning's CAM Rule for setting goals: Goals need to be Clear, Achievable and Measurable. Clear. Make sure that goals are clear and specific. It shouldn't be "improve my science grade," but "I want to understand the periodic table of elements." Achievable. Keep goals realistic. A Cminus student has a better chance of getting a C-plus on the next test than an A. Measurable. By setting a goal that has benchmarks, you can track success. Last week Tim only knew three periodic elements; this week he knows 10! The CAM method for setting goals makes academic resolutions easy to keep. Students won't get discouraged and abandon their resolutions because they can track their progress and celebrate their successes, no matter how minor the achievement is. Success leads to more confidence. More confidence creates increased motivation. Motivation leads to setting more goals and even greater success! -- Article supplied by Patricia Leggett, Centre Manager of Oxford Learning Georgetown
