UNV503 Week 1 Time Monitoring Worksheet Assignment
Details:
This assignment will help you develop an
important skill for college and everyday life – time management. For this
assignment, you will keep an informal time log in which you note all your
activities for 3 days, from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Then, you will review your
activities to identify times when you were not productive. You should use this
information for planning ways to make better use your time.
Part 1: Monitor your time in hourly
increments.
1. Use the
Time Monitoring Worksheet to write down what you did each hour of the day,
starting at 5 a.m. and ending at 10 p.m. Even if you do not get up until 10
a.m., you still need to record 5 a.m. – 9 a.m. as “sleep.”
2. Do not
overdo the recording; record the primary activity for the hour. At most, record
two activities per hour.
Part 2: Reflection
On day four, review your completed Time
Monitoring Worksheet in order to take a serious look at how you use your time
each day.
Write a 250 – 500 word reflection on how you
manage your time. Include the following in your reflection:
1. What
are some things you can do more efficiently?
2. What
are the main items/tasks that take up most of your time?
3. Do you
see areas in your daily routine where you can make adjustments to become more
productive?
4. Do you
have any “black holes” that unnecessarily suck up a lot of your time?
