For this assignment, you will work on setting goals for yourself using the SMART method. You will find an explanation of
this method in the module that will guide you in your goal-setting process. You will list a minimum of five professional goals
that you would like to accomplish during the clinical experience in this term. For each goal, you must provide an
explanation of how the goal is representative of each of the SMART characteristics: Specific, Measurable, Attainable,
Realistic, Timely. Be sure to answer the following questions for each goal summary: Can you measure it? Is it attainable? Is
it realistic? What is the time frame you have set for completing that goal?
Format: Each goal summary should be at least 100 words – totaling 500 words for this assignment (added to the speaker
notes). The presentation is original work and logically organized, formatted, and cited in the current APA style, including
citation of references. The presentation should consist of 10-15 slides (excluding the introduction and reference page).
