four elements –mastery approach, performance approach, mastery avoidance, and performance avoidance [20].This paper uses the mastery approach goal that is absolute and positive. A mastery goal is aimedat you becoming a master at something and not becoming a top performer based on someextrinsic measures. So instead of trying to get an “A” in a course on innovation, you innovate inreal life and add value to appropriate stakeholders. This ensures that your satisfaction or self-worth does not depend on external indicators, which may be beyond your control.Locke and Latham have evidences of goals increasing performances in more than 100 differenttasks involving more than 40,000 participants in eight countries while working in laboratory,simulation

Any accreditation process will incur both fixed (those costs not controlled bythe institution, e.g., accreditation fees paid to the accrediting body) and variable costs (thosecosts controlled by the institution, e.g., consultants or internal costs of the accreditation team’sefforts or laboratory improvements). ASEAN institutions often face significant costs in bothareas as a culture of accreditation often is not present. There are relatively few programsaccredited by either ABET or AUN within the ASEAN system, so many do not have experiencewith the costs of either system. However, the less common ABET accreditation is widelyperceived as much more expensive. This

This could include a minimum of three Scottish Highers, A-Levelsalongside the Welsh Baccalaureate, the IB.”2In order for this mechanism to be meaningful, there must be consistency in the teaching of, andawarding of, A-Levels across the schools of the UK. Consistency is supposed to be controlledby the OFfice of STandards in EDucation (OFSTED).3 OFSTED inspects and assesses publicschools. They generally give a school a 24 hour notice before descending on the facility andinvading its classrooms, laboratories, and offices. Such
