Working under pressure

Whenever I give any written work on essays, I will ask my students finish them within the time allocated and not more than that. Initially, I extend the time if they cannot complete their work. As time goes on, I will collect their work when the time is up. My students who work under pressure gets used to it and they are able to accomplish their task within the time limit.

As for me, I also demand myself to complete my notes to be given out or do modifications to the lessons to suit the class situations. I find that working under pressure in this way helps to expedite work. It is not much different from sticking to a planned schedule.
