This study by Johnny Lo analyzes time spent studying among IME 301 students over five weeks, examining daily and weekly patterns, class management, and hypothesis testing. Data collection includes study time, study type, and place. The findings support the hypothesis with most work done during weekends and increased study time during exams. The study reveals specific patterns for different subjects and highlights the excessive time spent on lab reports. Conclusions indicate fair study time distribution across days, with the majority of study time focused on IME 301. Additional insights include frequent study on Wednesdays and weekends at home, along with notable variations in study intensity during exam periods.
