End of Semester Push

We are finally entering the last phase of the semester. This last stage encompasses the last two months of the semester.

The end of semester push brings an uptick of mood, motivation, and productivity. It is our students' superpower and saving grace.

Summer plans are being discussed and the weather is changing, which all signal the end of semester is near. There is a sense of excitement that sparks the brain function back online. Even their moods become sunnier (hopefully).

Using the Semester Lifecycle as our guide, we are able to predict the challenges and plan strategies to match. Get ready. Get set. Go!

It's predictable:

Expect the end of semester push to supercharge the brain networks. The closer to the end of the semester they get, the easier it is to get motivated.

Last minute urgency allows our students to do three weeks of work, in three hours. It leaves us all puzzled as to why they couldn’t just do that in the first place, you know?

How We Can Help: It boils down to energizing the sluggish brain by sparking that interest-based system. Just as that strong start left you glowing with pride, the end of semester push will also amaze you. Provide tools and strategies as needed, while enjoying the progress and celebrating your brilliant student!

Here's the plan:

• We will spark motivation by using The Freedom Incentive.

• Extend the time horizon with the double calendar strategy.

• Use the When/Then strategy to spark initiation.

• Manage tasks with the three-column task list strategy.

• Employ strategic study tricks for unique learners.
