Sometimes, I was running out of time to work on my homework. Sometimes, I needed more time to do my assignments. Sometimes, it took more time than I expected. I never thought it would be obstacles to my studying. I forgot one thing...and that was I never did my work in priorities order. This became a motivation to choose "Ranking Priorities". To solve my problem, I've used this strategy for my two courses, CLS 105 and MAT 194, this week.
CLS 105 has a lot of work to do this week, which includes Faculty Interview Project, TECH #2: Problem Solving, and another strategy to use for problem solving. So, I wanted to use the strategy to this course. First, I created a list of every assignment. Second, I ranked them by groups. Third, I started with A tasks and each in order. Finally, I moved on to other homework in order. As you see the picture for this, TECH assignment is a group A, for its due date is coming up the first. I specified all of work that are included in this course this week such as using the strategy for two courses, taking pictures of them, rough draft for Faculty Project, Final draft for Faculty Project, and etc. The effectiveness of this strategy is to accomplish assignments that is due first, which has saved my time this week. I've got a more free time than last week. I really regret that why I didn't use this way to study before or earlier.
MAT 194 also has a big amount of work. Same as CLS105, it also has a project to do, which is a lab report. I followed the same strategy as CLS 105. First, I created a list of all assignment. Second, I ranked them in order. Third, I started with tasks in an aphabetical order. Lastly, I moved on other assignments in order. I did Webassign homework first because it is due first, then started the lab report. Actually, the lab report is due on this Thursday, so I can still work on, but I feel I did 70% out of 100. The effectiveness of this strategy is to save my time for big assignments. This lab is the second one, and I didn't manage my time well for the first one. I did the first lab one day before the due date, which was kind of crazy and I suffered from my time.
But, it is not any more for this time. I feel very satisfied and proud of managing my time more wisely this time.
Ranking Priorities is the best strategy so far in my opinion since it has saved my time the most. What I'm grateful the most is that I've saved my time for the projects which require more effort and time.
I like how you applied the strategies to specific classes. I also thought it ranking priorities strategy was beneficial. I was able to accomplish some things after I put my things to do in order of importance.
