ORIENTATION: new student tips #1; Time Management
Posted on July 15, 2009 by ED
From the Counselling staff at Student Assist:
- Re-structure your time to give yourself at least 10 hours a week for every subject you are enrolled in. You may need to talk over your needs with other people in your household so they understand your need to make changes.
- Use ‘waiting’ time such as when waiting for a bus or sitting waiting for an appointment, as learning time, for example, have a series of index cards with summaries, definitions or formulae that you can read over.
- Use a timetable to work out and plan time for study. Make sure you still leave time for relaxation and leisure activities.
- Use your assignment due dates as a guide for long-term planning and set deadlines for each stage of working on the assignment.
