Like most of my fellow classmates, I have yet to start my data sheet. And as winter break begins to wind down I am starting to think about the positives and negatives of my decision.
Here are some of the positives of not starting a 179-point project over winter break:
· Higher enjoyment of winter break
· More time to hangout with family and friends
· More time to ski, snowboard, and do other fun winter activities
· No ridicule from classmates
· More time to blog
· Saving energy by not using a computer
And the negatives:
· Could cause stress toward the end of break
· Students may experience exhaustion, insomnia and anxiety during the first week back from break
· Sparks anger toward those who did a lot of work over break
· Lowers overall academic performance due to fatigue in the first week back
Based on my lists, the most prudent course of action would be to start the data over break but my desire for a relaxing and fun two weeks of break outweigh the one week of anxiety and stress.
