Google Timer Tech Tip
I find this time to be very useful when I am reading other people's stories. I get distracted easily, so this time keeps me on track. If the story is long I give myself about 15/20 minutes to read thoroughly. It sounds like a lot of time, but the extra few minutes also allow me to now feel rushed, and calm enough to reread a paragraph or two while reading the full story.
I feel like I should take this tip in the opposite direction... that is, I should set a timer in order to ensure that I am spending an adequate amount of time on each story. I often find myself rushing through projects, and would probably benefit from a timer telling em to take more time analyzing and looking at a piece of writing.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried this before but I'll definitely look into. I saw another person from the class mention it as well so it might be worth looking into. I always find like I just need to lock myself into a task for a certain amount of time to really ensure i get it done.I'll certainly make sure to look into it.
