Activity:

On your calendar of choice (suggestions include Google calendar or paper calendar and pen), begin by first recording all assignment due dates and exam dates from all of your syllabi. If you have any important meetings or appointments, be sure to make note of all of them on your calendar as well. With these important deadlines and priorities in mind, you will be able to utilize the Eisenhower or ABCDE Method on a daily and/or weekly basis to better manage your available time. Once you complete modules 5 and 6 be sure to add those additional priorities into your schedule.
