2) What did you learn about time management that you had not already learned about?
3) Did anything strike you as interesting?
4) How can you incorporate better time management into your busy schedule?

  2. I think time management is good because if you dont have it, you will. Loose track of time?

    I learned that you shouldn't procrastinat!

    No, not really.

    I just need a schedule and to schedule when, and what homework to do!

    We will need time management for when we need to do our schedule, and when we need to finish ur project.

    I'm going to California, and to the dunes.

  5. 1. Time management is important because if you manage your time well, you can get more done in the day.
    2. College professors expect more from you.
    3. Circadian rhythms are really cool. I'd read about them before this, but they're always interesting.
    4. ...? I should probably do homework on the day it's assigned.
    5. I'm working with tutoring. I could probably tell students about this? Also, I shouldn't wait until the end of the year to work on the project.
    6. I'm going to the Grand Canyon. :D

  6. 1) Time management is important because it helps people to take their work one step at a time and not be overloaded. It also helps to make sure someone did their work. 2) I did not know about the circadian rhythms and that working certain times of the day will be better than working at other times during the day. 3) Only the circadian rhythms. 4) Use a planner or sticky notes to keep your schedule organized. 5) It can help me complete my project on time. 6) Something.

  9. Time management is important because it helps get a big project done.
    A thing I didn't know the A list, B list, C list thing.
    I thought the sleep thing was interesting.
    By making a list of most important think thing and breaking it up in sub tasks.
    The capstone can be broken up into smaller tasks so it doesn't seem as ominous
    Over Fall break I'm going to study to bring my grade up... You probably know the class.

  11. I think time management is important because it installs responsibility in your life, it makes you realize what you have at hand and it helps you realize how precious time is. I learned about the circadian rhythms. Yes the rock example on number 9! I can incorporate it better by on long projects create deadlines for myself. This relates to capstone because of your capstone projects you need to have them planned out with a timeline. I was going to palm springs but now I'm not I'm going on a real vacation I guess. My parents were talking about it this morning after my mom dropped me off. AND I'M GETTING MY BRACES OFF!!!!!!!!:)

  12. Time management is important because there is obviousley people who need to learn how to mange there time, and prioritize. I learned about the ways to stop procrastinating, and the circadian rhythm , but basically I learned about time management when I was like.......4. In my opinion I manage my time well ,but I guess I could make my "A" list shorter, and incorporate more leisure, but to me school should always take top priority . I'm not really doing anything fun over fall break, excep for skating.

    Time management.
    "yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That's why they call it the present."
    In any way possible.

  19. Time management is important because we are able help organize our lives, and prioritize our studies. I learned about rewarding ourselves to get used to wanting to strive to work towards goals. I was inspired to work harder on homework and not procrastinate. This is in relation to my Capstone because I need to prioritize lessons and topics.

    For fall break, I am staying at home and going to play rehearsals! :)

  21. 1. It is important to know about, because time management will be able to help with not being in stress to much.
    2. "C" Fever, and the list of greater to lesser tasks.
    3. What some people do to procrastinate.
    4. How much time I should spend on my homework.
    5. Well I will being spending time at sunshine acres with the dogs and kids, so I will need to shorten some time on other tasks to be able to go.
    6. Well I will be reading, writing book ideas, playing video games, doing martial arts, watching movies and shows with family, and doing homework.
    That is it in one sentence, so basically I will spend time with family and friends if that will be possible.

  22. 1) so that we can keep track of time and get things done before they are actually due.
    2) circadian rhythms and that we all work better at different times of the day.
    3) no, it was kind-of boring
    4) I can get a better planner and write all my homework in.
    5) we need time management to get everything done in time and actually get our project done.
    6) over fall break I am going to California (San Jose, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, & Holister) for my uncles wedding.....=)

  24. 1. I think time management is good because it keeps you from procrastinating and keep yourself from losing track of time.

    2. I learned how to conquer procrastination and to have good time management.

    3. The rocks in the jar, 86,400 seconds slide, and the be the bunny slide.

    4. I would start using a planner because of short term memory loss remembering things is hard and to figure out a time schedule.

    5. We will need good time management to finish our projects so we don't procrastinate on it.

    6. What I will be doing for fall break will be playing Call of Duty and hanging out with my friends...and sleeping.

  27. 1) Time management makes you more efficient with your work and helps promote good habits.

    2) Practicaly everything in the PowerPoint.

    3) "Work your A's off" and "Circanian rhythms".

    4) I could stop procrastinating and do the "Work your A's off" routine.

    5) This would help promote good habits and make me more responsible, therefor making me a better leader.

    6) I will be studying for all my classes, work for some money, and work out and hopefully drop ten pounds!
