Time Monitoring Worksheet

Assessment Description

In this assignment there are two parts in the attached worksheet to complete. The first is a time log in which you will monitor and write down all that you do within a 3-day time period. In the second part of the worksheet you will reflect on your completed time log from part 1 and write a short 250-500 word summary of your experience.

Part 1: Monitor your time in hourly increments.

1. Use the time monitoring log provided in the worksheet to write down what you did each hour of the day, starting at 5 a.m. and ending at 10 p.m. Even if you do not get up until 10 a.m., you still need to record 5 a.m. - 9 a.m. as “sleep.”
2. Do not overdo the recording; record the primary activity for the hour. At most, record two activities per hour.

Part 2: Reflection

On day four, review your completed time monitoring log from part 1 of the worksheet in order to take a serious look at how you use your time each day.   Use the questions in the instructions for part 2 to guide your writing.

APA format is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
