How to work from home?
Working from home can be challenging, and a routine is more important than ever – especially if your classes are offered asynchronously. Think about how you can create a structured day. Some good practices include: 1 Try to do as much work as you can early in the day, or at least during daylight hours. 2 Try to start each day at the same time; sleeping in on “late” days is like giving yourself jetlag every other day! 3 Divide your day into manageable “chunks” – spend 1-2 hours at a time on one course, then take a short break and move on to something else. 4 At the same time, don’t multitask or microtask: give yourself long enough at a stretch to complete a reading, or a module, or a problem set. 5 Schedule frequent breaks to get up and move! Outdoors if possible, but definitely away from your phone or laptop. 6 Work with your family to make sure that they understand your schedule, and that you will need to stick to it. If they know that you need to spend 2:00-3:00 pm reading for your 3:30 Zoom meeting, they won’t ask you to walk the dog at 2:30. 7 Just like on campus, make sure to schedule time for exercise! 8 Make sure you are scheduling free time and mealtimes, and give yourself an end-time each night. Draw some boundaries around your academic work so that you can relax and spend time with family.
