Provide+Guides+and+Checklists

Provide guides and checklists for goal-setting.

Many students have difficulty creating goals for themselves, and struggle to keep track of the required components of course projects/assignments. You can help students stay on target by providing them with opportunities to monitor their goal-setting. Use the strategies listed on this page to help students enhance their goal-setting skills.
