For Students
Procrastination Can Impede Success for Online High School
Procrastination can bite all of us in the behind from time to time, but it is a pitfall that does exist for students involved in free online school at home. Procrastination basically just means that you put off or avoid doing something that is required. Where it negatively impacts education is that students find themselves trying to cram in completing their work at the last minute, and don’t give themselves enough time to do quality work.
How to Prevent Procrastination From Stealing Your Success
One thing students can do that they will certainly enjoy is to work on a reward system. When students do quality work and complete a task on time, reward yourself! What do you love? Gaming? Ice cream? Whatever motivates you, reward yourself for your success. Read more online school success tips.
