The Effect of Time Management Skills on Information Processing, Retention and Recall

Abstract

The current research aims at investigating the effect of time management skills on information processing, retention and recall. Mainly, this research reveals the students’ perspectives following the determined purposes and questions of the topic. Hence, we hypothesized that effective time-management could have an influence on information processing, retention and recall. To test the hypothesis, the descriptive method was adopted through the administration of students’ online questionnaire by sending a digital version to the students of second-year Master at the department of English, 8 Mai 1945 University-Guelma. The obtained findings indicated the strong impact of time management skills on information processing, retention and recall. Therefore, time management should be taken seriously into account to enhance students’ mental capacities as far as information processing, retention and recall are concerned.
