There are only so many hours in a week. Most of us have busy schedules, so it’s important to think about the way you current spend your time and then plan how you could
organize and plan your time for your online course. For this assignment, you’ll be asked to assess your current schedule and the hourly amount of time spent on various
activities. You’ll then be asked to create a tentative weekly schedule where you set aside time specifically for your online class.
