Teach Students the Value of Planning
Do you remember when we went to school and how,
occasionally, we had to cram for a test or to cram when we needed to complete a paper?
Students have always crammed.
While some students need to have the pressure of an immediate deadline imposed on them, others suffer under that pressure.
We may need to inform students and parents of the difficulties some students face.
We can help students by suggesting that they begin studying, if possible, a little at a time, 1 week in advance of a test.
This would mean that we have to give them advanced notice of tests.
Regarding long-term projects or term papers, we could ask students to submit outlines and/or first chapters of the projects.
We may also have to set aside class time for students to ask questions so as to get in the right mindset about doing a long-term assignment.
