My SMART Goal for the class is to be as physically and mentally present in class, to the utmost of my ability. For the semester, I will make it a goal of mine to not limit my expectations. In order to achieve these goals, I can practice mindfulness and learn how to manage my timebetter. This will enable me to achieve them.
One of the student learning outcomes that I am looking forward to is classifying rock samples. I am excited to challenge myself and learn some of the most common varieties of the rock family. I have always been fascinated by rocks, minerals, and crystals from this planet mainly because my grandfather has always brought them around to show my siblings and me. I know that not all materials/elements found in various rocks and crystals come from the earth. That is what I find most fascinating and why I am excited about this semester.
