However, as the thoughts go circles, procrastinations can also have a huge influence on me. Procrastinations will make my quality of homework decrease and hamper the learning efficiency.

If a student procrastinates it can lead to them hurting their grades down the line. Just because a student completes an assignment in time while procrastinating does not mean that the effects of it will not catch up to him down the road. I for one am very bad about procrastinating and will often complete an assignment right before it is due. Several times during high school I found that assignments I completed without procrastinating received higher grades then those I procrastinated on. Nobody wants to have to do homework or study when there is something else they would rather be doing. Even though it can be tough you must do things you might not want to do so you can succeed in life.

Attention is considered to be a core cognitive process, it refers to how people actively process specific information in the environment. Attention refers to how people select from information and stimuli in the environment, facilitating processing of some of the stimuli and inhibiting processing of others. "Everyone knows what attention is, it is the taking possession by the mind in clear and vivid form, of one out of what seem several simultaneously possible objects or trains of thought...It implies withdrawal from some things in order to deal effectively with others, and is a condition which has a real opposite in the confused, dazed, scatterbrained state. “This definition of attention was proposed by psychologist William James (1890). This review will focus on literature that gives explanation to selective attention. Selective attention refers to the process where a person is able to select out of many stimuli and focus on the one they want and ignore other stimuli.

In order to fix this habit, I will look ahead into the course syllabus and begin working on my assignments ahead of time. That way, if I have any questions on the assignment, I can ask them ahead of time and have a clear understanding of the assignment before I get to the deadline. In the past, I’ve had problems with staying ahead on my assignments and end up swamped at the end of the deadline staying up all night finishing an assignment or having questions of how to complete the assignment and not being able to make the best piece of work that I’m capable of. I will start ahead of time even if

What I didn't realize at the time was that procrastinating on my assignments not only made me feel more stressed as time went on, but it also caused me to rush through the writing process, resulting in sloppy workmanship.

When it comes to homework… Do it timely. I know it’s usually not very fun, and Netflix is calling your name, but trust me on this one. I procrastinated and it stressed me out. Fairly, if you do all your schoolwork, the lesson is abruptly calmer. As much as we despise it, homework is there for a reason. Start assignments when you get them. I continuously did assignments the evening beforehand and it’s very demanding, so get them done!

The next reason too much homework is harmful to students is that studies show more homework to cause lower test scores. One to two hours of homework a week does not cause a major change in test scores (Wolchover). There is no evidence of homework having any academic benefit in elementary or middle school, and the academic benefit found in high school is very weak (Kohn). Homework is not shown to help students academically until grades ten through twelve (Wolchover). There is also no proof that homework increases good study habits in students (Kohn).

You never want to wait until the last minute to get it done because it only puts more pressure and stress on you. Manage your time wisely. Managing your time makes a huge impact on not only your studies, but yourself as well. You especially want to manage your time if uou choose

College students have to balance work, family, and college activists and any delaying behavior from within can cause an unbalance. This behavior is called procrastinating and it can lead to problems in many areas of a student’s life. College students are the worst hit by this type of behavior because they have many different activities to focus on instead of studying. These activities can cause students to study when they have time which often is usually too short amount of time. There is a time and place to relax and enjoy life, but if students focus on playing around instead of getting their assignments done, college life will be stressful.

Procrastinating is the bane of most college students, if not all. Statements like “I’ll do it later” or “It’s not due until Monday”, define the poor choice of doing assignments at the last minute. Procrastinating leads up to a constant and looming pressure that builds up and up until the night before, cramming for ideas, which happens all night long, to finish. What are the results of procrastinating? The most accurate answer would be seldom a student’s best work; not performing one’s best work most likely means, the grades would come out the same (awful). Was it really worth it? Not a chance. Procrastinating can lead to distractions blocking the main focus of academic

Attention is defined as “the concentration of awareness on some phenomenon to the exclusion of other stimuli.” (McCallum, 2015) The fact that individuals can focus their attention on certain objects, while simultaneously ignoring irrelevant information so that they can focus on what is important is the theory of selective attention. (Cherry & Gans, “How We Use Selective Attention.” )

They either kept on pushing their homework until the end of the day, or they have done their homework speedily with no revisions on their due date. These kinds of actions are the stepping stones to the unruly temptation of procrastination. Nobody should ever be caught in procrastination if they want a good grade in their school. All the time, students regret by the time they realize that their homework does not take a few minutes to finish. They will regret for their accumulation of dreadful homework; and soon, their work becomes an unpleasant task to complete. About the majority of students are procrastinating, and they have the right to know the negative effects it has on

It is seen as an essential part of learning and using what you learn in class. But when you get loads of class work and have very little time to finish it, then it becomes an unnecessary burden. Yet, sometimes, for me, it is the fact that I procrastinate that prevents me from completing a task. For college student, like myself who is working to pay for college, large amounts of class work usually brings lots of stress and fear of not being able to get good grades in many of my classes. Yet, I have support from my family, friends, and some peers who encourage me to put up a good fight in reaching my goal. I am a student that has gone through so much to get here, where I am. There were times that I had strong feelings that I would never be in college, just because of the negative energy I forced upon myself. Since pre-K, I have had this problem that if I can't do something I just give up, and stop trying. I still have this problem, but I have learned to get a control on it. The biggest problem was graduating from high school. I never thought that I would ever graduate. But I knew, as a student, I should at least try and show my teachers that I am putting effort. And now, I'm in college, studying pre-med, and hoping to become either a pediatrician, or a NFL Doctor.

For the first time ever, we as students are on our own. We determine our own grade, and our own time, which for me was the scariest part of the transition. I’ve always been the type of student who depends on guidelines and due dates to make sure I am on track, and will receive a good grade. For college, most classes involve doing assignments on your own time, and using your past knowledge to know how each one should be done. Although I always found a way to get all of my assignments done, I still was a big procrastinator. College has taught me; procrastination will get you no where. Aside from having no choice, I also made the choice of keeping up on my assignments well before their due dates. I feel like this was a major part of my growing experience. I realized what my priorities need to be, and that when you do them as you should, the reward is much greater. “The best way out is always through.” A quote Mr. Lightcap uses quite often that I will never forget. Whenever I have a feeling that I don’t want to do something, I repeat

Homework never stops for full-time college students. A rule of thumb for college courses is to spend double the time spent in class at home working on class work. For example, I spend fourteen hours a week in class. This means I am required to spend twenty-eight hours a week working on assignments and studying. Full-time college students can easily spend more than forty hours a week on classwork alone. One project, paper, or assignment could easily take two to three hours alone. Speaking from personal experience spending two hours straight on one assignment can easily lead to stress. Students who put off assignments till the last moment are going to get stressed out easier than others. These students have to worry about getting a good grade, finishing the assignment on time, meeting the requirements for the assignment, and turning in the assignment on time. Homework is the number one cause of stress on a full time college students.
