موضوع: STUDY SKILLS TIP 47 – SWOT ANALYSIS الأحد يونيو 08, 2014 8:30 pm
Reflecting on Triumphs and Tribulations
With the end of the year fast approaching it is a good time for students to reflect on their approach to school this year. If students wait until next year they will have forgotten what they did this year and what they need to change for next year. So as the holidays approach, students should take a moment to do a short SWOT analysis on their personal approach to school and learning. Students may like to discuss these questions with a teacher, parent or friend.
STRENGTHS:
What did you do well at school this year? What subjects or topics were you good at? What worked for you in your approach to learning? What are you proud of achieving? What new skills did you develop? WEAKNESSES:
What were your greatest challenges in achieving your personal best at school? What did you find difficult this year? What skills do you feel needed more work? What areas of your approach did you struggle with? When did you feel not confident about your ability to succeed? OPPORTUNITIES:
What could you do to build your strengths and deal with your weaknesses? Who did you encounter this year that might be able to help you on this journey? What will be different about next year that will create opportunities to change? What could you personally do differently in your approach to school next year? What one thing could you change that would make the biggest difference to you being a more effective learner? THREATS:
What are the biggest obstacles to you making changes in your approach? Are there other students you sit with who make learning difficult? What is stopping you from achieving the top marks you are capable of achieving? What challenges do you face in staying motivated to do your work for school? What challenges do you face in managing distractions and procrastination? A note to Parents: In these school holidays it is important for students to have a decent break , recharge and spend time with friends and family doing things they enjoy. Certainly if students are weak in areas such as literacy or numeracy, some practice on a regular basis over the holidays would not go astray. There are many apps listed on the study skills handbook site that are useful (android apps now available too!) and bookshops and libraries also have workbooks. It is essential however that Year 11 students spend some time these school holidays consolidating the work from Year 11, ensuring study notes are up to date and they are organised and prepared for the challenges ahead in Year 12.
