If a student divides tasks only into easy and difficult, which important basis for setting priorities is being missed?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Task importance, deadline, and impact
Task difficulty alone does not determine the correct order of work. A task may be easy but urgent, or difficult but less important for the immediate goal. Effective prioritisation considers how important the task is, when it is due, and what effect completing or delaying it will have. Paper size, book colour, and friends’ preferences are not reliable priority criteria.
