Abstract
The purpose of this study is to know if time management can really
affect the academic performance of the Grade 11 St. Patrick students of
Baco Catholic School, Inc. The study used a qualitative research design.
The population of the study consisted of twenty-four Grade 11 St. Patrick
students of Baco Catholic School, Inc. The researchers use questionnaires
and the interview method in order to determine the effect of time-
management strategies on the academic performance of St. Patrick 11
students. All the gathered data was evaluated based on it’s components
and criteria for accuracy, reliability, efficiency, and user
friendliness. It was concluded that students who have good time
management skills tend to have higher academic performance, and students
who have poor time management skills could result in decreased outcomes.
The study recommended that the Grade 11 St. Patrick students concentrate
on developing their capacities in time management areas through
practicing different strategies to maximize the things that they can do
in a short span of time, and find the best strategy that suits them.
Students should also set specific and achievable goals for their academic
work; this can help them prioritize using their time wisely and stay
focused on what is most important.

Chapter I
Research Introduction
Throughout the history, there has been great emphasis on the
effective and efficient management of time, which has also been
considered the key to success (Pugh & Nathwani, 2017; Nasrullah & Khan,
2015). According to Savino (2016) time management is an ability to handle
your time wisely to be more efficient in what activities you are doing.
It emphasized the importance of time.
Time management is the process of organizing and planning how to
allocate time effectively and efficiently to achieve specific goals,
tasks, or projects. It involves prioritizing tasks, breaking them down
into smaller, manageable parts, and setting specific deadlines for their
completion. It is the strategy most of the students used to accomplish
the given tasks in a short period of time; time management is an
essential skill to develop as it can significantly impact their academic
performance and overall well-being. Students who manage their time
effectively are more likely to complete their activities, leading to
better academic performance. When students manage their time effectively,
6
they can avoid last-minute cramming, which can lead to stress and
anxiety. Students can accomplish more in less time, allowing them to have
more time for other activities and interests.
In summary, time management is a crucial skill for students to
develop, as it can have a significant impact on their academic success,
stress levels, productivity, and overall well-being.
There are several time management strategies that students can use
to make the most of their time. The first one is the prioritization
strategy, which involves identifying and focusing on tasks that are most
important and urgent. The next one is time blocking, which is the
strategy of breaking your day into blocks of time, each dedicated to a
specific task or activity. By scheduling your tasks, you can ensure that
you have enough time for each task and avoid procrastination. And the
third one is the pomodoro technique; this strategy involves breaking your
work into 25-minute intervals, separated by short breaks. This can help
you stay focused and avoid burnout.
But unfortunately, many students still struggle to use time
management effectively. The reason behind this might be a lack of
awareness; many students may not be aware of the importance of time
management or how to implement it effectively. Procrastination is also a
common problem among students, and it can make it difficult for them to
manage their time effectively. Students may put off important tasks until
the last minute, which can lead to stress and poor performance. The other
factor affecting students’ use of time management is that they may have
7
too many commitments, such as classes, extracurricular activities, part-
time jobs, and household or social obligations. It can be challenging to
balance all of these commitments and manage time effectively. Some
students may struggle with motivation, which can make it difficult to
focus and manage time effectively. They may find it hard to prioritize
tasks and may procrastinate or avoid work altogether. The last one is
that they might be distracted. With the proliferation of digital devices
and social media, it can be challenging for students to stay focused and
avoid distractions. Social media, video games, and other forms of
entertainment can be tempting distractions that consume valuable time.
Time management is a critical skill for students to develop, but it can
be challenging to implement without the right tools and support.
This gives motivation to the researchers to conduct this study to
know if having a time management strategy really has an impact on
academic performance, especially in the written works of HUMSS students.
Statement of the Problem
This study aims to know if having time management strategies can
truly lead to good results on the academic performances or written works
of the Grade 11 St. Patrick of Baco Catholic School, Inc.
To take note this research study is guided by the following
questions that all be justified in further discussions:
8
1. How are the activities and academic performance of HUMSS grade 11
students who use time management strategies?
2. Does having a poor time management strategy really affect students’
performance in school?
3. Does having good time management help the Grade 11 HUMSS students
with their activities?
4. What are the effects of time management strategies on the academic
performance a student?
Scope and Delimitation
This study will only focus on determining the effects of time
management strategies on academic performance, specifically in the
written works of the Grade 11 St. Patrick. The impact of time management
strategies on non-academic parts of students’ lives will be excluded from
this study.
The researchers limited the study to twenty-four (24) students out of
33 enrolled Grade 11 St. Patrick students in the second semester of the
School Year 2022-2023 at Baco Catholic School, Inc.
Conceptual Framework
Time Management Academic Performance of Grade 11
Strategy St. Patrick Students
Figure 1. Conceptual Framework
9
Figure 1 presents the conceptual framework of the study. This study
revolves around two variables. Time Management Strategy as an independent
variable and Academic performance as the dependent variable.
In Figure 1. Time management strategy is a form of self-management with a
clear emphasis on time in understanding what activities to do; how to do
them more efficiently; in what time it should be done and when is the
correct time to the particular activity (Savino, 2016). It is the
technique some of the students use to make the most of their time and
accomplish things in a given period of time without cramming or being
stewards.
Another variable is academic performance, which is the performance shown
by the student in school, in their activities, and especially in their
written works.
This study will examine the effect of having a time management
strategy on students’ academic performance, specifically in their written
works.
Significance of the Study
The researchers believe that this study will not only provide them with
useful information but will also benefit the following groups:
The Students. This study may provide students with information on how to
efficiently use the time management strategy to maximize their academic
performance, specifically in their written works.
10
The Parents. This study will give the parents knowledge on how the
academic performance of the their children are being affected with the
time management strategies that they are using.
The Teachers. At the end of this study, the teachers may help and
support the students to have a strategy for managing their time and to do
it effectively.
The Future Researchers. This study can be their reference when they do
their research. They can also learn about the different strategies that
students use to maximize their school performance.
Definition of Terms
1. Time management – it is the process of organizing and planning how to
divide your time between different activities. In this study, it’s the
coordination of tasks and activities to maximize the effectiveness of an
individual’s efforts.
2. Academic Performance – involves factors such as intellectual level,
personality, motivation, skill interest, and study habits. This study
measures student achievement across various academic subjects.
3. Ability – you could also think of it as the art of having time to do
everything you need to do. In this study, he shows that he has the
ability to bring out the best in others.
4. Knowledge – does much more than just help students hone their thinking
skills; it actually makes learning easier. In this study, it is
11
understanding gained through learning or experience that gives you the

work tasks, such as making lists, determining which items to complete
that day, and executing each task in order of urgency In this study, as a
principle, it means doing first things; as a process,it means them in
their order of importance or urgency.
7. Opportunity - the foregone benefits of doing that activity instead of
others, or whatever is given to do a certain desirable activity. In this
study, the opportunity noun: a chance to do something or a situation in

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Throughout the history, there has been great emphasis on the
effective and efficient management of time, which has also been
15
considered the key to success (Pugh & Nathwani, 2017; Nasrullah & Khan,
2015).
According to San Luis 2020, Time is one precious resource that all
of us would wish to have more, in today’s fast-paced, multitasking,
information overloaded world. Personal time management involves
everything you do. No matter how big and no matter how small, everything
counts. Every knowledge you acquire, each new advice you consider, and
each new skill you develop should be taken into consideration.
Time management is about getting results, not about being busy.
Having a balanced lifestyle should be the key result in having personal
time management. This is the main aspect that many practitioners of
personal time management fail to grasp. (Bartolome, 2016)
Frederick Winslow Taylor gave the concept to use time management for
analyzing time and motion studies of employees with aim to decrease time
wasting and unproductive work. Time management has also been defined as a
form of self-management with a clear emphasis on time in understanding
what activities to do; how to do them more efficiently; in what time it
should be done and when is the correct time to the particular activity
(Savino, 2016).
Time waits for no one. The smart thing for one to do is to be ready
with things to do for any time available. It means making one’s time
productive. Ironically, given the scarcity and potential value of time,
smart management of time is not one of the skills people are usually
16
taught while growing up. No wonder there’s a lot of precious time wasted.
No wonder many people wrestle with time pressure for their entire lives –
there seems, to them, too much to do in too little time. Truth is, there
is enough time for everything. The problem is, people don’t usually
identify the right thing to do at the right time. They inundate
themselves with all kinds of tasks to do all at the same time.
Fortunately, good time management can be learned. Anyone can learn how to
control his or her time – and how to spend it wisely. There are ways to
ensure that the time spent studying gives the maximum amount of learning
possible. (Rios, 2016)
Time management is a tool for increasing the goal of productivity
especially for students who work and study at the same time. (Uchenna
John Obijiaku, 2015)
Reyes (2016) has define time management as the art of arranging,
organizing, scheduling and budgeting one’s time for the purpose of
generating more effectiveness in both work and productivity. It is also
perceived as set of principles, practices, skills, tools and systems that
should work together to achieve and improve the quality of life.
Time management is the process of planning and exercising conscious
control of time spent on activities to increase effectiveness,
efficiency, and productivity. Time management is a skill that every
student should possess to achieve their goals. Buenavides, Banacia,
Bulanadi, Llobrera, Saclolo, & Ugto (2020).
17
According to Brigitte, et. Al. (2011), time management plays a
significant role in improving students’ performance and achievements.
They added that, every student should possess time management to
effectively organize activities, set goals, and prioritize those
activities that requires immediate attention and others. It is also
through time management that the students’ ability to make decisions can
be enhanced thereby using time more effectively. While there is no
universally accepted way to manage time, it is still important for
individuals like students to value time management and apply it
indifferent contexts. In addition, being good at planning and
prioritizing such as scheduling time and working to deadlines is also
positively correlated with perceived effectiveness and work related
morale
It has also been association with low anxiety and greater academic
achievement in students (Jenaabadi, Nastiezaie, & Jalalzaei, 2016).
There have been many studies that found association between greater
academic achievement and effective time management as students acquire
strategies that helps them in meeting competing demands (Nadinloyi et
al., 2013; Kharadze, Gulua, & Davit, 2017).
The curriculums in higher education institutes are designed in a way
that gets to peak and troughs in the workload of student requiring them
to manage between their work-life balance, often without the support of
institution. The non-cognitive personal behavior i.e., perspective of
students regarding time management is also an effective predictor of
18
educational achievement as with poor time management skills it gets
difficult for students to plan their studies and which causes them
anxiety and agitation at the assessment time which usually takes place at
the end of the course (Scherer, Talley, & Fife, 2017). This theory shows
that human beings should construct balance among activities and things
while integrating time management techniques effectively. The success of
students is determined through effective utilization of time at each
phase in distance learning institutions and regular system.
Time management is a set of practices that work together to help you
get more value out of your time with the aim of improving the quality of
your life. On the other hand, Academic performance is the outcome of
education, that is the extent to which a student, teacher, or institution
has achieved their educational goals (Adebayo, 2015). He also added that
prioritization of tasks may make studying and schoolwork less
overwhelming and more enjoyable. Through prioritization, workloads can be
done enjoyably without cramming what things are needed to do or school
demands that are needed to accomplish
Conclusion
This review of the literature examines the concept of time
management, it’s significance, and it’s link to academic success. Time
management is defined as the process of planning and exercising conscious
control of time spent on activities to increase effectiveness,
19
efficiency, and productivity. The review suggests that good time
management skills can be learned and that it is important for
individuals, particularly students, to value time management and apply it
in different contexts. Effective time management is associated with
greater academic achievement, low anxiety, and improved work-related
morale. The review also highlights that the that time management is a
collection of skills that you may use to make the most of your time and
enhance your quality of life.

Chapter III
Methodology
This chapter presents the research design and methodology used in
conducting the study, the data gathering procedure, and the instruments
used in the study. It also shows the methods that the researcher employed
in analyzing and interpreting the study’s data.
Research Design
Since the study involves variables that had an effect on the
students’ academic performance, the expressive investigation plan was
used. To gather knowledge and data, researchers will use qualitative
research.
This study is a Qualitative Research, non-numerical data will be
used to explicate findings, conclusions and recommendations. Qualitative
research aims in-depth understanding of an issue, including an
exploration of the reasons and content for participant believe and
actions, so was often designed to be probing in nature” (Richard [Link]
2010). On the other hand Cobb and Forbes (2002) states that qualitative
research as an approach to the study of human behavior that relies on the
analysis of narrative data to create an interpretation of the meaning of
21
this behaviors from the perspective of the participants themselves ,
within their own social context.
Research Instrumentation
In order to determine the effect of time-management strategies on
the academic performance of grade 11 St. Patrick students, the
researchers prepare a set of questionnaires to be distributed to the
respondents. The questionnaire will consist of questions that are related
to the study. The other research instrument will be an self completion
survey for one of the mentioned population’s subject teachers, it is
given via mail, email, in the internet or SMS.
The response will be evaluated based on its components and criteria
for accuracy, reliability, efficiency, and user friendliness.
Research Population
In this study, the target population is the Grade 11 St. Patrick
students of Baco Catholic School Inc. during the school year 2022-2023.
All Grade 11 HUMSS students were invited to take part in the study. They
were provided with a brief overview of the research as well as
information about confidentiality and research ethics.
The table shown below presents the total number of Grade 11 St.
Patrick students at Baco Catholic School for the school year 2022-2023.
Table 1. Respondents of the Study
22
Respondents Population Sample
Grade 11 St. Patrick 33 24
Total 33 24
Additionally, the researchers concluded that the Grade 11 St.
Patrick students of Baco Catholic School Inc., School Year 2022-2023, are
the best and most appreciated population in this study because they have
more school work, and at the same time, we can see that they can still do
activities they want. They tend to be familiar with the various
strategies for managing time since they completed the Grade 10 level in a
modular learning program the previous year and were able to survive
despite the difficulty of balancing schoolwork and household
responsibilities at the same time. Moreover, they are the one who’s
transitioning from bein6a junior high school student to senior high
school student this school year.
Data Gathering Procedure
After the researchers completed the questionnaire and got the
approval of the research adviser, the data gathering proceeded. The
questionnaires will be distributed and administered to the respondents,
the 24 students of Grade 11 St. Patrick of Baco Catholic School Inc.,
School Year 2022-2023, with the permission and supervision of their class
adviser. The retrieval of the instruments will take place in 15–20
23
minutes, allowing ample time and comfort for the respondents to answer
every question.
Meanwhile, the completed survey questionnaire will be retrieved to
ensure the accuracy of the responses and a high percentage of retrieval.
The researchers will analyze and interpret the results using the
statistical treatment
Chapter IV
Results and Discussion
The main focus of this chapter is to interpret and discuss the
collected data from the respondent’s answers to the questionnaire. The
results of the data gathering that has been conducted with the
respondents will greatly contribute and give enough information to the
researchers for them to know the effects of time management strategies on
the academic performance of the students. Subsequently, these findings
will also lead to a better understanding of the effectiveness of time
management strategies on a student’s school performance. Moreover, this
chapter will tackle the experiences of the 24 respondents, who are Grade
11 HUMSS students. The summary of the respondents answers to the given
questionnaires is written below:
A. Survey
24
[Link] do you think are the effect of time management strategies to your
performance in school? Explain.
In summary of the information researchers have gathered, when
students divide their time wisely, they can complete their school
activities on time and perform well in their academic tasks without
cramming. Time management also helps them increase productivity and
reduce stress, making it easier for them to perform well in tests and
other school activities.
2. Is time management can really be helpful to your academic performance
specifically in your written works? Explain.
In relation to the information researchers have compiled, all of the
respondents answered yes to this question. Having a time management
technique is very helpful to their academic performance, especially their
written work. It helps them control their time and be more efficient at
doing tasks. This also helps them organize their to-do list and schedule
tasks in a manageable time frame, making their written work easier to
accomplish and preventing cramming.
3. Is your time management skill is enough? Explain.
After examining the information that has been gathered from the
respondents, most of them answered no. They feel that their time
management skills are not enough, even though they know how to manage
their time. Sometimes they still struggle to finish their activities on
time, which is why they tend to cram. The students acknowledge that they
25
often let their dopamine get ahead of them, leading to a lack of time to
finish their school activities. They also admit that they get distracted
by things they want to do instead of focusing on what they need to do.
While the other respondents who responded yes stated that they can pass
their activities on time and do the things they want to do because their
skill is enough managing time. One of the respondents stated also that
their time management skill is balance.
4. Can you balance your time doing activities and the things you want to
do? Explain.
The students face many distractions while doing their activities but
manage to balance them by using time management techniques. Most of the
students answered no; they couldn’t balance it. But some of them
explained that they set limits on doing things they wanted to do; they
set alarms to remind them of schoolwork that needed to be done. They
admit that they sometimes struggle to balance their time because they
tend to do fun things and do what they want instead of focusing on the
things that are more important. They also acknowledge that they are
easily attracted to using their phones and social media, which leads to
being distracted and not being able to do their schoolwork.
5. Have you ever experienced passing your activities late? Explain.
Considering the answers of the respondents we have gathered, most of
the Grade 11 St. Patrick students experienced passing their activities
late, and they attribute it to their insufficient time management skills.
However, when they do pass their activities late, they tell their teacher
26
the real reason why. Some of these students state that they sometimes
struggle to understand the activities and get distracted by unnecessary
things. They also admit that their laziness caused them to finish their
activities late or that there were so many things to do that it was
difficult to finish everything on time. The rest of the respondents who
answered no, stated that the reason why they don’t pass late is because
they are focus and and also avoid distractions. One student answered
sometimes, because of their personal matter.
6. In what way you use your time wisely and avoid distractions?
The respondents use their time wisely by doing tasks one at a time;
if they are unable to finish the task, they look for other activities
that are fun to do for them to refresh or rest and not burn out. Some of
them prioritize completing their activities on time by having a time
management strategy and scheduling each task or activity; they avoid
doing things that are unimportant and not beneficial for them or their
goals.
B. Survey
Researchers have gathered negative results from an self
completion survey with one of the subject teachers of Grade 11 St.
Patrick, who’s handling 4 subjects in that said class. The results
also relate to the respondents’ responses to survey question number
five. That most of students pass their assignments/activities later
than they should. The majority of students also acknowledge in survey
27
question number three that they lack sufficient time management
skills.
Here is a pie chart that shows the results of the researchers’
survey to help make things clearer.
Furthermore, researchers have gathered data that will benefit both
students and researchers, as well as provide us with a key to potential
recommendations.
Chapter V
Summary of Findings, Conclusion and Recommendation
This chapter presents the summary of the findings, the conclusions
arrived based on the findings and the recommendation offered.
Summary of Findings
The summary of data collected from Baco Catholic School, Inc. Grade
11 St. Patrick students will be addressed in this chapter.
28
This research study found that time management strategies can
improve respondents’ academic performance. Students who adopt effective
time management tactics perform better academically, with higher
productivity and lower stress levels. Time management is significant for
academic performance as well as stress reduction for students. It also
emphasizes that some students have difficulty managing their time, which
leads to cramming and incomplete tasks. The students recognize that
distractions and their desire for enjoyable activities might have an
impact on their time management. To better manage their time, most of
them employ tactics such as setting limits, setting alarms, and
prioritizing things that are more important. Students frequently submit
assignments late, and they blame this on poor time management, a lack of
comprehension of the topic, or laziness. The responders also stress the
value of prioritizing vital duties while simultaneously taking breaks and
preventing burnout by engaging in fun activities.
Conclusion
Time management skills can help students stay organized, prioritize
assignments, and avoid procrastination, all of which can lead to better
school performance. Students who practice effective time management
strategies are the one who are more to have a more productive day. They
can reduce stress and improve their overall well-being by effectively
29
managing their time, which can have a positive impact on their academic
performance.
The efficiency of time management tactics, on the other hand,
differs depending on the particular student and the exact strategies
implemented. It is also critical to emphasize that time management is
only one of many factors that can influence academic success.
To summarize, while time management strategies can be beneficial for
enhancing academic accomplishment, their effectiveness varies by student
since not all students are capable of doing things that other students
can.
Recommendation
In this part, researchers proposed a recommendation for the
students, parents, and teachers, but before making any suggestions the
researchers considered and studied the responses of the respondents. On
top of that, the researchers’ primary goal is to raise knowledge among
Grade 11 HUMSS students about the effects of time management strategies
on their academic performance.
In connection, this the researchers would like to recommend the
following:
Students should set specific and achievable goals for their academic
work, create a schedule, use to-do lists, avoid multitasking, and
take breaks during study sessions to stay focused and avoid burnout.

This can help them prioritize their time and stay focused on what is
most important. Additionally, they should create daily to-do lists
that prioritize tasks based on importance and urgency.
Parents can encourage their children to develop good time management
habits and provide a supportive environment for studying and
homework. They can also encourage healthy habits such as getting
enough sleep and exercise, which can help them stay focused and
productive.
Teachers can encourage students to prioritize tasks based on
importance and urgency, provide guidance on effective time
management strategies, and offer support and resources to help them
manage their time effectively.
Future researchers can conduct longitudinal studies to examine the
long-term effects of time management strategies on academic
performance and success. They can use a variety of research methods,
such as surveys, interviews, and observation, to gain a more
comprehensive understanding of the relationship between time
management strategies and academic performance.
