- W2547053964 abstract "In The Fellowship of the Ring, the wizard Gandalf observed that everyone has the same daunting challenge. He said, All we have to do is decide how to use the time that is given us (Tolkien, 2012, p. 50). Time management is a common goal but an uncommon achievement. People who schedule time so that self-determined priorities receive sufficient attention feel more in control of their lives, experience greater satisfaction, and have a better record at work (Seligman, 2012). On the other hand, parents who schedule too many tasks for themselves may not spend enough time with daughters and sons. Some adolescents, moreover, seem as busy as their parents, juggling responsibilities for classes and after-school activities (Boyd, 2014; Gardner & Davis, 2014).Adolescents need guidance so they can acquire the benefits of learning how to manage time, and society expects public schools and families to provide students with practical lessons that enable them to adjust to this complex aspect of life in a rapidly changing society. This article will provide a rationale for why schools should assess how adolescents view time management. It will also report findings from a polling study about the time management experiences of students at one junior high school and explore how the poll findings implicate the way schools schedule activities. Finally, it will recommend ways for both students and schools to improve how they use time.Overview of the StudyDuring elementary school, students have to meet the expectations of one teacher who provides leadership within a self-contained classroom. In junior high school, conditions change as students must satisfy expectations of multiple teachers representing separate subjects in the curriculum. When students enter junior high, their days of recess are behind them; peer pressures become far more prominent; social networks are a high priority; and everyone undergoes significant changes in physical, emotional, and mental development (Strom & Strom, 2014). Inviting the opinions of adolescents can reveal a unique perspective that is based on their daily experiences in school, including what aspects of learning they value; what opportunities they believe are missing; what forms of instruction they prefer; and what factors influence their motivation, engagement, and satisfaction.Many adolescents are neither vocal nor assertive in public forums about education issues, so gathering their opinions requires the use of procedures that they trust. One format that meets these conditions is Internet polling. Students are willing to share opinions when their responses are anonymous. Based upon their first-hand experience with social media, they consider online polling to be a safe form of self-disclosure, Popular television programs like American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, and America's Got Talent invite the audience to log on or phone in and vote. The oppor- tunity to influence decisions about which contestants win and which are eliminated motivates viewers to become more involved than when they are only passive observers.Student polling enables adolescents to have their voices heard. Polling conveys the message that faculty, parents, elected officials, and members of the community consider adolescents' impressions about school as a necessary information source for improving education. More specifically, the purpose of student polling is to determine how learning needs are being met and ways in which to make school experiences more helpful and satisfying. We devised ten online polls in 2008 and field-tested them with 1,100 students at Title I schools. Since then, 15,000 students have completed polls. The polls are accessible without cost to secondary principals who formally agree that polls will be used for improvement of practices at their school and for addition to a normative data bank of student opinion reflecting demographics (Strom & Strom, 2016).Little is known about the reasoning that adolescents use for deciding how to allocate time. …" @default.
