I’ve never written a blog before, so here’s my first attempt at it! The questions posed to me are: How realistic do you think it will be for you to adhere to a schedule in order to devote the time necessary to complete the required work in your online courses? What measures will you take to ensure that this happens?
In all honesty, I don’t think I will ever in my life have a consistent set schedule/ routine. My life changes so much week to week when it comes to school, work, and life responsibilities. However, I can definitely be cognizant of this reality and use time management skills to the best of my ability in order to maintain all of my commitments. I know I can devote the time necessary to my studies, but it won’t reflect a normal schedule- sometimes the best time for me to get work done will be after a night shift at 6:00 am, other times I might have to dedicate an entire day off of work to get ahead on my school work so I don’t subsequently fall behind. I think the most important way I can devote the necessary time to my online course work is by understanding the time commitment necessary for each assignment, and then subsequently dividing up that work to accommodate for my hectic work schedule. That being said, I should definitely try to prioritize completing my work earlier in the week far before deadlines to ensure that in the event I don’t complete the work in a timely manner, I can still adjust and complete all of the assignments before their due dates.
