How to Stay on Top of SAVS or a Virtual Class
The Southern African Virtual School can be overwhelming. From exams to quizzes to Discussion Based Assignments it can be a very daunting task! Here are some helpful hints to staying on top of your work.
Steps
1. Don't get too overwhelmed. SAVS supplies pace charts, use them! Do the amount of work a week your pace chart says, and you'll be fine. If something seems too difficult you can always skip it for now and come back to it later.
2. If you really aren't understanding an assignment or a concept contact your teacher! Your teacher is only there to help, if you have any question email them. If you still don't understand ask them to clarify. And if your teacher isn't helping you at all tell SAVS, they only want teachers who will aid you in every way you need.
3. Stay focused. Being on a computer all day can be very distracting. To help set up a 45:15 break time, research has shown the human brain has a limited prime-time of focus. 45 minutes is the approximate amount of focus time, so work for 45 minutes and take a 15 minute break. During this time do whatever you want to, but as soon as your 15 minutes is over, work!
4. Play some music. If you just can't stand the quiet play music, don't turn it up too loud making it a distraction. Music has shown to increase focus when paired with work of any kind.
5. Think positive thoughts. People all the time will tell you to think of all the bad things that will happen if you don't complete your work. This method however simply does not work! This usually does not motivate people in any way, so try to think of the good that will happen when your work is turned in, you can even make a list. For example you could write: My parents will be happier with me. I will have more free time. My thoughts won't be centered around school all of the time.
6. Motivate yourself. Tell yourself things like: "I can do this, I'm smart, I can finish this in no time, this is too easy to push off." Keeping yourself up-lifted will improve your focus 100%.
7. Do. Don't 'try' to do your work, DO your work. You either do it, or you don't.
