The problem
Students don’t manage their time and tasks well
They Overestimate how much time they have and Underestimate the time they need. They don’t plan and end up cutting corners.

They get stressed and their grades suffer
Poor time and workload management go hand in hand with stress, anxiety, and undesirable academic outcomes.
