1 Assignment 2
Time Monitoring Worksheet
Details:
In this assignment there
are two parts to complete. The first is a time log in which you will monitor
and write down all that you do within a 3-day time period. In the second
portion of the assignment you will reflect on your completed worksheet from
part 1 and write a short 250-word summary of your experience. Use the questions
in Part 2: Reflection instructions to guide your writing.
Part 1: Monitor your time
in hourly increments.
1- Use the Time Monitoring
Worksheet to write down what you did each hour of the day, starting at 5 a.m.
and ending at 10 p.m. Even if you do not get up until 10 a.m., you still need
to record 5 a.m. – 9 a.m. as “sleep.”
2- Do not overdo the
recording; record the primary activity for the hour. At most, record two
activities per hour.
Part 2: Reflection
On day four, review your
completed Time Monitoring Worksheet in order to take a serious look at how you
use your time each day.
Write a 250-500-word
reflection on how you manage your time. Include the following in your
reflection:
1- What are some things you
can do more efficiently?
2- What are the main
items/tasks that take up most of your time?
3- Do you see areas in
your daily routine where you can make adjustments to become more productive?
4- Do you have any “black
holes” that unnecessarily suck up a lot of your time?
APA format is not
required, but solid academic writing is expected.
You are not required to
submit this assignment to Turnitin.
