School counselors can encourage students to complete less-preferred homework assignments first, __________, or complete after easier work has been accomplished.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sandwiching difficult assignments between preferred tasks can provide motivation and a sense of accomplishment, making it more likely for students to tackle the less-preferred tasks. Using metacognitive strategies is a good general suggestion but does not specifically address completing less-preferred homework assignments. Completing every other problem or staggering completion time may not be effective strategies for completing less-preferred work.
