Managing School, Work, and Personal Life
Engage in a discussion or an intellectual debate on the following scenarios:

Looking back on your IT program, what problems have you had managing or balancing your school workload with the demands of your work and personal life? What could you have done differently to eliminate any of these problems?
Consider the following scenario: Your supervisor will be out of the office for the day, but has left several projects for you to complete. You complete them with two hours left in your work day. Since your work is done, how would you make the most of the remaining time?
Time management is necessary for a productive and efficient career life. There are many technical tools that are very helpful to improve and support time management. Search and provide examples of such tools. Give your recommendations.
