Time Management For URI Students

Studying/ Homework!

For every hour in class, spend three hours studying or doing homework!!!

Don’t overkill (brain only absorbs twenty minutes of information at a time!!!!

Sleeping!

Adults need 7-8 hours of sleep a night

Don’t accumulate to much sleep debt!

Lack of sleep impairs performance!!!

Don’t Sleep in class!!!

200 minutes a week no more than 60 minutes a session

“Exercise gives you endorphins, endorphins make you happy...”

Sleep better, less stress

Less disease, physically healthier

Four Quadrants

Questions:

What did we just do?

How did you feel when students put tasks in different quadrants than you?

Do you feel it could have gone into another quadrant?

If you only continuously do things in quadrant 1 what might happen and why?

Which quadrant(s) could you focus on minimizing? Why?

During which tasks do you feel the most emotionally and physically balanced?
