In-class Work Habits
The in-class work habits I could improve on are staying on
task. I am not the type of person to do long time consuming tasks that are
easy. I would rather have something that is difficult and challenges me but doesn’t
take up a lot of my time. If the work isn’t challenging me then I don’t really
see the point in it so I get off task. I guess the best way to put it is I get
bored. That’s way my out-class work habits are bad as well.
If the teacher
gives us homework there is always one thing in my mind that is holding me back
from doing it. It is that I don’t believe in homework. I know that sounds like
a “teenage lazy procrastinator” but there is two things that make me feel this
way. The first thing that I have come to learn is that we have to go through
six other classes in the same day and learn something new every hour
practically. By the time we get home we won’t remember all the steps necessary
to do the homework, and since we are at our home we can’t raise our hand and
ask the teacher. Home is the place where
you should be able to go and relax, do chores, talk to your parents, or maybe
is things aren’t well at home you need to be out all night at a job. I know
people say you can make time for it but there really isn’t a point to having
homework. It is a reason to see if you can “do it on your own,” when in order
to see this; a teacher just has to give out classwork and let you do it on your
own. The second reason I don’t believe in homework is that it is just work that
is time consuming. It doesn’t teach you anything new and you do that same thing
you did in the class but at your home.
