Scheduling and Planning Tools

PLANNING AND USING SCHEDULES

Using time intelligently can contribute to your academic success. These planners are designed to help you to develop goals, create a time management schedule, avoid procrastination, and take control of your time. As you read through the instructions and set-up your schedule, keep in mind that balancing your activities is most important. After all, (all work and no play) will stress you out, and (all play and no work) will cause you much frustration.

Balance, between class, study, work, and leisure activities, that’s the key to good time management.

EVALUATE YOUR STUDY SPACE

Concentration is the number one problem for many students. Frequently, the problem is one of finding a place to study where there are no external distractions. External distractions are those that originate outside of the body. Telephone calls, visitors, and noises are examples. Concentration may be difficult when there are too many such distractions present. This checklist will help you analyze distractions in the places you study.
