Time management

This topic covers time management, a skill which is central not only to our study, but also to our everyday lives. The topic begins by considering why you need to manage (organise) your time. It goes on to show how you can find some time for study, and how you can plan blocks of study time into your week, as well as how to prioritise the study tasks you have to do. Finally, the topic looks at using that time effectively.
