How to Set Goals
Based on the nature of learning where students have to learn foundational critical thinking and study skills first, and that they sometimes have to take courses that don't completely fall into interest areas, it can be easy for them to sometimes feel as though they are checking boxes and it's hard to see the big picture. Or, they have real vision for what they want to achieve in the long run but it is hard to reverse plan and break things down into smaller, manageable steps. Today, we will be talking with our local expert, Jake Wozniak about how to demystify and take the guesswork out of setting goals. We will talk through some concrete examples and strategies for goal setting.
