Grand Canyon University Realistic Goal Setting Discussion

Description Setting goals can be a powerful resource for students when applied properly. By setting goals and achieving the goals, students can build their self-esteem, delight in themselves, and have a sense of well-being. In order for goal setting to be successful, steps need to be followed. For this assignment, review the following case scenario: Rob is an eighth grader who asks to see you to discuss his choices for high schools for the following year. When you pull up Rob’s grades, you notice that he is doing well in many of his core classes, except math. When you meet with Rob, he tells you that he wants to attend the local high school that you know requires higher math scores than what he currently has. In a 500-750 word plan include the following: How you plan to learn more about Rob’s skills, abilities, and future plans. Propose an agenda for a college and career counseling session that includes developmentally appropriate and realistic goals that support Rob’s success as a student. How you would collaborate with Rob, his family, school staff, and administration to set realistic goals that demonstrate school counseling skills. Discuss the ethics involved in the conversation and the compassion that should be shown to the student. Address how the “Disposition of Curiosity” found in the “Professional Dispositions of Learners” applies to this case scenario and topic of goal setting.
