“…Management strategies support the students to participate in the classroom and to gain new knowledge and skills (Schulze, 2016), and students who participated in collaborative groups acquired decision-making skills (Zhang et al, 2016). Tsai and Liu (2015) revealed that collegial school management, as well as responsibilities among teachers, influence communication and interpersonal skills (Abulibdeh, 2013). The significant positive relationship exists between academic students' skills and collegial school management, as well as employability skills (Harrris, 2013;Kraebber and Greenan, 2012;Hadromi & Soesanto, 2015).…”

“…The area of time management is the center of attention in much of existing researches which are mostly oriented on the use of time management, especially in working life (Azar, 2017;Burt et al, 2010;Singh and Jain, 2013).

Duties, tasks, different situations or decisions need to be resolved on a daily basis. However, it often happens that because of over-information from different sides, an excessive number of tasks, the fast pace of life, and so on we tend to procrastinate important tasks for later. This phenomenon can occur in almost every area, including the academic area. This contribution, therefore, addresses the occurrence of academic procrastination and the establishment and use of time management by university students. The main objective is to identify possible differences in procrastination and the right use of time management in a cross-cultural context. A research sample consisted of 292 students from the Uzhhorod National University and from the University of Prešov, on which we surveyed the rate of procrastination and rate of time management through our own questionnaire. Subsequent testing of the obtained data revealed that there are statistically significant differences in procrastination between Ukrainian and Slovak students, but differences in time management have not been confirmed.

Furthermore, multitasking is often characterized by staying up late at night [22], which often positively correlates with lower levels of academic success [23]. With so much mentioned, obviously multitasking lowers productivity.…”

Numerous researches on information and communication technology (ICT)-induced multitasking among students document a number of unfavourable consequences, such as heightened distraction and less attention, hampered learning and hindered productivity at the expense of better academic performance. This study focused on the effect of information and communication technology induced multitasking on academic performance of university students in Uganda. To this end, primary data were collected during the month of May 2016 using stratified cluster sample design. A self-reported questionnaire was used to collect data from 312 students of Makerere University who participated in the study. Through structural equation modelling (SEM), it was demonstrated that ICT-induced multitasking does not affect academic performance directly but through self-regulation, attention span, emotional control and productivity focus. Nonetheless, multitasking does not always have negative consequences. To a majority of students, multitasking provides emotional satisfaction and enjoyment, which do correlate positively with good academic performance. Indeed, multitasking can be an effective use of time when well-regulated and an efficient tool in problem solving. Multitasking may only be indicative of the changing nature of norms. Traditionally, one was expected to give and receive undivided attention when talking in a face-to-face conversation with another; yet new norms are evolving for the networked society, such as responding to text messages promptly. To buffer the negative effect of ICT-induced multitasking on academic performance, one needs a facility with a good degree of self-regulation, attention span, emotional control and productivity focus.
