The 30 Goals Challenge for Teachers: Small Steps to Transform Your Teaching. 30goals.com. Shelly Terrell. …especially for TEACHers heading into… The New Year is “nigh”…and my inbox has been filling up with notifications to check out the latest “Top 10 List of 2012″ and…a few, just a few, posts on best practice in “goal-setting” for 2013. I say only a “few” posts on goals and targets because…well, it seems more than a few of us are more interested in “looking back” than “looking forward”.
Maybe, that’s all part of the “quiet reflection” needed to get us to the “effective action” that Peter Drucker (and Shelly Terrell) were talking about this morning. Both Shelly and Uncle Pete are right – we can all “grow through REFLECTion”… …it is “looking forward” and the “effective action” we plan for 2013 that is the key. This is why I was so keen to look at these posts on “goal setting” – especially, all that “SMART goal-setting” EDUfolk are talking about.
Now, if you are not up-to-speed on goal-setting – it’s all about PLANNING. Horrid word! …while also reminding us that: Funny that! Am I really? “Busyness?”
