Physics teachers may teach young people what time is. All educators may need to teach why time is important and how best to use it. Time management in all of its dimensions is both a key element of academic success and a life skill that all young people can profitably use to their benefit in many different areas of their lives.

All schools insist on punctuality. Homework and assignments have deadlines. Making subject choices, some of which may be vitally important for the careers and future of young people, involves life-planning decisions that demand an appreciation of the long-term.

Time is crucial to many of our actions and choices, yet some young people find it hard to get a grip on it. Appreciating that time is a resource that can be used to their own advantage, using simple strategies, is something that can be taught creatively. One way to impress upon young people that time is something to respect is to illustrate to them the impact it may have on their peace of mind and social relationships. Young people with poor time management skills may simply not have a sense of the finite nature of time. After all they have their whole lives ahead of them and time seems plentiful.
