I used the target in TRF 205 and DRA 115. I am a visual learner and this strategy is very useful for such learners. It allows one to visualize the task they must do. I could actually visualize my progress on the project or assignment. Build into this strategy is chunking the task. Chunking up the task is a great strategy on it's own because it brakes up a large project or assignment to smaller more manageable parts. Overall the target planner is a great way to get you started on projects and assignments, and it keep you on track to make sure you will finish in time for the due date.
