ABSTRACT
Time management is by all means important in all aspects of our lives. Whether in individual
capacities or in businesses and organizations, use and management of time is equally important.
These considerations have given the researchers the idea to undertake their study regarding the
relationship between time management and students’ academic performance. The main objective
of this study aims to determine the relationship of time management and academic performance
of college student parents. It basically used the descriptive-survey research design in carrying out
the study and in selecting the respondents, via purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using
statistical tools such as frequencies, percentages, weighted mean, standard deviation, regression
and correlation. Findings of the study revealed that there is significant correlation of some
demographic variables such as age of the respondents and educational degree to students’
academic performance. Moreover, time management variable specifically the prioritization
significantly correlates to students’ academic performance while other variables: procrastination
and socialization have no significant relationship to students’ academic performance. Based on
these findings, it is suggested that, students should observe and undertake prioritization of their
tasks and responsibilities to improve their academic performance. Moreover, teachers should
also integrate time management concepts and applications in their classes. Trainings and
seminars on time management are also encouraged for the students

CHAPTER I
Introduction
In the modern world, time is precious to anyone. For individuals, time is important in
accomplishing individual tasks on time, and in businesses; every single minute can be converted
to profitability. According to Macam, et. al. (2000) the secret of achieving success in life is to
manage time and resources that everyone possesses equally and paying sufficient attention to
planning.
This can also be the case on institutions such as schools, colleges, and universities.
Coming to classes on time and finishing tasks and assignments are very important

responsibilities of students to achieve their personal goals and ensure better performance. While
various individuals value time differently, offices, colleges and other in absence of prioritization
of the students on their school tasks resulting to procrastinations by some of the students
Students were not aware that procrastination not only waste the teacher’s time but also it
requires teachers to prepare another exam paper just to accommodate the delays. Also, students
usually justify the delays because of the many activities and responsibilities they are doing
outside the school like social activities with families and others. Mitchell (2003) argues that
unfortunately, as dedicated as single mothers are to both their children and their education, in the
end, the time crunch can have devastating effects on the relationship with their children. Students
face many challenges during their studies, some of them describe skipping lectures, feel weak,
drowsy and lack consideration in classes and one of the students fail her module. Time
In addition, this paper focuses on the student and at the same time a parent. Some of them
will not be able to organize duties according to their priorities, so they distracted easily ending
up procrastinating. Therefore, the researcher studies ways to make a student’s more organized

Time management is a skill that every student should not only know but also apply. Here,
there are student-parent complain about running out of time when asked to do a certain task.
Time management is extremely important, especially when it comes to students because it will
boost their grades and enhance their productivity. (Z. Lisa M. S, Robert 2009). The main purpose
of the study is to find out the relationships between of time management and the Academic

CHAPTER II
There are various studies that link time management to students’ academic performance.
For instance, proper time management positively correlates to better academic performance
Kaushar, (2013). There are several factors that can be considered to demonstrate time
management. The study Nashrullah and Khan (2015) identified time management variables to
include planning (Short-range and long-range), time attitude as independent variables linking to
the students’ academic performance. Findings showed that time management variables such as
short-range, long-range and time attitude are significantly correlated to students’ academic
achievement. Another study also posits the time management variables to include independent
18
performance (Adebayo, 2015). Specifically, his study claimed that there is positive relationship
between time management factors such as prioritization, procrastination, socialization and the
Further implications of the results suggest that students should prioritize their tasks, less
activities. Karim, et. al, (2015) also links time management factors to include students attitudes
and behavior on time and management. Their findings suggest that, both student attitudes and
behavior impacts students’ academic performance. King (2002) had also emphasized the
different external forces that challenges time management and these can be comprised of
challenge to one’s ability or expertise, which imposes an unwelcome demand on time, abilities
Another study conducted by Indreica et al. (2011) examined the influence of effective
Findings revealed that, effective management programs elevate the GPA and concluded that
successful students are good time managers. Specifically, factors such as time management
behaviors, time attitudes and control of time are significant predictors of students’ academic
performance. Students’ academic performance is usually measured on the students’ GPA. The
latest study conducted by Jalagat (2016) strongly suggests the use of GPA as a measure of
student academic performance which also agrees with several studies (Adebayo, 2015; Kaushar,
2013). This study is primarily anchored on Adebayo’s utilization of time management variables:
performance.
19
Being a student may already entail a lot of sleepless nights, student mothers also face an
entirely different challenge of having to balance both their studies and being a parent. (Ferrer,
Sevilla 2019). According to an article by Jennifer Paige, who is a mother that worked and
attended college, people who have families, jobs and are trying to obtain a college degree are at a
higher rate of dropping out. This is due to all the stresses of college life, having a family and
maintaining a job. Going back to college while raising a family and working is difficult,
however it can be done. Going to college while parenting and working, are hard tasks for anyone
to take on. Time management is beneficial to both the family and to your college success.
Avoiding procrastination and learning how to manage your schedule will allow personal time
with family and help you complete school assignments on time and study for exams.
Communicate with other students and instructors to understand assignments and read your
syllabus often. Know what your goals are and speak with your counselor regularly to keep on
track. Make sure to plan ahead for those unexpected sick days and doctor visits. Remember that
your health comes first and without it, you might not ever be able to accomplish your goals.
It appears that research in Namibia did not seek the experiences of student mothers in
more detail, the author thus wish to fill this existing gap. Duquaine-Watson (2007) asserts that
there is
a conspicuous lack of attention to the experiences of women who are pursuing degrees while
raising children on their own. This is not something that a mother who is not a student will
experience and it is not something that a student who is not a mother will experience (Lloyd-
Combining motherhood and studying without compromising the activities of either one is
a great dilemma for student mothers. When a woman must focus all her attention on her studies,
20
her behaviour may contrast with her traditional motherhood role (Visick, 2009). While discourse
regarding the “good mother” in any society is based on the traditional motherhood role
(Goodwin & Huppatz, 2010), its definitions vary by society given the different experiences and
challenges of motherhood in diverse cultures (Zhang, 2011). Role challenges cause women to
abandon one role for the sake of the other (Springer et al., 2009). Myths, expectations, and ideals

Procrastination, to put off doing something, especially out of habitual laziness, is a result
of a cultivated habit, and it impacts everyone. A lot of students tend to procrastinate at college.
generally, is the last thing that a student would think to do. Having all kinds of entertainment and
distractions, such as video games, social networks, and heard media, would really not make
students get into study. It is most likely the student’s responsibility, in other words, his ability to
control his passion that makes the student progress and complete his tasks. Most of the students
who live in the dorms, generally, can get distracted easily .If students just spent ten minutes with
each person there, imagine how much time would be left for them to study, even to do anything
personal. More importantly, the student’s uncertainty can really affect his progression at college.
Hesitation will not make a student any better. A lot of students spend a huge amount of time
thinking about the topic they will discuss or write about, and sometimes about the way they are
going to present it, and this will certainly lead them to procrastinate. Eventually, the student’s
Grade Point Average (GPA) will start to decrease the more he puts off the work. However, when
he keeps delaying his work, stress will rise up and more pressure will be on the student, which
will lead him to late submission and his grades will decrease.
21
Students in universities must learn how to manage their time effectively. Fortunately,
there are many techniques that can help them do that. First, students should arrange their
schedule according to their priorities, which means that they should look at the important dates,
such as paper due dates and arrange them according to the size of the assignment and the date it
is due, and then write them down on a calendar as a reminder note. This will make students see
their whole semester a lot easier and simpler (Kelly, 2004). Second, students should get over any
bad feelings that they might face during their educational life, and move beyond them. They
should “schedule time for fun and relaxation just like they would schedule a class” .Studies have
shown that students get higher grades when they are in a good mood, and can get lower when
they are stressed or upset. Finally, according to (Kelly, 2004), students should take notes during
class and ask the professor about anything they do not understand immediately which will save

items.” Thus, there is no doubt that getting organized saves a lot of time. Nonetheless, getting
organized means having your desk cleared, your papers filed, your tasks listed and your events
scheduled. Furthermore, the ways to get organized or manage disorganization that are discussed
in include having an Lor U-shaped desk, keeping a diary as well as creating a “to do” list.
However, the most effective method of managing disorganization according to [3] is “ruthlessly”
getting rid of what you do not need. As a result, by following these steps students will find it
Source Gardiner, 2007 shows the relationship between time management behaviors,
perceived effectiveness, and work related morale and distress in a university context. For
instance, in order for students to manage their time in a good way, they must have a clear
purpose in their study, and be able to answer such questions as, “Are you clear about what is
important for you to achieve in your study“ .Moreover, Gardiner has shown that students are not
able to manage their time as they do not have a clear purpose in their study, getting distracted
and interrupted easily, being unorganized, and not able to plan and prioritize .For example,
having a clear purpose is positively correlated with perceived effectiveness and morale, and
negatively correlated with distress . In addition, avoiding distractions and interruptions such as
procrastination correlates negatively with work related distress. On the other hand, estimating the
time correctly needed for a task is positively related to perceived effectiveness. Moreover, being
good at planning and prioritizing such as scheduling time and working to deadlines is also
positively correlated with perceived effectiveness and work related morale Last but not least,
being organized, such as maintaining a clear working place and emptying your e-mail inbox

essential for managing your time will be a recurring theme in this study because as a college
student-parent in
the college of education you have to learn to balance your time in a way that is an effective and
efficient decision making in determining the top priority. Of course, all students do this, or
should do this, but because you have children (and for many of you a spouse or partner) it
In totality, it has been found that as a student parent, time management is very important
to their studies and that can be reflected to their academic performance. Time management plays
a significant role in the academic development of the students, especially in this time of crisis
wherein delivering of course content to many. In this context, the proper use of time
management has been identified as a means of achieving the standard GWA of an institution
24
instruction. Unarguably, the acceptability of being a student while parenting in their academic
performance received more appreciation. However, to discover the acceptability of this kind of
setup has not been found at large in Jose Rizal Memorial State University, particularly in
Katipunan Campus.
The researchers believed that there is a need to explore, not only to augment the literature
about the academic performance of the student parent. Time management in particular had been
identified as a difficult issue of this setup. With the use of module, students may make an
adjustments dealing with their time management. It may be more difficult for them to deal with it
given that they will be working on their respective home. One may affirm that learning modality
like the use of the module is difficult to manage time and it will affect the academic
performance.
With this, it is the desire of the researcher to further the real power of identifying whether the
time management of a student parent has an affect or will not affect their academic performance
as an education student.

may be in the future, Have several things to do. It is best to do a little bit of work on each one, set
deadlines for completing work, keep important dates (e.g. exam dates, research paper due dates,
etc.) on a single calendar and Believe that there is room for improvement in the way that time is
managed. This can be interpreted that when students prioritize their tasks and responsibilities,
they can achieve their objectives and perform better in their studies.

Table 10 reveals that the t-computed value is less than t-tabular value in both
prioritization, procrastination and overall time management of the college student-parents. Thus,
with the smaller value of t-computed with that of t-tabular, implies failure on the rejection of the
null hypothesis. Hence, it can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between the
time management and the academic performance of the student-parents. This means that time
management of the student-parents does not affect their academic performance. These results,
contradicts the findings of Adebayo (2015) stating that both Procrastination and Prioritization

statistically significant difference between the time management of the student-parents when
analyzed according to sex. Other study found out that females students brought about a positive
result in terms of time management, because they are more effective unlike their male
counterpart. The comparative importance of the variables, for example; time consumer, time

Summary
Time Management in relation to their Academic Performance including the profile of the
respondents and the general weighted average for their academic performance. Descriptive-
correlational method of research was used in the study with the use of an adopted questionnaire.
Frequency count, percentage, mean, t-test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and correlation
coefficient were the main statistical tools used in the study to facilitate the analysis and

women student-parents who were enrolled in the College of Education. It also shows that
83.3 percent were single and it has the bracket of 10, 000 to 15, 000 family income. The
same findings revealed that student-parents were mostly women and were not married.

CONCLUSION
Based on the finding of the study, the researchers hereby concluded that the majority
of the respondents in time management has no significant relationship as to the level of student-
parents’ academic performance (GWA). Thus, the descriptive statistics shows that student-
