Personal Goal Setting - Goal Setting Tools from MindTools. Planning to Live Your Life Your Way Learn how to set effective personal goals.
Many people feel as if they're adrift in the world. They work hard, but they don't seem to get anywhere worthwhile. A key reason that they feel this way is that they haven't spent enough time thinking about what they want from life, and haven't set themselves formal goals. After all, would you set out on a major journey with no real idea of your destination? Goal setting is a powerful process for thinking about your ideal future, and for motivating yourself to turn your vision of this future into reality. The process of setting goals helps you choose where you want to go in life. Flashcard Machine - Create, Study and Share Online Flash Cards. New Version of Blooms Taxonomy for iPad.

Books a teenage boy should read. Sean Power by SEAN POWER As a young fella, no matter how much my Mum tried to convince me, reading just wasn’t cool.
I was happy living in a world filled with computer games and blockbuster-movies. But as I got older and thanks to a few good English teachers, I discovered that books weren’t all that bad. Looking back it sounds stupid. I learned that books could teach you about things that others wouldn’t talk about. I’ve already written on Mamamia about how one author helped me grab adolescence by the gut and take control. What was starting to feel like a rocky road, quickly became more manageable, thanks to reading the words written by an older Aussie bloke who’d already been there and done that.
I’ve since been searching libraries and bookstores to find other books that I wish I’d read as a teenager. Below is the list of six books I reckon every Aussie male teenager (fifteen years old and over) should own. Mums – all it needs it a gentle push. And why not make it a competition? 1. 2. 3. 2012 Conference, islPAL Conference, islPAL International Society on Leadership in Pedagogies and Learning.

Welcome to the ACARA update. The Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) plans to release the draft senior secondary Australian Curriculum in 14 subjects for English, Mathematics, Science and History for public consultation from late April to early July 2012.
The curriculum developed by ACARA for 14 subjects will include content and achievement standards that will provide the basis for greater consistency in what is to be taught in senior secondary years of schooling. The focus for consultation will be on whether the proposed curriculum content and achievement standards represent what young Australians should have the opportunity to learn in the senior years of schooling. Once approved, the national curriculum will be available for integration into state and territory courses which will also include additional information, guidelines and rules that meet local assessment and certification requirements.

Topic-focused study? A consistent learning environment? All are exactly opposite the best strategies for learning. Really, I recently had the good fortune to interview Robert Bjork, director of the UCLA Learning and Forgetting Lab, distinguished professor of psychology, and massively renowned expert on packing things in your brain in a way that keeps them from leaking out. Here's what he said. First, think about how you attack a pile of study material. Instead of making an appreciable leap forward with yourserving ability after a session of focused practice, interleaving forces you to make nearly imperceptible steps forward with many skills. There’s one caveat: Make sure the mini skills you interleave are related in some higher-order way. And again, these tips generalize.
