on the assignment
without interruption and
with the most concentration
and creativity?
- What strength or interest of yours
has helped you complete a similar assignment?
- Who is the target audience of the
assignment?
Who are you writing for?
How does this "stakeholder" relate to the objective of
the assignment?
(Remember: a teacher can be your target audience!).
- If your past way of working has not been
effective,
is there an alternative strategy you can use?
Who or where can you go for advice?
- What is one option that can make the
assignment
more interesting or enjoyable?
