UTA NURS2300 Week 3 Assessment SMART Goals

INSTRUCTIONS:

Specific                                                 Provide specific details to describe what you want to accomplish.

Measurable                                        How will you know you have achieved your goal? How can your goal be evaluated? (e.g. How much? How often? How many?)

Action-Oriented                               What specific actions or steps will you take to meet your goal?

Realistic                                                Is it a goal that you are actually capable of achieving? Can you really complete this goal? (It is important to be honest with yourself here.)

Timely                                                   Clearly specify a completion date.

Now that we have looked at goal setting as part of the nursing process, as well as some time management and active learning strategies for you as a nursing student, please answer the following questions. You can consider goals in any of these areas: Academic, Professional/Career, Personal, and Financial.
