Academic Leadership - Time Management Goals (Diego Blank) «Blog Post #3»


Assignment 2: Before the due date, write a blog post in which you reflect
on the time management goals you set on 19/20 Sept. In your paragraph, include whether or not you met your goals,any problems you had, any successes you had, and anything you learned. Also include an updated version of your goals based on your experience. (250 word min.)

     My time management goals for that day was to write down everything i had to down the Apple iPad Calendars, so I would know whenever I had an assignment due for a specified date. Up to now, I did meet my goals, and what I did was very helpful.
     I did not need to remember everything I had to do and it did help manage the time I took to do my homework. What I meant by that was that I did one homework at a time, which actually saved up a lot of time. It also made my schedule seem much less confusing, since the Edmodo schedule is simply a rainbow of colors and boxes of random assignments for each period.
     Now that I got that out of the way, I did indeed find some problems with managing my assignments using the calendar, which are the fact that you cannot organize the work of each class by color, sometimes making my schedule look very messy and complicated to understand.
     Also, the icons for each assignment looks very small and making it hard to read, so I have to click on each icon so I could know what it is about. I learned that organizing my school work would improve my time management dramatically. Thank to this I can make my homework more efficient, freeing up time for other assignments. Next time, I will use a better App, which is specialized for these kinds of things, like a planner for example.
