Time Management

In college life, we should learn how to manage time to avoid getting overloaded with school works and to avoid procrastinating as well. According to Purdue University Global (2018), here are the tips to do time management:

we should have a planner or a to-do list of all the activities for the day. Do the easiest tasks first to avoid stress as well. 

We should only do one thing at a time. 

And lastly, don’t forget to have a break but we should use our breaktime wisely to save time because time is gold.

Socialization

The new form of socialization in college life is video call oe online school learning. Due to covid19 pandemic, we are not allowed to have face to face classes that’s why we have classes virtually. We interact with our classmates and teachers through chat, email, video call and virtual meetings to share ideas or do collaborative school works.

Studying with other students in the same class is a great way to help each other improve their grades. You will also be more motivated and will be able to help each other with things  you may not understand. (Monro, 2016)

Due to lockdown and face to face is prohibited, collaboration and group study is done through online interaction.
