It has actually been an issue of mine for quite some time now. I try to control it the most that i can by using certain techniques. The main one of those being using the reminders application on my iPhone. It reminds me when i have something coming up which helps a lot.Sam Phillpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787726082633337076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686254488839957368.post-47715391574148557792011-10-17T22:06:17.850-05:002011-10-17T22:06:17.850-05:00Time Management is something that i was better at ...Time Management is something that i was better at in younger years when there was less to do. I believe the best thing to do is to have reminders set in something or have them somewhere that we use or go to everyday in our home. Write little notes down on the mirror in the bathroom, make notes on your hands, whatever works in my opinion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686254488839957368.post-51839785204426404922011-09-22T17:43:55.444-05:002011-09-22T17:43:55.444-05:00I used to, and honestly still do, struggle with ti...I used to, and honestly still do, struggle with time managing. But I have discovered the usefulness, as well as the addictiveness, of using a day planner. Before I went to UNT, I didn't use or even think of using a say planner. Once I transferred out of community college and into University level classes, I quickly discovered that I needed some other way of keeping up on my homework and everything else I was juggling, instead of just making sidenotes in my class notebooks. I had gotten a day planner at the Mean Green Fling for free and had just stashed it away, thinking I'd never really use it. I dug it up and it became my constant companion that semester. <br />Using a day planner helps me keep my class work, regular work, outside activities and social life organized. I'd be lost without it!MiriamCraneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16007255423833008326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686254488839957368.post-46557087698926596412011-09-11T21:06:14.901-05:002011-09-11T21:06:14.901-05:00Time management is definitely something that I'...Time management is definitely something that I've always struggled with. I used to always procrastinate in high school, but now that I'm in college, I have tried to break that habit. I try to set aside a time each night to look over my notes and do my required readings. Like Kevin said, splitting the readings up really makes a difference. When I take notes, I like to use bullet points and underline key words that my professor stresses. This makes my notes easier to read and understand when I go back over them later on.Katelyn Klickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14167168918445732068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686254488839957368.post-49321333487109159772011-09-02T15:04:50.954-05:002011-09-02T15:04:50.954-05:00I'll be the first to say that time management ...I'll be the first to say that time management is definitely not my forte, however going to college has somewhat forced me to have more of a timed schedule. What I find most helpful, which is a lot like Cassandra's suggestion, is that one should always ask the professor if their PowerPoint slides are going to be posted online. This isn't a way to know that you can skip class, but what works for me is to write other notes that reinforce the concepts beside each slide that was printed. This is especially helpful in math and science classes (which are also not my forte). Required reading is also something that is extremely hard for me to tackle, being as I'm a slow reader. What I do is split up the readings day by day so it's less daunting. I know probablly everybody has heard this suggestion, but it really works. Five pages a day - nothing. Fifty pages in an hour - scary.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
