Health expert advice.

Professor and consultant of family and community medicine, Professor Tawfiq Ahmed Khoja, advised all male and female students, before returning safely to schools, to pay attention to the time management factor, pointing out that there is a lack of interest in the importance of time among many students, perhaps due to their young age and lack of sense of responsibility, and this matter has a strong impact on Decreased educational attainment and low academic level. Students who manage time in the right way do not face problems during the school year, unlike students who do not give time any importance, especially in the education aspect. They face many problems, including the accumulation of lessons, and the inability to review lessons at the end of the year due to the accumulation of materials.

Achieving excellence and success

He said that managing time in the right way achieves excellence and success and contributes to raising the productivity of the individual, and there is a proverb that emphasizes the importance of time, which is “time is like a sword if you do not cut it,” and the other important aspect is the role of parents in guiding their children, as they are very lenient with them, which loses the role of The censor and its importance, the responsibility in managing time is shared between students and their parents.

Time wasting factors

Regarding the factors that lead to wasting daily time, he said

An important question. Unfortunately, electronic devices have become the preoccupation of young children and adolescents in our time, especially electronic games that took a large part of their day, as most of them spend most of their time with these games to the extent that they are not indispensable even in their bedrooms. To imagine the size of the impact that results from these games, the impact does not depend on poor educational attainment only, but there are serious repercussions on the health of the body, and I also do not fail to point out that since the spread of the Corona pandemic, electronic game companies have taken advantage of the opportunity and circumstances and dedicated their role in producing more games This is what helped children, young and old, to penetrate this world, which had a great social impact on their lives.

Define a daily program

Regarding the methods that may contribute to effective time management, Professor Khoja concluded by saying:

From my point of view, defining a clear daily program such as a work schedule helps a lot in managing time in a correct manner. If we take into account that the student spends 7 hours in his school, then when he returns home in the second or third, he has another 7 hours before he goes to sleep at night, and this The hours that must be invested correctly, as 3-4 hours can be devoted to reviewing lessons, solving assignments and preparing for tomorrow, and only two hours for the digital world and electronic games, and it is also important to sleep healthy after ten and wake up early so that the body gets enough hours of sleep, and the student is active and not He complains of lethargy and laziness during the day.

Organizing time does not mean making the individual a machine, but rather controlling and investing time in a correct manner, as well as investing the days of the weekly vacation in a correct and positive manner. School supplies and tools.
