what one wants to be and become as an adult.
Adolescents initiate identity work as they begin to think about their competencies and attributes,
academic and occupational goals, and personal beliefs.
School and peers are important social contexts where much identity work occurs.

Possible selves are influenced by social, cultural and historical contexts that surround the individual and function to generate feelings of
a) competence (when a goal is attained),
b) self-efficacy (beliefs about one’s personal competence in mathematics), and
b) personal control (what one can do to achieve a hoped-for self).

Possible Selves Theory is a theoretical foundation to promote teachers’ understanding of identity formation—their students’ and their own.
Possible selves are one’s ideas about what one can become in the future.
These perceptions of one’s future self can be highly motivating to students.
When students have clear ideas about what they want to become, they are more willing to put forth the effort needed to attain their goals.

Hoped-for possible selves, in particular, are strong predictors of mathematics achievement.
A hoped-for self that is concrete, realistic, detailed, and invokes necessary strategies for achieving the goal that will guide student behavior and produce the intended results over time (Oyserman & Markus, 1990).

When students feel committed to, and invested in, working towards the attainment of hoped-for selves, and when they connect current behaviors to the accomplishment of future goals, their possible selves serve a self-regulatory role.
Students with a self-regulatory focus are better able to make changes in behavior which can lead to goal achievement.

It is important for students to become self-regulated learners who can
- set learning goals
- create action plans
- then monitor their progress towards their goals
- by assessing their efforts and making adaptations as necessary
