A sustainable weekly loop

Your teachers' instructions and deadlines remain authoritative. This routine helps turn them into manageable work.

CapturePut every new deadline, feedback action and question into one trusted system.
ClarifyRewrite “work on IA” as a visible next action such as “annotate two sources” or “revise graph captions.”
PrioritiseChoose by deadline, consequence and cognitive effort—not by which task feels easiest.
FocusProtect short, distraction-free blocks for difficult thinking and separate them from admin tasks.
ReviewAt the end of the week, update milestones and identify the question you need to ask next.
