Setting goals - Is it enough?

#001: Setting goals, is that enough for success?

What does the process of goal setting look like for you right now?

As a teacher, goal setting usually come up at performance review time.  If you’re lucky, you’ll get to set one goal that you define.. the rest will come from the school improvement plan…  So..

When you’re goal setting for your teaching career, it’s important that you take your time and get it right!

When goal setting for yourself and your career how much reflective practice is involved?

Do you give yourself the opportunity to really consider what your current or past teaching practice shows you about who you are as a teacher? To really connect with your strengths and what your future goals might be?

Often, we get to set one small target for the term or year and we don’t get much time to think about why that target exists, how we’re going to meet it or what might be standing in our way.

It’s time to make goal setting more powerful so you can grow your teaching skills.

In this podcast episode of The Reflective Teacher Podcast, I’m going to talk about a new way of thinking about goal setting.  About how, reflecting on what you’ve done already and how that makes you feel is really important to your future success in your classrooms.

I’ll share a really practical (and super powerful) reflective exercise that you can do to dig deeper and discover what lights you up, what’s really holding you back, what you need to move forward and how you’re going to do that.  No more vague and uninspiring goals for you!

Of course, there’s a freebie to walk you through the process step by step. Including some prompts to turn the result into a powerful start of a story of practice for your edufolio.  Trust me, this exercise is going to hit a heap of standards!

One reflection, awesome goal setting and one heck of a result for your teacher portfolio!

In the episode, I’m going to walk you right through this process from reflecting to reflection post (which means evidence for your portfolio!).  Make sure you request the guide right now… oh.. and set aside some time to finish the task!

Don’t forget to share the reflections you right with @Edufolios on any social platform you like!  We can’t wait to read them!
