Did you know?

-
Even the smartest student in a class flounders when faced with added challenges and greater expectations.
The never-ending tasks for adults, in the form of meetings, paperwork, production issues, travel/commute, chauffeuring kids, chores, community work....etc.
Even for students, the workload in the 21st century is unfathomable. The innumerable activities for students, in the form of homework, projects, tests, extracurricular & enrichment classes, after-school clubs, community work....etc. It requires tremendous skill to juggle these tasks. Procrastination or sleeping late will become disastrous.
Adolescents need about 9.2 hours of sleep each night, compared with the 7.5 to 8 hours that adults need. “Insufficient sleep puts adolescents at risk for cognitive & emotional difficulties, including poor school performance, disciplinary problems, sleepiness in class, and poor concentration. Recent research has revealed an association between sleep deprivation and poorer grades."
- American Psychological Association, October 2001 Monitor on Psychology.
Adding to this chaos is the lack of staying organized. A cluttered desk or a binder reduces productivity by half and increases stress levels by 50%.
