Method

Part 1:

1. Ask participants to look back at the self-evaluations for each unit they have completed, including the final one at the end of this unit. They should note the key words and outcomes that best describe them.
2. Instruct participants to discuss how they see themselves now and what they have learned.
3. Ask participants to complete an evaluation chart–My Personal Learning (handout 1).
4. After they have completed the handout, ask participants to design a map drawing on a sheet of flipchart paper showing their plan of action for the next two weeks that will move them towards accomplishing something they need to work on. Tell them to include any personal motivational triggers and supports within this plan.

Note: A plan of action could be shown in a list, chart, or a map drawing. You can allow the participants to decide what their plan of action will look like on paper.

Part 2:

1. Ask participants to complete the sentences in handout 2–My Strengths, using the words they circled from their previous self-evaluations, including the final one at the end of this unit.
