Calendaring
Bringing organization to one's life is never a bad thing. There are, however, challenges to start the process. We've put together a few resources that will help.
Semester Calendar
Pulling together a semester calendar will provide you with a big picture of important events of which you will need to be aware.
Weekly Planner
Once you have your semester calendar developed, you can begin breaking down the big requirements into smaller, more manageable assignments. These can be assigned daily or weekly. The blank weekly planner will provide you a with a starting point! We've also created a sample weekly planner for you. If we can help you develop your calendar, call 334-670-3221 to request help with ‘calendaring'.
