Why do students at university procrastinate?

Answer 1

There are several reasons why some students take longer to finish their homework.

1. They do not understand what to do. Sometimes, they have not paid attention in class, or have not read the textbook. Sometimes, they just don't understand it, even though they are trying!
2. They are distracted. Modern students have so many distractions - TV, computers, phones, Video Games, music! Many students do not realize how these distractions are making it harder for them to study, and making them take longer to finish their work.
3. They are procrastinating. Nobody likes to work! Students who are not mature yet are going to put off the work as long as they can.
4. They have too much homework from other teachers and therefore cant finish everything

Answer 2

I'm guessing they think they have better things to do, just to lazy, or think it is boring.

Students don't understand how important studying is. School is your job, just like your parents go to work daily to earn a paycheck and support the family. Students forget this fact, and think they can slack off and still "get by" in school and in life. Mature students do want to study and get the best chance that they can for their future.

Lets focus on "Want" word first. We want something that we find interesting, something we enjoy. But we may have to do something which is even though not interesting but good for us or society. This is true for elders also and not just children.

For example we "Want" to play but we "Have" to work. Same is true with children also. Teachers who have been able to make the studies interesting have been able to make students study without effort.
