SETTING SMART GOALS FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS

Abstract

This article discusses how important it is for university students to set SMART goals to achieve academic success. Goal setting theory and modern research on performance show that those who set goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant to the student’s learning, and have a clear deadline are more motivated, plan their time properly, and progress consistently throughout the learning process. The article emphasizes how students should set clear goals, reduce procrastination, and constantly monitor their results. Along with this, advice is also provided on how to effectively use smart goals in your daily training process.
