Some Time Management Strategies Students Can Use

Sunday, April 11th, 2010

This is an average article about time management for students.  This article gives you some tips, but you could have more tips like focusing on priority management…  That is where you are going to save your time.  Organizational management is where you are going to get more time as well.   The more organized you are, the less time you spend on looking for stuff.  It is very important to know more than just how to do things faster and more efficiently.  At any result, take a read of the article and determine if you can use any of these strategies.


In the school we learn many things: languages, mathematics, biology, chemistry; the next step after school is college, and the load of homework and knowledge just increases exponentially. If we don’t have good strategies to effectively manage our time, in no time we will run out of time and will be inside a cycle of stress and anxiety.

The bad thing about the current education format in many parts of the World, is that we as students, don’t get education on how to properly manage our time. And what is worse, we are getting bombarded with assignments and projects, so we never get the time to reflect about this issue.

If you are a student and you are reading this article, you are very steps ahead the majority of students around the World. At least I take for granted that you know there are some effective ways to manage your time during this phase in life. Most people just continue with useless time management tactics and they carry on the ignorance to their adult life, living a life of stress and deadlines.

Three of the basic time management strategies every student must integrate in their life are: planning, prioritizing and focusing.

Planning is the first step. You can start very basic with just a notebook and a pen. At the very start of your day, jot down your to do list for the day. If you are making big task, break it down in steps and put some of these smaller steps as part of your day.

The second step is to prioritize. When you are coupling time management and studying, you’ll have to know which ones are the tasks that are truly important and put them first on the list. Experts recommend doing the task that is more time consuming and boring first. This way you’ll be mentally freer the rest of the day!

Finally, you’ll need to focus. During teenage years this can be pretty hard. Text messages, IM, calls, they all contribute to losing focus. However when the time comes to do what we have to do, focusing will have to be exercised. Turn down all elements that distract you and get to the task at hand!
