Where does my time go?
On the blank grid that follows, map out your typical week for this term. Start by recording what you usually do on these days, including when you have class, when you work, and when you relax or recreate. You can use abbreviations or write tasks out in full if you have enough room in the box (Jā Job, R&R= rest/relaxation, etc.). List the abbreviations you created at the bottom of the page sot that I can follow them.
If you are a full time student, find 25 hours in your week that you could devote to homework (HW). These 25 hours could be found between classes, during the day, in the evenings, or on the weekends. If you can find 25 hours per week for homework, in addition to your class schedule, you will have a 40-hours schoolwork, which research has shown to result in good grades and success in college.
If you are a part-time student, find 2 hours you could devote to homework for every hour that you are in class (e.g., if you are in class 9 hours per week, find 18 hours of homework time.
After completing the grid, answer the following questions in two paragraphs (each paragraph must have 6 sentences).
Are there areas of your life that are not getting enough time? Are there other areas getting too much time? What are your biggest time wasters? Where are there inefficiencies? Are your expectations for your time realistic? Is there flexibility in your schedule for the unexpected?
