9. Procrastination and Time
Management: Are They Related?
• Putting things off wastes your time, energy and
thoughts.
• When you procrastinate you worry because you
know you have a task that you need to complete,
and while worrying you also waste time.
• Good time management skills equal a lack of
procrastination.
10. Still Procrastinating?Ferrari2010
• Joseph Ferrari, Ph.D.
• Professor of Psychology at DePaul
University.
• He is also the American
Psychological Association’s main
resource on Procrastination.
• Has been doing research on
Procrastination for the last 25
years.
11. Characteristics of
an Academic Procrastinator
• Take longer to return class assignments.
• Spend more hours working on projects and
studying, than others.
• Sometimes engage in cheating and plagiarism.
• It does not matter how early they start to work
on a project, it still takes a long time to finish it.
• Have more incomplete homework and course
work assignments.
Can you relate to any of these examples?
12. Lets Take a Poll!
QUESTION: How effective are you at Time-Management? Do
you manage time, or does time get away from you?
Be honest
ANSWER OPTIONS:
• I manage my time well in most areas
• I manage time well in SOME areas
• I hope to manage time better
• Time gets away from me in some areas
• Time gets away from me routinely
14. Use a Calendar
1. Students: Use a Semester Calendar
For Work: Use a 12 Month calendar
• This can be completed on your own. Do not forget!
2. Project Schedule and Weekly Calendar
A. On your weekly calendar start by adding activities that
are not flexible or fixed (Class, Special Projects, Work,
Sleep).
B. Determine how many hours each of your classes,
activities, work or your project will take in study or prep
time.
C. Add your study or prep time to your weekly calendar.
Be realistic!
15. Create a Daily To-Do List
www.lsc.sas.cornell.edu
1. Write down everything you would like to
accomplish tomorrow.
2. Look at each item and if it seems too big a
task, break it down into smaller pieces.
3. Prioritize your list. A = High Priority, B =
Medium Priority and C = Low Priority.
4. Think about when you will get your tasks
done.
17. The Five Day Study Plan
• An Early Start is the Key
• Start early and use short, frequent study sessions.
• The human brain learns academic material faster and better
when learned in brief blocks of time spread out over longer
periods of time, rather than in a few lengthy sessions.
• For example, you will perform better on an exam if you spend
one hour studying each day for 20 days than if you spend 10
hours studying each day for two days before an exam.
18. The Five Day Study Plan
Many students have found that this plan gets good results!
Keys to the Five Day Plan:
• Space out learning over 5 days.
• During each day, prepare a new chapter or chunk of
information, then review previous material.
• Divide material so you can work on it in chunks.
• Use active learning strategies (writing and reciting) to study
the material.
• Use self-testing techniques to monitor your learning.
Eight to ten hours of studying may be required for an A or a B on
an exam. This is just a general guideline. You may need to allot
more or less time depending on the difficulty of the class.
