Trang: I use a calendar to plan my work ahead. At the beginning of each term, I take a broad view of what I have to do by entering the due dates and test dates into a calendar. I often do these with different colours, for example, red for deadlines, green for exams …
Phong: I try to minimise distractions. Besides cell phones, social media, and friends, there are a lot of activities that can take my attention away from my schoolwork. When it’s time to start my work, I turn off my cell phone and sign out of social media accounts.
Tom: I never leave homework until the day before it’s due. I review my projects and coming tests and add them to my schedule. I arrange to start working on them well before they’re due, so I’m not stressed out to meet the due dates.
