description Those who make use of time management skills find them to be a useful tool for the purpose of overcoming procrastination tendencies and fostering better task management. These two matters — procrastination and task management — are two issues of considerable relevance in the lives of many university students. Poor time management skills can result in an unbalanced relationship with one’s academic responsibilities, resulting in an increase in stress levels. Uneven distribution of tasks throughout the week, procrastination, task overload and the absence of strategies for eliminating distractions are some of the possible means through which a student can undermine their own well-being as it relates to academic life. These bad practices may be remedied by adopting time management strategies. With the purpose of fostering such strategies, two online workshops were developed. A total of 17 students participated in the intervention, of whom, 12 showed improvements in their time management skills, with two displaying particularly remarkable positive changes. From these results, it was concluded that these interventions can be of great value, and that, despite the interventions being brief, it is possible to obtain results that lead to the improvement of participants’ time management skills.

Estos, a su vez, son dos problemas que están presentes en la vida de muchos estudiantes de educación superior. La mala gestión del tiempo puede resultar en una relación desequilibrada con las responsabilidades académicas, lo que puede conducir a un aumento del estrés. La falta de planificación de las actividades, la toma de un número de tareas excesivo para sí y la ausencia de estrategias para la eliminación de distracciones pueden minar el bienestar en la vida académica. Estas prácticas pueden remediarse adoptando estrategias de gestión del tiempo. Con el fin de divulgar y fomentar tales estrategias, se elaboraron talleres online. Participaron en los talleres un total de 17 estudiantes, de los cuales 12 presentaron mejoras en su relación con la gestión del tiempo, dos de estos presentaron cambios positivos particularmente notables. Se concluye a partir de estos resultados que tales intervenciones pueden ser de gran valor y que incluso con intervenciones breves es posible obtener resultados que confirmen la mejora en las habilidades de gestión del tiempo de los participantes.As habilidades de gestão do tempo fornecem àquele que se utiliza delas uma boa ferramenta na superação da procrastinação e na gestão de tarefas. Estes, por sua vez, são dois problemas que estão presentes na vida de muitos estudantes do Ensino Superior. Má gestão do tempo pode resultar em uma relação desequilibrada com as responsabilidades acadêmicas, o que pode levar a um aumento do estresse. A falta de planejamento das atividades, a tomada de um número de tarefas excessivo para si e a ausência de estratégias para eliminação de distratores podem minar o bem-estar na vida acadêmica. Tais práticas podem ser remediadas pela adoção de estratégias de gestão do tempo. Com o fim de divulgar e fomentar tais estratégias, foram elaboradas oficinas em formato online. Participaram das oficinas um total de 17 estudantes, dos quais, 12 apresentaram melhoras na sua relação com a gestão do tempo e, destes, dois apresentaram mudanças positivas particularmente notáveis. Conclui-se a partir destes resultados que tais intervenções podem ser de grande valia, e que mesmo com intervenções breves é possível obter resultados que confirmem a melhora nas habilidades de gestão do tempo dos participantes.Universidad Católica del Uruguay2023-10-092025-12-22T16:34:46Z2025-12-22T16:34:46Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/284510.22235/cp.v17i2.2845https://hdl.handle.net/10895/5601Ciencias Psicológicas; 2023, Volumen 17(2); e-2845Ciencias Psicológicas; 2023, Volumen 17(2); e-2845Ciencias Psicológicas; 2023, Volumen 17(2); e-28451688-422110.22235/cp.v17i2reponame:LIBERIinstname:Universidad Católica del Uruguayinstacron:Universidad Católica del Uruguayporengspahttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/2845/3086https://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/2845/3087https://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/2845/3447Derechos de autor 2023 Universidad Católica del Uruguayhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:liberi.ucu.edu.uy:10895/56012026-06-16T06:51:38Z
