Manage Your Time for Success in Online Coursework!


Time management is an essential skill for college students taking online classes. Online learning provides wonderful flexibility. However, without the structure of a traditional classroom, it can be easy to fall behind and feel overwhelmed by deadlines. Effective time management enables you to prioritize tasks, set achievable goals, and avoid procrastination, all of which help support your academic success. The good news is that like any skill, time management can be learned! Check out Coastline's 2-Week Noncredit course, EDUC C098N: Managing Your Time Online!


Course Objectives:

 

  • Evaluate and realign how you use your time with your values and goals
  • Deconstruct large projects and papers into smaller, more manageable tasks
  • Overcome procrastination and stay motivated
  • Design an organizational system that works for YOU to achieve your goals

 

Course Dates: July 22 – Aug 16
