    S-M-A-R-T Goals

    Goals Must Be S-M-A-R-T


    (Specific, Measurable, Achievable/Acceptable, Relevant/Realistic, Timely)

    Specific: You should target a specific subject area, grade level, and student
    population. Provide enough detail so there is no indecision as to what
    exactly you should be doing when the time comes to do it. A goal of:
    Study biology is poor. Should you be reading your text? If so, what
    pages? Or should you be looking over your lecture notes? A much better
    goal would be: Read pp. 12-35 in biology text, write questions in the
    margin of text, and practice answering those questions after reading.

    Measurable: You should identify the measurement instrument to be used


    and the element explained must be measurable. Your goal should be such
    that when you are through you have some tangible evidence of completion.
    It feels good to see something in front of you indicating a job well done.
    Equally important, you will be able to prove to yourself that you were
    successful and your time wasnt wasted.

    Achievable/Acceptable: Your goal should be set by you and by no one else.


    If it is a group goal (i.e. grade-level, building) then it should be a goal
    gained through consensus of the group. Assessment will best show your
    strengths and weaknesses, and you can use this information to maximize
    your chances of success. It should be achievable in the sense that
    achievable percentage gains are expected.

    Relevant/Realistic: Make sure the goal addresses a relevant subject area. Is


    the goal an urgent need? Dont plan to do things if you are unlikely to
    follow through. Better to plan a few comprehensive goals rather than many
    things and be unsuccessful. Success breeds success. Start small with
    what you can do, experience the joys of meeting your goal, and only then
    gradually increase the amount of work that you ask of yourself. Setting
    goals in which every minute of the school day is devoted to your goal(s) is
    unrealistic; unplanned events will crop up and wreak havoc with your
    schedule. Give yourself some flexibility.

    Timely: What is a reasonable timeframe to accomplish your goal? Is it one


    semester? Is it one academic year? Is it a two-week period of intense
    study? You should be using reality or baseline data points in available.
    Bottom line: Keep it real. Oftentimes, grade-level and/or building goals are
    set with an unrealistic timeframe.

    SMART Goals Worksheet


    Answers at time of development

    Specific

    What is the desired result? (who, what,


    when, why, how)

    Measurable

    My goal for Unit 4 is to get 85% on my Unit exam or more.

    How can you quantify (numerically or


    descriptively) completion?
    How can you measure progress?

    I can measure progress by going on Infinite Campus and


    checking my grade.

    Achievable

    To reach this goal, I am going to have to study, pay attention in


    What skills are needed?
    class, and ask questions when I am confused. The environment
    What resources are necessary?
    impacts whether I achieve this goal because if there are people
    How does the environment impact goal
    distracting me, I will not take down proper notes and I will not
    achievement?
    understand the lesson of that day. This goal requires a lot of
    Does the goal require the right amount of effort because I will not pass the test by doing nothing.
    effort?

    Relevant

    Is the goal in alignment with the overall


    mission or strategy?

    Time-bound

    What is the deadline?


    Is the deadline realistic?

    This goal is relevant because I want to keep my grade up at a B


    or higher and if I dont do well on the exam, my grade will be
    brought down.
    The deadline is the end of the quarter when I take the Unit
    Exam. The deadline is realistic because there are no test
    corrections so I have to give it my best and study.

    Final Goal:
    My goal for this unit is to get 85% on my exam or higher. I will reach this goal by studying and trying my best.
