Background of the Study
Some of the difficulties of the students in online classes are balancing their time
between academic activities and their daily life. This affected the time
management of the students who isn’t used to doing academic activities and doing
household chores (for example) at the same time. According to the results of this
study, participants highlighted the flexibility of online education in pursuing their
academic endeavors concurrently with other responsibilities as the main advantage.
However, students were challenged in managing their time due to overlapping
dates for submitting the tasks completed for online courses. (Akmetova, 2018)
