Assignment one: Time Management Field Trip
Time management is a very personal, individualized issue, so it won’t work well for everyone in the class to complete a one-size-fits-all type of assignment. Instead, we will complete a Time Management field trip, allowing you to explore different resources and select and use those ideas you find most relevant. Detailed directions on completing the field trip are included in the assignment sheet and template, available in(i will upload it ) Microsoft Word Format or as a PDF.
Grading Rubric:
Here is how your grade for the time management field trip will be determined:

Assignment Two: Discussions
For most of us, if we had a broken foot, we would go to the doctor and get it fixed. However, unlike a broken foot, poor time management is an area in which people are often aware that they are hurting themselves by not being more effective at, yet continue to accept the situation and negative consequences. What are some reasons that people do not wish to make the changes required to improve their time management, and in some cases, even brag or laugh about their lack of success in managing their time? Can anything be done to help change this mindset?
