Use the table below to plan your writing and research for the next three weeks of class. Be very specific about what you plan to do and when you plan to do it. For example, if you plan to spend Tuesday night writing your paper’s introduction, think about how long the introduction is likely to be (in terms of words) and consider how much time (in terms of hours) it may take you to write it. It is always a good idea to block out some serious time for this kind of work on your calendar.
