CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

Rationale of the Study

Time management is the set of skills, tools, and techniques that a person

employs to complete a specific task. When setting a goal, one of the things you'll

need is time management. This motivates the individual to achieve the goal they

set. The time-bound aspect of a goal allows for progress tracking, whereas without

it, it will be meaningless. All goals that are set should be timely, meaning that there

is a set deadline attached to the goal (Leigh Anthony, n.d). This motivates

individuals to complete the task within a specific time frame. It also offers the

knowledge required to develop a strategy in order to meet the goal within the

timeframe specified. Individuals can focus the majority of their time each day by

setting goals. Individuals are more capable of organizing their workloads based on

the their goals, and they manage their time more effectively at works.

Time is mostly addressed in ethical reflections on lifetime or in teaching

time management skills (Grauer et al, 2022). A study from Germany introduces the

concept of time as a resource for sustainability before presenting an analysis of

how time in this sense is addressed in 2,149 German curricula, covering all grades
and school forms. It was then discovered that an engagement with time as a

resource for sustainability is rare in formal education.

In a recent study of (Demirdag, 2021), it was shown the relationship between

university students' communication skills, free time management, and motivation

levels are determined that there are positive and meaningful relationships between

students' motivation and the subscales of communication skills and free time

management. These subscales include goal setting and technique, free time

attitude, scheduling, evaluating, respect, ability of expression, desire, democratic

attitude, value, and obstacles. In addition, a regression analysis shows that students'

motivation is predicted by their free time management and communication skills.

The researchers strongly believe that in every aspect of the daily routine and

goal of every students of Saint Cecilia's College - Cebu Incorporated asserts time

management. As a result, the purpose of the paper is to study and evaluate the

relevance of time management in goal setting of students in Saint Cecilia's College

- Cebu Incorporated.
Conceptual Framework and Theoretical Framework

Figure 1.0 Conceptual Framework of the study

The first frame illustrates the significance of time management in goal


setting. It contributes greater clarity, provide a better quality of work, and lessens
the stress and anxiety of students. In the society where the students belong, there
are factors that ruins their management of time and it would be the basis of the
researchers on how students perceive the essence of time management.
The second frame illustrates the effects of setting goals and consider
student’s competency in achieving goals.
Statement of the Problem
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the relevance of time management in
goal setting on HUMSS students' academic performance at St. Cecilia's College,
Cebu, Inc.
Specifically, this study seeks to answer the following questions:

1. What is the respondents’ demographic profile in terms of:

1.1 Age

1.2 Grade Level

1.3 Level of Competency

1.4 Extracurricular Activities

2. How do they perceive time management?

3. How effective is time management in achieving a goal?

4. Is there a significant relationship between time management and goal setting?

5.What are the drawbacks of time management?

NULL HYPOTHESIS

HO1: There is a significant relationship between time management and goal

setting.
SIGNIFANCE OF THE STUDY

The research study will assist readers in understanding the relevance of time

management in goal setting. Future studies may serve as a foundation for future

studies that they will conduct.

This study will be a benefit to the following:

Students. In a student's hectic schedule, time management can be extremely

beneficial. It ensures that students are well prepared, organized, and focused in

order to manage their daily lives and finish academic assignments on time. It can

lead to increased success, but it is a skill that students must learn and practice.

Teachers. Time management is a crucial skill to have. This can be used in the

classroom by teachers to maximize learning opportunities for students. Time

management is essential because it allows you to prioritize your tasks. After you've

made a list of your daily tasks, you'll need to decide what to do first.

Parents. Give children roles and responsibilities as they reach adulthood. It

appears to work better than the reactive habit of asking or telling them to do

something.

Community. Maintain a healthy balance of volunteer time, personal time, work

time, and time for other people and interests. Complete priority responsibilities.

Take advantage of idle time without feeling guilty.


Future Researchers. The findings of this study will serve as a foundation and

resource for potential researchers seeking additional data and concepts.

Definition of Terms

For a better and clear understanding about this study, the following terms

are defined:

Deadline - pertains on the allocated time frame given to accomplish a specific

responsibility. The study uses the term as the factor that deliberates the priority that

has to be fulfilled.

Goal Setting - refers to how the students organize and accomplish a goal. In this

study, the term is used as the context of the highlight of the study.

Motivation - refers to the dedication of the respondents in achieving and

accomplishing a goal.

Time - depicts on the duration of the working process of the respondents in

reaching a goal.

Time Management - essentially means on how the time is organized accordingly

with the corresponding work or responsibilities. In this study, it is the main focus

on how relevant it is in reaching a goal.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Goal setting is an important component in successful teaching and learning,

but relatively little is known about its impact on course persistence and

achievement in massive open online courses. We compared the effects of two

groups of learners who received different writing prompts at the start of their

course using an experimental design and a range of data, including student

compositions, content-related assignment attempts, and quantitative

accomplishment in the courses. Although there were no overall effects of writing

prompt type on the dependent variables, when goal compositions were investigated

and compared more closely using qualitative coding, there were highly statistically

significant differences. Participants who included either learning or performance

goals in their written responses to prompts performed better and were engaged in

learning longer than participants whose written responses did not fall into either of

these categories Li Kun et al (2021).

When controlling for the typical effect of prior academic performance,

research at the University of New South Wales with Defense Force Academy

students found time management skills considerably increase the academic results
of male students but not female students. While a great deal of prior research has

shown a favorable relationship between time management and academic

performance in civilian contexts, there is a dearth of study on this relationship in

dual-military or work and academic settings. By examining the effectiveness of a

direct training intervention in time-management skills, our research builds on

numerous national and international studies. Roberts et. al (2021).
