Week 3 tasks 1-3

Task 1
The skill I need to work on the most is getting to class on time. I have an issue with making to class on time because I'm either talking to my friends or waking up late. I know these are bad habits that should be broken as soon as possible but so many times I just seem to forget. If I worked harder and really think about how I'm missing the beginning of class I would be better at this. This semester I'm working very hard on this problem because I don't want too many tardies or absents.

Task 2
Taking Notes in Class: 1. Be prepared for class with plenty of pens and paper
2. Write fast so that you have important facts
3. Rewrite the notes after class
4. Use abbrevations to speed up your pace
5. Listen when the teachers gives hints of when to write
Procrasitation: 1. Stop putting off a task
2. If I start something finish it
3. Don't give up once I find it difficult
4. Don't get distracted
5. Don't work on more than one thing at a time


Task 3

For my service learning I'm planning to work at differnt police departments. My duties for this job will be to file paperwork and help around the department as needed. I chose to work at police stations because I'm focusingh on a career in criminal justice. I know their will be a lot to learn, even though there's alot to do. I haven't started yet but I'm scheduled to begin either Jan.30 or Feb.5. Even if I don't start this week I don't think I will be far behind because I can make up my hours on Fridays and during the spring break holiday.
