Detailed explanation-1: -Proximal goals are short-term goals that can be achieved sooner rather than later. They also tend to be more detailed and specific. An example of a proximal goal would be passing an exam at the end of the module.
Detailed explanation-2: -Proximal goals are objectives that are attainable in a fairly short time. For example, studying a page in the textbook may be considered a proximal goal.
Detailed explanation-3: -A short-term goal is something you want to accomplish soon. A short term goal is a goal you can achieve in 12 months or less.
