Abstract

This study looked at the impact goal setting had on student engagement, self-efficacy, and academic achievement. The study included teacher observations, student self-surveys, study habits monitoring, and analysis of academic achievement. The goal was to see if having students set and monitor their progress towards achieving a goal would have an effect on their engagement, subsequently their achievement and self-efficacy. The study found that setting goals had a positive impact on student engagement in the classroom.
