Managing stress with good time management means organizing and prioritizing tasks to increase productivity while preventing oneself from getting overwhelmed. A review of 31 years of research found that time management techniques affect academic performance and stress.
The Managing Stress With Good Time Management handout shares findings from studies on the topic. More importantly, it outlines 6 strategies for clients to manage their time effectively, such as using a daily planner and setting specific time blocks.
Learning time management helps kids and teens develop positive habits that allow them to feel more balanced and experience less tension, especially with their academics. Parents can offer additional support by providing tools at home — a planner, calendar, or digital app.
