Course Contract Review 2

After reviewing my course contract I wrote at the beginning of the semester, I realized that I have a lot to work on. I think overall I’m doing well at getting my assignments done on time. Especially the study guides. However, I think I could have studied more for the test. I need to work on allowing myself enough time to do well instead of just getting it done.
                I think I’m doing pretty well on my goals. I’ve learned a lot in this class and I think it is preparing me to become a better teacher. The unit of assessments made me re-evaluate how prepared I was. I always thought assessments would be easy but that was not the case at all. However I need to do better in these areas:
1.       Not procrastinating
2.       Prioritizing
3.       Staying Organized
4.       Motivation
These are all areas that I think would help me do better if I worked on them.
                My motivation is definitely lessening as the semester goes on. It’s difficult after you register for next semester’s classes to stay motivated for the classes you are currently taking. I think I’ve shifted to performance goals in a lot of my classes because I just want to pass and move on. I’m not sure exactly how to help my motivation but I know my lack of it is making things much more difficult and stressful.
