Predicting Achievement in Physical Science Among the Secondary Teacher Trainees Through Time Management Strategy

Abstract

Life Without any stress would be boring and probably feel pointless. Stress can affect both our body and mind. Mind is the integral part of our life. When it gets disturbed the whole system of our body feels progressive disturbance is due to stress. Now a day’s stress plays a vital role in every part of our human life. People under large amount of stress can become tired sick and unable to think or concentrate clearly. Stress is caused by both good and bad Experiences. Time management strategies are often associated with the recommendation to set personal goals. These goals are recorded and may broken down into a project, an action plan, or a simplest task list. The purpose of the study was to assess the achievement in physical science among the secondary teacher trainees by adopting time management as a stress reducing strategy. The study followed experimental method where pre-test and post-test parallel group design was introduced. The data collected from different groups were employed by using mean, standard deviation, and ‘t’– test. The results of the study were in the favour of keeping time management as one of the stress reduction strategies and found to be effective in order to improve better in their learning and academic achievement with reference to physical science. It is therefore suggested that this strategy should be widely adopted for enhancing the academic achievement in physical science among secondary teacher trainees
