Learning Intention

Using a goal-setting framework, students set clear intentions to assist them in moving forward.

Provide student access to the ReachOut.com article ' How to set goals'.
Ask students to write down two goals they would like to achieve. Set a time frame relevant to the students – for example, before the end of term, or before the end of the year.
Give students the option of using either of the following apps to set their goal or write it down:
- HabitBull
- Goal Setter

By setting goals, we can track our progress and remain clear on what we wish to achieve.
