Post 2

In the last post one of the skills I stressed most was organization. To be successful in a hybrid class it is extremely important to be oragnized with all of your assignments, due dates, and class meetings (which are limited). In this post I have listed several ways to improve your organization. I also attached a link to a video that shows a couple more tips.

1. Organize your space...
Where you work is important to your success in a class. If you have a messy work space you probably wont be able to complete assignments on time. You will either lose them or they will fall to the bottom of a pile of other assignments. Keep the area where you work free of clutter. Also, keep a calendar of important events/ tasks in plain view in your improved workspace.

2. Order assignments...
Keep your assignments as orderly as possible. When your assignments are arranged in a list or stack make sure its chronologically! It is easy to slip up in a class that requires independent participation so allow yourself to stay on schedule. The many different due dates demands you to stay on top of your game.

3. Keep a calendar...
The new calendar that is a result of the first two steps is critical for higher achievement. Before I had a calendar I was not able to keep track of everything I had to do. Because your hybrid class is not the only thing in your life you have to keep track of, be prepared to fill up a large calendar with things to do.
