Purposeful, Transparent, Contextual, Building Expertise
Purposeful and Transparent
Goal setting is an important part of orientation and goals are a tool students can use to track their progress.

Contextual
Goals are based on what students identify as important in their lives and can be used both inside and outside of the classroom.

Building Expertise
Students start with past successes to plan future successes. Students refine their goals. Students get experience with brainstorming, organization, working collaboratively, writing, revising, and editing.
