Timetabling

Timetabling: Managing your commitments

Making a study timetable can help you to organise your time. It can act as a reminder to focus, but it can also remind us to take a break, and the breaks are just as important as the time spent studying. Everyone’s timetable looks different. Your classes might be the same as other people’s, but your homework and study breaks can be taken at different times. Someone who likes mornings may have a very different timetable to someone who likes to stay up late at night. The top left video looks at strategies, and the bottom left video is a very quick guide to using Outlook calendar within your SRUC Outlook account.
