For timed assignments and work blocks, using timers can help relieve some of the anxiety about finishing the task. They give me a tiny sense of control about the task and, like making lists, they take the stress of tracking the deadline off of my plate. I can just peek up at break points and see if I need to speed up or if I can take more time for something. The timed countdown allows me to focus more on what needs to be done.
Visual timers also help keep groups of people on the same track and set expectations, making them perfect for signaling a plan for the classroom or session. Playing a giant-sized timer on the class screen board takes the pressure off the teacher and the students. They give the opportunity for independence and accountability, all the while building a sense of time. Each time we complete a task with a timer, we learn real-world applications of what we can accomplish in that set amount of time and can apply to that our future-planning.
