Make
a Google Spreadsheet, and list all the Dorm-mates. Note down their time zones.
If your Dorm has a lot of members, split them up in groups of 2 or 3 “study
buddies”, on basis of time zones. It will encourage a sense of purpose towards
completing coursework. Also, urge them all to keep updating their points on a
regular basis into the spreadsheet.

Here’s how my Dorm Google document appears:

I request
you NOT to edit or make any changes. It is the original document. Notice how we
even have subject-wise spreadsheets, at the bottom, to help Dorm-mates keep a
track of their progress as well as compare them to others to motivate
themselves, or in case someone wants to consult a Dorm-mate who has already
finished a chapter they’re currently struggling with. Every time you finish a
chapter of a subject, and submit the assignment/essay for grading, you can mark
a “Y” against the said chapter in the subject spreadsheet. Filling the subject
spreadsheets is NOT compulsory in our Dorm, although I usually personally
recommend them to make the best use of the provision.

There are 42 people in my Dorm, divided into 21 study pairs, almost each of them is assigned a study buddy in the same time zone, so they can work out a study schedule together.
