I have just come across two web tools that would be great to use when getting students to set goals. FutureMe is a web tool that lets you write an email to your future self and have it delivered to your inbox at a time you schedule ( at least 30 days in the future). Teachers are also able to subscribe to be administrators so that a class can have its own portal and unique email address. Teachers would be able to see letters submitted and resend letters etc.
Remind2me is similar to FutureMe except it doesn't offer a public gallery of letters,which is a good thing. However, with Future M , if teachers haven't set up a unique student space, students can always click on the private button when sending their emails.
They would be great tools to use at the start of the year, having students set learning goals for the year and then reflecting on what they have written at a later date.
For more information or to subscribe, click on the images above.
