SMART goals section missing
The Personal finance and money management (FL B.E.S.T.) course begins discussing SMART goals in Unit 3 during the "How to create a financial plan with short, medium, and long term goals" section - as if you already know what a SMART goal is - without ever explaining a SMART goal. Not only this but also the goals mentioned aren't exactly SMART goals. They are missing the Why for the (S)pecific part of the acronym, the (M)easurable part of the acronym should show the goal broken down into monthly savings that break down the total goal into an (A)chievable plan, and also are missing the (R)elevant part of the acronym which would tie it to why it is important to us on a personal level. I would recommend adding a short section between this section and the previous just going over the SMART acronym, why it can help, with some examples and maybe ask the student to create their own SMART goal for any length of goal.
