Reflect on your strengths and areas for growth again to develop a plan moving forward.

Introduction

Critical thinking is an important outcome to master, and it is one you already have, which you have shown in the first two assessments. As a critical thinker, you develop the thinking skills necessary to think independently, initiate action, integrate differing points of view, and develop a process of reasoning. Every time you set a goal, develop a plan, organize something, or prioritize an assessment, that is you using critical thinking to be productive.

Overview

In this course, you have been learning how you can develop problem solving skills, while developing other abilities, like communication, personal and social responsibility, and initiative. Now it’s time to reflect on your strengths and areas for growth again to develop a plan moving forward. For this assessment, you will identify three outcomes that you would like to focus on and develop a plan for. As you think of which outcome you’d like to improve upon, consider choosing abilities at varying levels. You might, for example, choose something that you are already strong in, but would be excited to continue exploring and building upon, as well as an area that you might have more room for growth in. At the end of the assessment, you’ll leave with the beginning of a tangible plan for personal and professional development that you can review with the Career Center team.
