TAKING STEPS TO BUILD SELF-AWARENESS FOR COLLEGE SUCCESS

12/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Self-awareness is a critical aspect in college success for any student, but particularly for students with learning differences.  When a student is aware of their strengths and challenges, the student is then able to advocate for his or her needs when faced with a difficult situation.  Self-awareness comes easier for some students than others, and many are self aware in certain areas but not others.  For example, a student might realize that math is not a strength and is able to ask for help when needed.  But the same student might not realize that they struggle with time management and not ask for help when a long term project is assigned.  
The high school years are a good time for students to build their self-awareness, and then take this self-awareness and practice communicating to others as needed.  This worksheet is a good start for students, but it is just a start.  Building skills for independence takes practice and repetition over time, with tasks evolving as students mature.  But it is a place to start.
