What is the importance of deadlines? How do high school deadlines reflect or simulate "real world" experience? Give an example of when you met or or didn't meet a deadline that was important.
Deadlines are really important, because if you never have to meet any deadlines, then you never feel like you have any obligation to get the work done. You can just take forever to do it, or not do it at all. High school deadlines simulate a real world experience because if you don't get your work turned in on time, you are penalized.
An example of when I failed to me a deadline for an assignment was in 8th grade. We used to have to do these online math courses called BAIPs. Apparently I totally forgot to do them, even though my friends and brothers were doing them, I didn't even remember to do one. Long story short, I got an absolutely awful grade, and it took me the rest of the year to get that grade up to an A.
