Sosialisasi Peningkatan Kesadaran Manajemen Waktu bagi Pelajar di Era Digital

Socialization on Improving Time Management Awareness for Students in the Digital Era

Abstract

Digital technology has expanded students’ access to information, but it has also intensified distractions that weaken study routines and increase procrastination. This community service program aimed to strengthen time-management awareness among students at SMAN 1 Carenang through a socialization activity that combined lecture delivery, guided discussion, and an interactive Kahoot-based evaluation. The activity was conducted on Wednesday, 20 May 2026, with 34 students participating and 32 students actively completing the final quiz. The results showed an average score of 85%, with the highest score in activity prioritization (91%) and the lowest in procrastination-related items (66%). Most participants were categorized as very good (62%), followed by good (28%) and fair (10%). These findings indicate that the program effectively improved students’ understanding of prioritizing tasks, controlling digital distractions, and applying practical strategies such as time blocking and the Pomodoro technique. The program’s novelty lies in its simple, participatory, and gamified approach that is easy to replicate in school settings. Continuous follow-up activities are recommended so students can maintain more disciplined, focused, and productive learning habits.
