PHENOMENOLOGICAL STUDY OF TIME MANAGEMENT EFFECTIVENESS IN STUDENTS OF MASTER OF MANAGEMENT STUDY PROGRAM FEB UNSRAT WHO ARE WORKING

Abstract

The aim of this research is to find out the effectiveness of time management and its application to students of the FEB UNSRAT Master of Management study program who have worked to meet their academic achievement indicators which were studied using phenomenological theory in the form of qualitative research methods. The informants in this research were 10 students of the FEB UNSRAT Master of Management study program who were already working in the class of 2022 and had academic achievements that were not optimal in the 2022 Odd Semester plus 2 lecturer informants, namely teaching lecturers and the Head of the FEB UNSRAT Master of Management Study Program. The data collection technique in this research is using in-depth interviews, documentation and observation. Meanwhile, sampling or determining research informants was carried out using purposive sampling. Then use the triangulation technique as a data analysis technique in it. The results of this research show that the time management that is understood and implemented by students of the FEB UNSRAT Master of Management study program who are already working in the class of 2022 is not appropriate or its effectiveness is not optimal. Furthermore, academic achievement was not optimal in Semester 1 (Odd) because the students who were already working did not place academic achievement as the main priority for their dual role functions. Another factor is the emergence of miscommunication between teaching lecturers and students who are already working due to inconsistencies in giving grades, assignments, attendance, and changes in schedules between each other. In other words, the bonding or relationship that exists is not good enough between the teaching lecturer and the working students.
