Deadlines, ARGGH

http://wonderopolis.org/wonder/why-are-they-called-deadlines
  1. It was first used during the civil war for the prisoners that couldn't cross. then journalists used it for the meaning it is now, a time or date which something should be done with.
  2. For this class if you don't complete something it goes in as a missing and brings down your grade. you can fix your grade but the more work you miss the more it gathers up.
  3. there are some class assignments that I forget to turn in or don't complete. some classes still let you turn it in for a 100 but others take 10 points for every day its late.
  4. Last six weeks i did miss deadlines on a regular basis but i tried to get my work done this six weeks. I believe i was unfocused and didn't have my priorities straight.
  5. I was just really distracted.
  6. Stay motivated to getting it done and try to keep distractions away.

  1. probably the to do list because i always forget things i need to do. also the dedicate study time because i always check my phone here and there and get sidetracked and don't finish the things i need to.
  2. Budgeting my time, i have a really awkward schedule and can't really plan something a week ahead just because i'm not sure i'll even be home at that time.
  3. night person. I'm not really not sure if i have a "study time", i mean sometimes when its late at night i want to do something productive but i cant stay up every night to study or ill lose sleep.
  4. i can try and set a time everyday to just sit down and put my phone away to do my work.
  5. Put my phone out of reaching distance, tell anyone in the house that i'm busy.
  1. Yes because you have to plan how long it will take you to do your homework do you'll know when to start.
  2. quiet or music playing in the background.
  3. my phone and other people like my mom or sister.
  4. put my phone out of reaching distance and tell my mom and sister that i have to get things done before i do anything else.
