I never understood putting off homework. The faster you finish the more you get to be lazy for the rest of the day without worry. Why have homework looming over you?
I understand that this is plain logic, but we constantly tend to defy logic.
I always postponed my homework-to-do, tellin to myself “yeah, I’ll have time to do it later”…then at a point realize that I have no time left.
Homework is a gaseous activity – the earlier you start it, the longer it takes.
Yeah, but the earler you start, the better it is…
Not necessarily. Some people work better under pressure.
For me, it definitely depended on the subject. I remember noticing an inverse relationship between how long I spent on an English paper and my grade for it. I suppose the longer I spent on it, the more I destroyed the natural flow of it, and I was unfortunately incapable of restoring that flow.
same here, for example for System and Network Engineering class I had to write a script, I started in class already and well, it was “standard” would have been a C or something.
My HD crashed and I had to rewrite it in 10 minutes.
A++
that would be me…
i tend to do better homework at 11pm. the clock is telling me:
do it now or its a weeks detention!
Who gives a week detention for not doing homework?
The longer you put it off, the more free time you have… duh.
Pity you never went to school, you wouldn’t understand this chart!
I agree with you, and believe me that’s how I would do it…
but most of the time homework is put off not beccause there’s something I’d rather be doing,
but because the homework is something that force me to cause myself physical pain so that I might servie the expirience.
homework is gay like Luke Perry
ugk, i really do watch too much Family Guy 8D
Smartest graph ive seen
Yes, folks. This is how a flow chart is supposed to work!
(I usually fell under the “get a life” portion of the chart. Can you tell?)
Seems like there are a few questions missing. Like “Can you finish the homework during Homeroom?” Or “Do you have study hall or lunch before the homework is due?” And “Can you just copy your best friend’s work in the hallway before class?”
12 hours!? try 30 min
the funny thing is that I have homework I should be doing right next to me. ha.
Mhe that English paper can wait ;P
“Get a Life”
Uh… Really? If I’ve checked all the websites I look at daily, and nothing’s happening otherwise, I think I’ll do my homework.
Get a life!
Hi five!!!!!!!
I love how they insinuate that watching TV, checking email and doing facebook is having a life.
haha good point. Although when you have homework due you think “i can’t plan anything with my friends because I have to work..” and then at home you just end up on facebook..lol
This flowchart only really works for high school homework. You can tell the people in college (especially freshmen level classes) that procrastinated or didn’t do their homework at all because they’re the ones that fail and choose easy majors.
Actually, this is not the case. I always put my homework off and I have never failed a class and I’m in engineering. I totally agree with this flow chart for the most part.
I thought this was GraphJam, not FlowchartJam.
Birds are nice when they fly.
yes, i agree
Yes and birds are also nice when they sing, or perch pretty.
But I like non-flying birds… I think they are nicer.
The flying ones seems to always poop all over the place.
“Is the homework due in less than 12 hours?”
This author is entirely too responsible.
Try 2 hours.
Haha Love it.
For me, the usual flow is:
335 hours remaining (end of class, two weeks before assignment is due): assigned
335.9 hours: start work on assignment (0 pages)
334 hours: pronounce work as bad, delete (length at time of delete: 1 page), subconscious thinking starts
47 hours: get help on assignment right after last class before
16 hours: start really doing the work (0 pages complete)
7 hours: pick up the pace by a huge factor (1 page complete)
0.1 hours: completed (final length: ~7 pages), print, staple, sign honor code
0 hours: turn in
How it works:
335 hours – 12 hours: subconsciously doing the work
12 hours – 3 hours: developing a means for transcribing thoughts to words
3 hours – 0.1 hours: the actual transcription
Main advantage: your brain doesn’t crash the way a hard drive does, and it is always processing information
I have an 8 pg paper due at 9 am and its midnight. so what do i do? i get on facebook and see a link to this. so what have i been doing for the last 20 min? reading all the comments given and now giving my response to this page.
Making homework pays of later, postponing it pays of right now.
I posted this on FB for all my students and friends taking classes. I believe in multislacking myself.
LOL, everyone has homework! Even people who haven’t been in school for three years!
Well, I don’t have any homework. Therefore I must get a life? I thought I had one and its going pretty ok. This graph needs a little more work me thinks.
Does homework include 3 assignments due tomorrow? Yes? No?
YOULIE.
I will not give in.
(Swears silently)
This flow chart hit to close to home.
LOL I’m doing this right now.
