REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

In this chapter, researchers will introduce the collected

information about the students and their studying habits in relation to

time management. This literature analysis includes articles, journals

and thesis that explain how to be an effective student when it comes

to managing time and how to come up with better studying habits.

Each section is orderly under related literature, foreign and local, and

related studies

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

The key to becoming an effective student is learning how to

study smarter, not harder. This becomes more and more true as you

advance in your education. An hour or two of studying a day is usually

sufficient to make it through high school with satisfactory grades, but

when college arrives, there aren't enough hours in the day to get all

your studying in if you don't know how to study smarter. While some

students are able to breeze through school with minimal effort, this is

the exception. The vast majority of successful students achieve their

success by developing and applying effective study habits. So if you

want to become a successful student, don't get discouraged, don't give

up, just work to develop each of the study habits below and you'll see

your grades go up, your knowledge increase, and your ability to learn

and assimilate information improve. (Loveless, 2019)

According to SNAM Razali (2016), time management is very

important and it may actually affect individual's overall performance

and achievements. Students nowadays always commented that they

do not have enough time to complete all the tasks assigned to them.

In addition, a university environment's flexibility and freedom can

derail students who have not mastered time management skills.

Meanwhile, all the time management behaviors are significantly

positively related to academic achievement of students although the

relationship is weak. Time planning is the most significant correlated

predictor.

REVIEW OF RELATED STUDIES

According to Sirohi (2005), there are many factors responsible

for academic failure of students like motivation, study habits, attitude

towards the teacher, attitude towards the subjects, school and home

background, concentration, mental conflicts, level of aspiration, self-

confidence, examination, fear, etc. He found in his study of

achievement in relation to study habits that the most significant factor

contributing to low achievement is poor study habits which have been

indicated by most of his respondents in the study. Sirohi concluded

that 98.7% of underachievers tend to possess unfavorable attitude

towards the teacher and have poor study habits. As for Smith and

tittle field (2006), poor study habits not only retard school progress

but develop frustration, destroy initiative and confidence, the feeling of

worthlessness towards himself, whereas effective methods ensure

success, happiness and sense of accomplishment. Moreover, students

with poor study habits do not perform well academically, have low

self-concept and consequently, see little benefit to academically

perform at their true ability. it is believed that improvement in basic

academic skills can increase the opportunity for achievement and

quality school experiences (Natalie, 2005) and with this success, raise

positive self-concept and attitudes towards school. (Kallman, 2006)

According to Rosete (2010), academic performance had high

significant relationship with study habits among students it is very

necessary for their cognitive development further implies that study

habits are potential factors that influence the academic performance of

students hongnee (2005), found that study habits had highly

significant relationship with students grade Lalitha (2007) describes

that studying is essentially hard work and concludes that students who

are not prepared to make appropriate effort are wasting their time.

Time management is a skill few people master, but it is one that most

people need.

Moreover, Seebach (2006) suggests a study break (not

relaxation break) after every 5 to 20 minutes in which to recall what

has been studied. Sometime spent on rest and relaxation may actually

save time in the long-run.

SYNTHESIS OF RELATED LITERATURE AND RELATED STUDIES

The quality of students’ studying habits can actually affect their

performance academically. In addition, preparing good time

management will then help the students to accurately and strategically

perform in school. To do this, students must learn proper time

management as well as the studying habits they should avoid.
