让我们面对它......我们已经完成了它。拖延是一个对专业人士和学校学生的阴险的野兽。然而,当你的孩子坐在HSC时,处理这种拖延的习惯很重要。
There’s actually pretty good scientific backing to explain为什么我们拖延。有时我们有一个未实现的恐惧失败,或者我们没有明确的目标,所以我们被贬低了。其他时候,我们只是累了,缺乏能量。
Good news! We have five ways that you can help your child excel in their study time and make the most out of Year 12.

Tip #2: Implement a Rewards System
Tip #3: Restrict Internet Access
Tip #4: Create Smart Checklists
提示#5:鼓励小组学习
提示#1:使用pomodoro方法

我们的第一个提示是一项经过验证和真实的研究黑客。The Pomodoro Method was invented by Francesco Cirillo back in the 80s as a way to break study into small intervals(Pomodoro意味着意大利语中的番茄,以Cirillo的计时器的形状命名!)。
这种技术有效breaking down immediate tasks and then splitting them into 25 minute sections, with 5 minute breaks in between.
如果您的孩子填写了大笔文章,他们可能会每25分钟进行一段。这种方法可用于在几个小时内完成一些短的东西,或作为膳食和锻炼的较大突破的所有日常生活(加上偶尔的电话滚动)。
One important element of the Pomodoro Method is thatyour child’s phone and any other distracting equipment should be moved away.They may still procrastinate, but it will be by doing sweet nothing.
You can find a really good tutorial of this method这里!

作为父母,它可能会对您的孩子们提出良好的学习习惯而挑战,而不会看似过霸道。你可以建议庞多洛方法是你听说过的东西,可以处理拖延,甚至是你自己用过的东西!
提示#2:实现奖励系统
Remember the chore charts you likely made your child when they were younger? Perhaps you incentivised them with a new doll, some lollies, or a trip out. This technique works in quite the same way, albeit more sophisticated.
第一的,与您的孩子交谈,他们需要在指定的时间范围内实现的目标是什么。Make this time tangible — perhaps it’s a week, maybe it’s just a couple of days.
You may both have different expectations about what is achievable, so it is important to compromise and see that your child doesn’t feel too overwhelmed.
一旦设定了工作量,就会开始乐趣!让你的孩子选择一个他们真正爱的活动。对于小型任务,就像完成两小时的学习一样,它可能正在观看他们最喜欢的Netflix展。更大的任务或时间框架可能涉及到城市的旅行,去看电影,或者买一些他们喜欢的衣服。
与您的孩子合作“赚取乐趣”是一种避免拖延的好方法,并看到所有重要的工作都完成了!
你怎么能帮助?
Many well-intentioned parents set grade goals for their children and reward them based on these.You may know that your child is more than capable of getting higher marks than they currently are. They may be stressed, very busy or simply being a little lazy.
However,为职业道德奖励它们是更有利的。这是两倍的原因。
第一的,如果您的孩子努力工作,他们可能会获得最佳标记(and you should be proud of that!).
Additionally,your child is more likely to feel long-term benefits for their work if you encourage their effort.研究表明,短期回报s can ruin the internal incentive that students feel and may decrease ownership over work.
因为这一切,似乎有奖励的职业道德是去的方式!
Tip #3: Restrict internet access (temporarily)
One of the biggest procrastination temptations is aimless scrolling.
这是我们所有人所做的事情。您在工作时间内有多久以有趣的视频结束?如果您的孩子喜欢观看YouTube视频或Tiktoks,网上购物,或者在网上的其他任何其他方面,他们可能最终会分散注意力的网站,而不会意识到它。
帮助他们处理拖延,your child can block websites for certain periods of time using自我控制(Mac)或Cold Turkey(个人电脑)。他们也可以put their phone on Aeroplane mode避免分心。改变拖延周围的物理参数可以是确保以有效的方式完成工作的最佳步骤之一!
与Pomodoro方法一起使用时,这种技术也非常有用, because there are very limited ways that your child can stray from work within that 25 minute period.
你怎么能帮助?
Like all of these tips,重要的是,您鼓励您的孩子在没有告知他们如何管理他们的学习时间。Of course, each student is different. Some may need a lot of guidance or some strict rules to get themselves into study mode. Others will be pretty good at self-initiating.
不管,chatting to your child and to a couple of key teachers to find what may work best can be a great way of being helpful to your child’s HSC progression,没有霸道。如果他们对他们的工作感到自治,他们总是会尽力而为。
Tip #4: Create Smart Checklists
Welcome to my favourite thing in this academic world — to-do lists!
For some students,this will be the golden point to staying on track and getting everything done.
第一步很简单 -学生在手机或笔记本电脑上创建一个列表。Some children may also enjoy using online organisation systems likeAsana.要么格雷洛。
通过使用其中一个网站,students might even divide up their work by subject, colour-coding and moving it into a different box once completed。These can be kept very simple, or used to their full extent with sub-folders for each area of work.有些学生喜欢在日记中创建手写名单!
智能清单的第二步是有效地订购工作。越来越小,但首先可以帮助学生专注于更大的项目。将重新分为大小的部分,并为每个任务创建时间框架将有助于保持轨道。通过这样做,学生将培养更具体的目标来实现和实现。
The final, and by far most satisfying part, is to tick off completed tasks!制定我们可以越过的具体计划eliminate work anxiety and give us big feelings of satisfaction.
查看我们称为“块”的技术,用于划分任务以使工作更加可实现!

One practical thing you can do ispurchase your child a good diary。I’ve bought the same linen-bound journal from定制遗产for several years, and it always makes me feel satisfied to be making lists in a book I love.
您可以查看类似的精品店,或者在拼写错误和OfficeWorks等地方。
Tip #5: Encourage group study
建议您的孩子邀请一些朋友在群体学习会议上。
This may sound counter-productive to curbing procrastination, but在一个团体中学习可以有键动机福利for students。By working with productive students, they can clarify things they find confusing, match the work pace of their friends, and ultimately get stuff done.
你怎么能帮助?
Let your child know that you’re open to the idea of them studying with others!Offer to buy some snacks and make your home a welcoming environment for their friends. They’ll likely get lots of work done whilst having a great time.
And that’s it!
At the end of the day, procrastination is something we all deal with.Hopefully these tips can help your child achieve their best in HSC by limiting wasted time and essentially stop them from procrastinating study.
You know your child, so you know what techniques are likely to help them best! Keep pushing through and trying new things with them.
