An important aspect of making student learning valuable is to focus planning on setting goals in terms of desired outcomes (knowledge skills, attitudes, values) that we want that our students develop. By developing clear goals, students feel there is a reason to learn. Furthermore, it is important to provide feedback, because it helps students improve their achievement of their objectives and consolidate their understanding. Teachers need to communicate goals, this way students will be able to know what they are doing in class and what they should be learning. Some recommendations for setting goals in the classroom are: Set specific but non-restrictive learning goals: it is It is important to know the specific standards, benchmarks and learning supports that students are expected to learn at school. When setting goals, they should be stated on the learning objectives, not on the activity or task you are expected to complete. They must complete the task according to what students should know, understand or be able to do. Communicate learning goals to students and parents: Communicating goals helps students focus on what they need to learn. Even when they communicate goals to parents, they are able to understand and engage in what their children are learning.

I liked the idea that students can personalize learning objectives because they can find relevant and real-world applications of what they are learning. Additionally, by setting personal learning goals, students can take control of their own learning. In this competitive world, students are expected to think further and step outside of their comfort zone, because they will need these skills throughout their elementary school through grade 12, into college, and into their adult life..
