Beginning today, students are going to track how much time they spend working on projects. This is a standard activity in many professions. For example, lawyers bill clients in six minutes increments. Accounting firms also bill clients based on an hourly rate, but rarely work a complete hour. Computer consultants bill clients too. Many visual artists also track their time, even if the artist is not billing a client, so that the artist knows whether a project is potentially profitable.
You will begin using a Microsoft Excel Spreadsheet to track how you spend your time in class each day. At the end of each class, send the MS Excel spreadsheet to me. Use the same spreadsheet for the rest of the year.
What categories should be included? How should the form look? Do you organize by week? How can you calculate the amount of time? What are the obstacles about being honest?
