Organising your homework and assignments is very important. Use our Assignment Planner to help you do this. This sheet allows you to plan six pieces of work over a four week period. Fill in the details for each assignment and then rate each one in terms or its importance and its urgency. Remember that important and urgent are not the same thing. If you rate an assignment as both urgent and important then you should prioritise this assignment first - add in some work time to the calendar. If you have estimated 3 hours to complete it, you can add three one hour slots to the calendar for example.
