Poor time management among teachers encompasses their struggle to efficiently distribute time and resources to fulfil their educational responsibilities. This may involve a lack of clear priorities, a failure to plan, and inefficient time utilisation, ultimately leading to excessive workloads, missed deadlines, and reduced productivity. Similarly, poor time management extends to instances where students or educators are unable to effectively allocate and utilise their time to complete academic assignments, engage in classroom discussions, or meet established deadlines. In an online educational setting, instances of poor time management may manifest as follows:
- Not planning and prioritising tasks effectively
- Getting distracted by non-academic activities.
- Missing deadlines for assignments
- Failing to log in to the online class platform regularly.
