Prioritize--do what
is "due" first
If you have a problem
completing an assignment, contact your professor, TA, or other students
in class before it's due. Don't expect a professor to be understanding
if you arrive at class without your homework.
If you wait too long and run into a problem, it is your problem. Homework
is your responsibility.
Get a notebook for
each class.
If you finish your
homework for the next day, look ahead and get a start on the next assignment.
"Big Projects" (i.e., papers)
- Get your research done early.
- Don't procrastinate.
- If you have trouble (i.e., not enough on topic) ask your professor.
- Back up your work.
- If you saved your work on the hard drive, put it on a disc.
- Print out a hard copy once you complete a large part of the paper (i.e,
when you take a break).
- Save periodically while typing, i.e., auto save.
- Have someone else read/proof your work.
