If two tasks need to be done at the same time, what should be done according to self-management?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Decide the order of tasks based on importance and deadlines
When tasks compete for the same time, the student should compare their importance, deadlines, consequences, and estimated effort, then create an order or schedule. This allows urgent or high-impact work to receive attention first while the other task is assigned a realistic time. Abandoning both, choosing randomly, or always choosing the less important task is not sound prioritisation.
