什么是拖延？
在进行进一步之前，我们需要了解拖延的实际是什么。Procrastination.comvisualises this phenomenon as一堆任务，全部整齐地完成了完成，然后在最新可能的时间被卡住了一个大活动球。
Instead of working on what you should be doing,you complete minor tasks and find alternate activities.
There areseveral reasonswhy students (and, let’s face it, adults too) procrastinate. Often it’s because we恐惧失败并想避免任务。It can also bea means of winning back some control over our day and doing things the way we want to do it.
Now that we understand what procrastination is, it’s time to help your child stop procrastinating study!
Here’s our 7 simple steps:
Step #1: Schedule the week
学生拖延的最大原因之一是因为they don’t know what to do next!
Coming home from school and having to decide on the afternoon’s activities can add unneeded stress. It also means您的孩子完全依靠自己的自我控制，这可能是有问题的，作为他们self-control isn’t always great。
反而，propose that your child has a consistent schedule that they follow week-to-week.帮助他们的计划,所以他们的日子作表语用table and therefore more achievable.
每周时间表应考虑的事情是：
-
- 每个主题的固定学习时间（包括该周中需要涵盖的任何特定内容）
- Eight hours of sleep a night
- 每周至少两次与朋友进行社交并保持联系
- Regular exercise (at least60 minutes a day)
- 停机时间完成活动的兴趣
- A bit of ‘buffer’ time, just in case something goes wrong throughout the week
通过有时间表您的孩子应该更倾向于学习，因为如果他们不这样做，他们会看到有形的损害。It also means that as a parent, you can be on top of how your child is progressing, which will help you to support them better.
Step #2: Work to specific deadlines
This suggestion is similar to the one above, in that it acknowledges the need for structure as a way to minimise procrastination.
帮助您的孩子在一定时间内完成一定程度的学习（例如练习考试或论文）。在计时器上放一个，以便大家都知道应该完成的内容。
这是一个简单而有效的提示creates a clear goal for your child to work towards.It also increases motivation. You can check out本文了解有关定时研究的好处的更多信息。
Here’s a summary:
-
- 学生s can have mock exam conditions that keep them on track
- 在时间范围内学习使您有动力
- Your child will have a clearer sense of direction
- Your child will be on schedule (and you can confirm this!)
The biggest key to stop procrastinating study isfinding other positive things to fill its space，这正是定时研究的目标！
步骤＃3：为学习休息创造空间
尽管研究很重要，但也很重要至关重要的是，您给孩子的休息时间至关重要。理想情况下，高中students shouldn’t be studying for more than two hours at a time（如果可以帮助的话，更少的是好的）。
这是因为注意力迅速减少。The cerebrum, or the large most outer part of the brain, is responsible for most of our learning. It controls conscious thinking, reading and general understanding. Like the rest of our body, it gets tired!
我们以前推荐的一种很好的方法是Pomodoro Method。
让您的孩子将其用作学习的一部分鼓励良好的学习习惯，并增加专注于拖延！
步骤＃4：摆脱干扰
Okay, this one is easy! It’s also vital.
While many students, particularly those who are quite intelligent, maytry to multitask, it’s not an effective way of studying.
实际上，研究表明multitasking may将我们的生产率降低多达40％! That’s a rather alarming statistic when you consider that a lot of HSC is centred on rote learning and memorisation.
最简单的事情是消除孩子学习地点的任何干扰。Start by taking any physical distractions out of the space. This may include学习，游戏，书籍或桌子上可能使用的任何东西都不需要的技术。
如果您的孩子正在为他们的工作使用技术，那么您可能想建议一个网站块，例如SelfControl或者Cold Turkeyto ensure study stays on track.
The difficulty with eliminating distractions is that you don’t want to be controlling over your child.首先进行对话，因此您可以就最佳行动方案达成共识。
步骤＃5：给您的孩子设置睡前时间
有很多证据表明getting good sleep has a critical impact on study。When we sleep, weconsolidate memory, solidifying knowledge in our minds for easy recall later.
更远，sleep gives us an increased chance of focus later in the day（有望导致拖延症减少）。
定期就寝时间和清晨阳光对良好的大脑功能很重要。To impose a clear bedtime routine, start by talking to your child about when it is a reasonable time to sleep. This should beaiming for at leasteight hours of sleep，事先有一定的降落时间。
Once this is done,work with your child to keep this bedtime consistent。Perhaps you will even go to sleep at a similar time to them. Whatever your plan, remember that good sleep can be a vital key to focus and limited procrastination.
步骤＃6：建议学习组
If your child enjoys a good social atmosphere but needs to get work done, having them study in a group may be the solution!
当学生与朋友一起工作时，他们可以分享想法并获得有关信息的新观点。小组工作还增加了竞争优势。您的孩子不太可能拖延，因为他们看到其他人在他们周围所做的工作，并且很可能想渴望做到这一点。
更远，study groups generally set a regular time to meet. This means that if your child wants to see their friends, they actually有出现并完成工作— no more secret Netflix!
首先向小组开放房屋或建议当地图书馆。要容纳，但是如果学生承担任务，请将零食指向正确的方向。
Step #7: Create a set study space
作为人类，我们真的thrive off habit。The basal ganglia, or habit-making part of the brain, often associates visual cues with certain behaviours.
这意味着拥有一致的学习空间非常理想。您可以将孩子设置在家里的办公室，甚至只是找到他们附近的图书馆，它很安静并且有免费的桌子。
你可能想协作并找到您孩子喜欢的区域，这是可以访问的，感觉不会太分心。
重要的，make sure your child’s study space is not their bed! This will mix up the associations of sleep and wakefulness, causing worse rest and increased procrastination.
Wherever you choose,给您的孩子一个忠实的学习基础将有助于他们的大脑将上述区域与研究相关联，最大程度地减少他们拖延的趋势。
在那里，您可以通过7个步骤来帮助您的孩子停止拖延学习！
