1. Revisiting and Reflecting on my Goal: A Plan to Own My Shift
Making Goals as i move towards being an independent learner

2. Below is a Reminder of how to Access the learner profile:
If you are starting at the UGMS website, click on Site Shortcuts for Students.
Scroll down and click on Learner Profile (list is in alphabetical order).
You should be able to sign in with your Henry County name and password (just like your computer, etc.).
Once you are in LP, click on the Learning Personal Plan tab.
Make sure you are in the current school year.

3. IF YOU HAVE NOT LOADED A GOAL INTO THE LEARNER PROFILE YET, PLEASE USE THE DIRECTIONS ON THIS SLIDE TO DO SO. LAST MONTH WE LOADED OUR GOAL TO BE AN INDEPENDENT LEARNER (EX: NO MISSING ASSIGNMENTS, REQUESTING TO RETEST, ETC).
Please, follow the directions → to add your goal to the LP. Most of your answers should be on your goal sheet that you already completed in advisory. 

4. When students have a goal in the learner profile they need to revisit it and reflect on a regular basis. This first goal is due the first semester, so it is time to reflect, if they have not already. 
Students should not create a new goal, but click on a goal already existing. They can choose EDIT (the pencil). It could look something like this. IF they see this box, they should click on the + by the REFLECTIONS tab.

5. Topic : Independent Learner Goal
Students should review their description and then click in their reflection box. Prompts that they could respond to:
Am I making progress on my goal? If yes, how? If no, why?
If yes, how will I know when I have made my goal?
If no, what will I add to my plan or do differently to make my goal by December?
Who can I ask for help or celebrate with?
Any thoughts/reflections that student wants to add about their progress.

6. Here is what the reflection box looks like. Be sure to save! 

7. Congratulations! You just reflected on your goal towards being a stronger independent learner!
Remember your steps to achieve your goal. Revisit them weekly to be sure you remember and make it happen. Your advisor will be discussing your goals with you over the year. You might also be using the LP when you conference with your parents this year. 

8. Extra time?
If your advisor gives permission, students that finish early could take the Habits and Dispositions surveys on the LP. They are brief. There are 24 multiple choice on the Habits and about 8 questions on the dispositions survey.
An alternative, if crunched for time, is to enjoy a discussion about the goals. Invite students to share out about progress or request ideas as to how best achieve the next shift in their independent learning.
Work on any advisory activities that your class needs to catch up on.
