Class Wall Biography
Details:
Participating and getting
to know other students in your class is important in order to create the online
community at GCU. The Class Wall is a place for students to network and get to

share information about you with fellow students.
Here are some things to
consider including in your biography:
1- Your name
2- Where you are from
3- Your family
4- The degree program you
are enrolled in
5- What you currently do
for a living
6- Your hobbies or
interests
7- Motivation for pursuing
a graduate degree
Your biography should be
250-350 words.
Post your biography to the
Class Wall by the end of Day 2 of Topic 1.
Submit your biography to
the appropriate assignment drop box as well as posting it to the Class Wall.
Once other students have
posted their bios, go back to the Class Wall and read them, as well as your

1 Assignment 2
Time Monitoring Worksheet
Details:
This assignment will help
you develop an important skill for college and everyday life – time management.
For this assignment, you will keep an informal time log in which you note all
your activities for 3 days, from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. Then, you will review your
activities to identify times when you were not productive. You should use this
information for planning ways to make better use your time.
Part 1: Monitor your time
in hourly increments.
1- Use
“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. to 10 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.
