academic success, particularly within online learningcontexts where students must often self-regulate in the absence of structured face-to-faceinteractions [2], [3], [4]. The self-directed nature of online education requires students to notonly master content knowledge but also develop efficient time management strategies. Researchshows that inadequate time management skills correlate with increased stress, diminishedacademic performance, and higher dropout rates [5]. Therefore, understanding the specific timemanagement challenges faced by online students is important for crafting suitable interventionsand support frameworks.Time management entails a range of skills, including planning, prioritization, goal-setting, andself-monitoring, alongside
