My time management throughout the year

In media time management is essential. I was looking to ensure that I had put the different tasks I had for media in different days/lessons. At the beginning of the year we were told to do a school magazine, this was a simple task. After this we were given the task of doing our front cover, double page spread and contents page. I decided upon spending 3 weeks on my front cover, 4 on double page spread and only 2 on my contents. I did work during my lessons and within the time I had set myself I completed the task which was at hand. It was essential that I ensured I stuck to this schedule, luckily I did. The lesson time I had in this and a little bit outside of lessons meant I was able to complete all my coursework in this time.

For my evaluation I set myself 1 week to do all 7 questions, a question a day. I decided upon doing one a day so I was not pushing myself to do more and got it done fairly quickly and did not have to rush it in one night. I feel here is a good example of my time management as it shows how I sectioned off time purely for my evaluation.

Finally time management to do my blog. I have to admit there was not much structure in putting research and audience feedback on my blog, I just put research up if I felt it was good and relevant to my blog or magazine.
