For me time management is a huge issue. When I have my time planned out I am a far more successful student, when I do not have my time laid out I am stressed out and un organized. The time management strategy that I chose to use was the fritter finder. I know that I have practice and rehab everyday so using the schedule to know where my free time is available is really helpful for me. For me I have a lot more homework in some courses than others an my wednesdays and thursdays are very packed. every thursday I have a chemistry lab that I need to have read and be prepared for a quiz on it. since my wednesdays are very packed the fritter finder showed me that I need to use my free time on tuesday in order to read it because if I leave it until wednesday I will be rushed and not do it as well as I could. The fritter finder helped me in chemistry especially because as you can see in my picture my tuesdays are very empty and I need to take advantage of that time.
When looking at my fritter finder I also realized that with my night class taking up a large portion of my wednesday night I need to plan ahead and get my earth science homework done for my recitation. Lots of my days are completely full and others are not very busy, so instead of being lazy and not doing anything on my days off I need to do work and get some of my work load off for wednesdays and thursdays.
Fitz and I have a lot of the same problems with time management. Like him, if I don't have a schedule I get pretty stressed out, but when I do have a schedule I feel like I'm pretty successful. The fritter finder can definitely help with time management and knowing when all your free time is and when you should study and when you can take some time for yourself. Along with the D's Do's and Due's I also find this strategy very helpful for me.
ReplyDeleteI liked the fact that Fitzy did the Fritter Finder just like I did. I felt like is was the best one to do for the time being because like I said in my comment on Matthews blog as of right now the fritter finder is the one that i have to most understanding of. And hopefully with us all being good friends and being with each other everyday and helping each other study we could learn a thing or two from each other about the best, easiest ways to figure out how to get it done.
ReplyDeleteFritter Finder is an effective know to understand when you have time to do work. Especially when being an athlete you have less time to finish your so it is definitely an advantage to make a fritter finder and plan out your week. This has helped me a lot since I made mine a few weeks ago.
