My Academic Goals For Humanities


1.One of my first goals that I have set for myself is to try to use at least three of the habits of mind. I really think that this could help me succeed more in the semester because since we saw the TED talk on, Are Schools Killing Creativity? This made me think a lot about how I could be as creative as I want to be since the habits of mind have different kind of skills that make me grow and expand what I can do with my creativeness and my own personal skills in school.

2.The second goal that I will like to set for myself for this semester in humanities is to work on my writing skills and write more than a page when it comes to a 15 minute WEX. I would like to use more of the things that I have learned in the last semester so I could apply it to my writing more often and also add in the new things that I will be learning this semester. My writing will improve and get more visual from the readers perspective.

3.The last goal that I will be setting for myself this semester is to try to stay focused as possibly as I can. Sometimes I can get off task really easily for the littlest things like for instance I talk a lot with my friends and socialize pretty much. I want to try to stay focused so that later on I won’t be asking questions for the things that have been taught already. I think that this can also help me with turning my work on time because sometimes we can work outside of the classroom and Charlotte gives us that opportunity to work on our homework and to turn it in on time. But sometimes I get off task and that affects me in my late work so I set this goal for me to stay on task.
