  2. Two secrets • Work on your own • Don’t fall behind

  3. Work on your own • Getting to the point in the year where I can tell when two people worked together • When I see this, I must do something • Regardless of how much I like you • At CHS, I must report this to the office • Goes into your academic file • Please don’t put me in a position where I need to turn you in to the office • Do your own work.

  4. Why is Time Management Important? • In college-level Computer Science, you no longer get simple labs you can do in an hour. • Labs typically take several weeks • Can’t do all the work in the last few days • Too much • Can’t predict how long it will take • May be bugs that take days to fix • Important to pace yourself

  5. Don’t plan to relax early, rush later • Programmers tend to take it easy early in the project • This makes them rush later on • This is bad • When you are rushing, less likely to debug systematically • More likely to try something and hope it works • This often makes it worse • Shoot for an even pace • Usually this means getting off to a fast start • We’re not used to this. That’s because getting to a fast start is important but not urgent

  6. CS3 is not kind to students who program at the last minute • It breaks my heart every time a student has to turn in a program they almost finished. • In this class the difference between finishing and almost finishing can be the difference between an A and a D.
