Build teams with time

Effective Diary keeping


A ‘week to view’ diary for the academic year is perfect. Fill in the important dates for the year for family holidays, medical appointments and study activities.
Nwpf (2012)

Development and running of a successful life often comes down to being in control and across all issues be appropriate to the day to day procedures. From Don Matlock ‘s experience (Evancarmichael, 2012), an important part of achieving success in life was make use of the effective use of a detailed diary, allowing him to have confidence within himself in relation to timing.

What to put in about students study?
According to Cottrell (2008,P71), to be effective, diary needs to be a complete record of what student have to do:
  • Write in all study deadlines, exam dates, field trips, etc.
  • Write in exactly where and with whom each appointment or lecture is.
  • Schedule some free time to be used in catching up on what got missed.
Mapping the time patterns suite to a person based on:
  • Think about the subject.
  • Prepare for lectures and seminars.
  • Prepare for other formal sessions.
  • Plan own work.
  • Organise and refile own notes.
  • Reflect on own learning.
  • Discuess work with others.
  • Research each subject.
  • Write early drafts.
  • Edit and redraft your writing.
  • Check own work.

The above points, author map to own life and it looks as follows. 
First of all, author thinks about the subjects which has lot of content as well as hard. Then plan the lecture hours and group discussions for the particular subject. Next if there are some own activities plan them too. Next maintains the own notes about them. But author can edit those or check in any time. And also think about the preferred time of the day and schedule the activities. Author use the early in the morning for studying hardest subject contents. But the day is starting bit productive in the morning and at night it carries to the highest productivity. Some are more productive in the morning and less productive at night. And few are less productive in morning and night where as the mid day is high productive. (Cookiedoughlove91.blogspot, 2010)

The strength of the team is each individual member... the strength of each member is the team

Lecturer Mr. Rehan started talking about Team Work which was very interesting for everybody. Before starting the lesson lecturer asked Waheed to select people who he like by him and he chose Chalitha and Madara. Then those 3 fellows were asked to come to the front of the class and Chalitha was asked to get on to a chair and fall backward where Waheed and Madara were supposed to catch him (Chalitha). As Chalitha is a tall person the whole class got anxious to see whether Chalitha would do that. But  group members declined it as they weren't ready to take this risk at now. Main reason of this activity was to show that trust  is essential when group of people are working together. 

Afterward the lecturer asked Siddeek and Chalitha to select their group members and build up a ladder using chairs where a group member should be able to climb up. After making two different ladders by the groups,finally with the help of all team members build up the first strongest ladder with four steps where Natasha was able to climb up.  The other group also built their ladder secondly which was higher than the wining group of 
Siddeek. Natasha climbed to the ladder and showed the winning post where as Ashiky from the other group climb to their ladder afterwards. Asiky was frightend to climb to the last part of the ladder where there was only one chair powered by Ahmadh. But finally Ashiky gained the challenge from Ahmadh and climbed to that too.Actually this was interesting all of us.

Everybody were happy and Mr. Rehan said that he had a risk until the students finish this task securely. Next explained the IPLE concept of a team work which is described below.
  I – Individual
  P – Planning
  L – Leading
  E – Empathy

  1. It is very important because we can use the diary as a memory of the events and happenings in our life.

    Memories fade but the written word can re-spark the mind.

    But the keeping diary is reducing day by day So while we are moving to the technology we can use Ipod, To do list in phones, Google calender etc.

    I think if u mention these things its help u a lot
