How Do We Implement the Pomodoro Technique?
Using the Pomodoro Technique in our classrooms offers numerous benefits for students. Here’s our approach –
- Introduction– into two blocks of 20/25 minutes.
- Uninterrupted Work– Before starting the timer, we ensure students have everything they need for focused work.
- Setting the Timer– We create excitement through the ritual of setting the timer and setting clear expectations.
- Break Time– After the first block, students enjoy a 5-minute break to refresh and address questions.
- Second Work Block– We reset the timer, signalling the start of the second block for continued productivity.
- Evaluation and Improvement– We assess student focus and output to make room for adjustments.
How the Pomodoro Technique Works Wonders?
Here’s what makes the Pomodoro Technique so effective –
- Increases Focus– By breaking the time period into manageable intervals, the Pomodoro Technique reduces feelings of being overwhelmed and helps maintain better focus throughout the study sessions.
- Prevents Burnout– It ensures that all take strategic breaks, rejuvenating mind and improving overall well-being.
- Sharpens Concentration– It helps combat diminishing attention spans and enables one to make the most of study time.
