1. Some behaviors that I have used to keep up with the course include watching the
lectures because this is essential to getting points for the cupcakes. In addition to this,
watching the lectures also helps us because in the lectures a lot of the time Dr.Pryor will
explain the assignments so when I have to do them it is a lot simpler than looking at it
with fresh eyes. I have also developed the habit of looking at my assignments ahead of
time and spacing out enough time to do them so that I am not cramming to get it done
thursday night or friday morning.
2. One moment I felt like giving up was a few weeks ago. I had a quiz in chemistry the next
day (friday) and I was trying to do the assignments that were done the next day. I was
very tired and it was very late, so I was thinking of just not doing it at all so I could at
least get a few hours of sleep. But, then I remembered if I just push through it now and
get it over I will have more time to study for chemistry in the morning and not have to
finish my assignments in the morning. So, that was motivation to get it done. I do feel
like I have gained a tentatious attitude while being in the course. I would definitely say
just doing a bunch of assignments and cupcakes has made me develop this attitude.
3. Tips:
- (fostering the skills that support tenacity) Make sure you are disciplined about watching the lectures ahead of time. Or go to lecture!
- (developing the 'tenacious mindset) Get comfortable with doing assignments ahead of time so you will not stress. Try to space out your assignments so you are not doing them all at once.
