Q1) How big of an issue is procrastination in your classes? #timemanagement #onlineEd #iolchat

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:11 PM EDT

Huge problem - time management is key in #onlinelearning success #iolchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:12 PM EDT

I see it all the time, too ... waiting until the last minute each week/module leads to many problems, and added stress. #iolchat

In reply to @jshamsy

Marie_Foley5 Mar 29 @ 12:12 PM EDT

A1: Procrastination is a huge issue in the classroom. Teaching self-goals and self-management are keys to life success! #IOLchat

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:13 PM EDT

A1: In classrooms I have had experience in, it has always been a significant issue! Teaching time management seems tricky. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:14 PM EDT

@Marie_Foley5 I like this "teaching" time management topic! So important in school and beyond. :) Any teaching tips? #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott, @Marie_Foley5

jernstberger Mar 29 @ 12:16 PM EDT

I'm joining in, too! #iolchat

jernstberger Mar 29 @ 12:17 PM EDT

Also, in and out! #iolchat

Hi, Jon!! Great to see you. :) #iolchat

In reply to @jernstberger

Marie_Foley5 Mar 29 @ 12:18 PM EDT

Model good time management, but avoid "nagging" the students. Let them take pride in their work! #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd, @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:19 PM EDT

Modeling is a helpful strategy. We've all (I think) had that teacher who was struggling with time management, too. #iolchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:19 PM EDT

Q2) What things trigger procrastination? Why do we (and our students) do it? #OnlineTeaching #OnlineLearning #iolchat

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:20 PM EDT

Hi Marie! I love this idea. I agree, better to model time management for them. #IOLchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5, @CenterOnlineEd

philosophypaul Mar 29 @ 12:21 PM EDT

A2 Theory: control. Alt. theories: time mng., failure to prioritize, avoidance. #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

Hello, Paul! Hope all is well. Thanks for joining in. :) #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul

Marie_Foley5 Mar 29 @ 12:22 PM EDT

A2: Students procrastinate due to the "fear of failing" and so they choose not to try! Let's make mistakes okay in the classroom. #IOLchat

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:22 PM EDT

great comment! Also have to let them fly - can't micromanage #iolchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5, @CenterOnlineEd, @_katiescott

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:23 PM EDT

great point -- this isn't a unidirectional problem #iolchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd, @Marie_Foley5

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:23 PM EDT

Can you say more about how control is part of it? #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul

jernstberger Mar 29 @ 12:23 PM EDT

Totally agreed with A2! #iolchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:24 PM EDT

I agree - have to have positive self talk - learn to control this behavior #IOLChat

In reply to @philosophypaul, @CenterOnlineEd

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:24 PM EDT

A2: Influence of peers around you and having a lot of thoughts on your mind! Also, possible difficulty of prioritising tasks. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:24 PM EDT

Yes! Classrooms on campus and online can (and should) be safe places to try, fail, try again. :) #iolchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5

philosophypaul Mar 29 @ 12:24 PM EDT

Avoidance may be overcome by more formative assessment? Yes. #iolchat

Marie_Foley5 Mar 29 @ 12:22 PM EDT

A2: Students procrastinate due to the "fear of failing" and so they choose not to try! Let's make mistakes okay in the classroom. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:26 PM EDT

Absolutely - I think the prioritization issue is a big part of it. Being overwhelmed can then amplify the problem. #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott

Reply: Psych theory: procrastination is acting out of control by behavior mod.. You say today, and I say tomorrow. #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:26 PM EDT

I agree! I believe with society today, there is such a fear of failing that we need to try overcome. #IOLchat

In reply to @Marie_Foley5

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:28 PM EDT

like this idea !!! Formative assessment #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:28 PM EDT

getting it "perfect"/getting the A as opposed to learning - I find myself falling into this trap #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott, @Marie_Foley5

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:29 PM EDT

I know I've fallen into it as a student. Trying to create different experience for my students #iolchat

In reply to @jshamsy, @_katiescott, @Marie_Foley5

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:30 PM EDT

rushing usually doesn't allow for learning/reflection.. pointless #iolchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

Marie_Foley5 Mar 29 @ 12:30 PM EDT

Exactly!! #IOLchat

In reply to @jshamsy, @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:30 PM EDT

I see it this way in some students. Especially in those early online classes in the program. #IOLchat

In reply to @philosophypaul, @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:31 PM EDT

So true! RT @jshamsy @CenterOnlineEd rushing usually doesn't allow for learning/reflection.. pointless #iolchat

In reply to @jshamsy, @CenterOnlineEd

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:32 PM EDT

And in later classes ... the "overwhelmed" seems to be in managing work, life, etc. -> priorities #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul, @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:33 PM EDT

Q3) What are some strategies students can use to manage the tendency to procrastinate? #iolchat

jshamsy Mar 29 @ 12:34 PM EDT

Door closing -- have to go :-( Happy Wednesday!! 😊 #iolchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:34 PM EDT

Safe travels, Jennifer! #iolchat

In reply to @jshamsy

philosophypaul Mar 29 @ 12:36 PM EDT

A3 Ss may rank tasks, obligations, priorities. Fit priorities within work/study-eat-rest balanced lifestyle #iolchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:37 PM EDT

A3: Writing colourful, eye-catching lists can be a way to prioritise/stay on task, therefore reducing tendency to procrastinate. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:39 PM EDT

Achieving this balance is a skill! Practice can make perfect, to some extent - fine tune, get better w/each class #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:39 PM EDT

Interesting! Do you use any kind of tech tool to create these lists? #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:41 PM EDT

I have recently been introduced to Paper 53, a sketchnoting app! It is very easy to use and very useful for this. #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:44 PM EDT

This is a new one to me - thanks for the introduction :) #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:44 PM EDT

Last Q of the day ... coming up! #iolchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:45 PM EDT

Q4) What can course designers and instructors do to help students avoid the procrastination trap? #OnlineLearning #iolchat

jernstberger Mar 29 @ 12:47 PM EDT

A4) Automated reminders from an LMS or an email client. #iolchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:48 PM EDT

One of my students mentioned this just yesterday! Getting the email notification prompted a look at the calendar. #iolchat

In reply to @jernstberger

philosophypaul Mar 29 @ 12:49 PM EDT

A4 In ID employ clear time-based activites w predictable deadline, use LMS calender, include completion checklist #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

philosophypaul Mar 29 @ 12:50 PM EDT

Multiple reminders can be a benefit. Failsafe mech. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:48 PM EDT

One of my students mentioned this just yesterday! Getting the email notification prompted a look at the calendar. #iolchat
In reply to @jernstberger

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:50 PM EDT

Yes!! And perhaps be consistent with these across classes - becomes more predictable #iolchat

In reply to @philosophypaul

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:50 PM EDT

A4: provide exciting lessons and constantly keep children motivated to learn, without overwhelming them with work. #IOLchat

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:51 PM EDT

Engagement and motivation are a huge part of all of this! Time management less of an issue when Ss are active in class #iolchat

In reply to @_katiescott

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:54 PM EDT

We’re nearing the end of #IOLchat for this week...

_katiescott Mar 29 @ 12:54 PM EDT

That is so true! I will definitely be keeping these things in mind when I am teaching in my own classroom. :) #IOLchat

In reply to @CenterOnlineEd

CenterOnlineEd - Moderator Mar 29 @ 12:55 PM EDT

... Thanks to @_katiescott @colostateveag @Marie_Foley5 @jshamsy @jernstberger and @philosophypaul for making it happen! :) #iolchat

Your ability to apply your own lessons learned as a student will have a helpful impact on your students in turn. :) #iolchat
