The Pen Is Mightier Than the Keyboard: Learning, Time Management & College Success- with Professor Ginny Horan
In this episode Prof.Virginia Horan and I discuss the changing landscape of education, focusing on the impact of technology, parental involvement, and mental health on students. We talk about the importance of a holistic approach to education, self-care, and time management, and the value of traditional methods combined with technology. We also highlight the need for personal growth, resilience, and self-esteem.
Professor Ginny Horan has been teaching Communication since 1991 as a member of the full-time faculty at Suffolk County Community College. After researching the decline in student success, she discovered many Gen Z students lack time management skills, so five years ago she created a paper planner that teaches time management AND offers emotional and academic support through weekly video tutorials that match printed tips in the planner itself.
Episode Takeaways
All technology is not necessarily good technology when it comes to learning
More students today in college are ambivalent and unsure
Flashcards, time management, and note-taking are still essential
Parents are also heavily managing their child’s high school life which makes learning time management more challenging
Every college has tutoring, test anxiety workshops, time management workshops, and mental health resources
The Centered Student planners have a QR code to provide emotional support and tips throughout the first year of college
Writing by hand slows students down, to think about what they are actually writing
When you are feeling overwhelmed try to HALT and assess if you are Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired
When you don’t feel in control you feel anxious, if you feel in control you’ll feel a little less anxious
Parents you have to let your kids fail
Guided meditations are a perfect way to ease instant anxiety
Maybe we could all
