SMART Goals

Take the goal you set for yourself for being a peer mentor and expand on it, use it in the context of SMART goals and the four M’s. Maybe discuss what some of your other goals for being a peer mentor are. 


This was the blogging prompt for this last week, my goal for being a peer mentor over the next year was to know the names and counties of each of my students by the end of the Fall semester.  I will take this goal and break it down into SMART goals.


Specific- it has two main points that I have to meet knowing the names and counties of my students.
Measurable- because I will either know them or I wont.
Attainable- I can accomplish it.
Relevant- it will benefit the effect I have on my students.
Time Limited- it has a limit by the end of the next semester.


I have always had trouble with remembering names so this goal is something I really need to work on so I used it as my SMART goal.  The other goals I have are to make a difference in the college careers of my students.  This goal is a good one, but its not a SMART goal.
