Deadlines are important because it can help you keep up with work and keep tabs on your goals. Deadlines are important so you can underpromise and overdeliver, strategies to meet deadlines; plan ahead for project. set the deadline a little while before the final deadline. Prep for projects – use a calendar. use smaller deadlines so you have a certain amount of time to do said projects/work. ‘break it down to milestones’ for a 8 week project, make the milestones for every 2 weeks- this is mostly used in FMP to plan out and hit the deadline on the time. with each different area for the project, you can break them into even smaller deadline/milestones. – make a todo list. This can help you to prioritise, what needs to be done, what can be done and what can be done at later date.
Discussion: For this evidence you need to consider your experience of working with others. You will produce a short scripted presentation and deliver this to camera.

Group work assignment
For an assessed written group-work assignment, my group (3 others from my course) and I decided to divide the different sections between us so that we only had to research one element each. We expected we could just piece the assignment together in the afternoon the day before the deadline, meaning that we didn’t have to schedule a time to sit and write it together. However, when we sat down it was clear the sections weren’t written in the same writing style. We, therefore, had to rewrite most of the assignment to make it a coherent piece of work. We had given ourselves enough time before the deadline to individually write our own sections, however, we did not plan a great deal of time to rewrite if something were to go wrong. Therefore, two members of the group had to drop their plans that evening so the assignment would be finished in time for the deadline.
