1. Start with the end goal: What is the date of the exam? What is your home improvement project finish date? 2. Make a list of tasks: Come up with a list of tasks needed to accomplish your goal. For exams, write a list of units or topics covered on the exam. Then make note of your study tools. For example, did the teacher provide a review sheet? Can you use the unit tests and quizzes to study? Can you use your study guides from each unit to prepare? 
This is the time of year when we get organized: desks, school supplies, backpacks, lockers... it can be a bit overwhelming. Where do we even begin?

Consider how much “stuff” you like to have on your desk. Do you like it clean and completely cleared off? Do you like to have things out where you can see them? There’s no right answer. This is about knowing yourself and what supports your work and helps you to focus.

Attending a lot of Zoom calls these days? It's the worst when your internet has an unstable connection... you miss what people are saying, images freeze, they can't hear you, and you might even get kicked out of the meeting!
A simple thing that has helped me tremendously has been investing in an ethernet cable. Instead of using wifi, I instead plug my computer directly into the router box using the cable. This has made an incredible positive difference in both my productivity and the quality of my online meetings. Because I have a mac laptop, I also had to purchase an Apple USB Ethernet Adaptor. |
