How does the Study Planner work?

The Study Planner allows you to create your own personal study plan. You can add courses or individual lessons and specify the timeframe for completing the content. Based on how many days per week you want to study, the planner calculates your daily time investment and reminds you of your deadlines. Please scroll down to learn how to interpret the Study Planner chart.

This is how you can add content to your Study Planner

1. Go to the course that you want to add to your study plan.

2. Click on "Add to Planner" on the left side of your screen .

3. Now you can select a due date, for example, the day before your exam .

4. If you select a date and tell us how many days a week you want to invest studying, we will be able to tell you how many hours per day you will have to work on it. Click on "Save".

   

5. The course will now be visible in your Study Planner. You will see your progress and the due date.

6. Furthermore, you will also see the courses on your Home Screen, and it will let you know if you are on track studying or not.

   

When you add more than one course to your "Study Planner", you will see two different lines on the chart

• Blue line -the "due date by due date" line shows the workload  when you study one course after the other, ordered by nearest due date. The system calculates, for each period, how many minutes per day you must study to finish the next course on time. In other words, it shows the amount of time you need to invest to achieve only the next upcoming task (deadline December 4).
  • In the example above: You will need to invest 8 min a day until December 4 to achieve that task until that day.
  • After that day, the line shows the work required to achieve the second task. It starts on December 5 and ends on the deadline of December 8, requiring 14 min a day of work.
• Green line - the "balanced" line shows the workload when you study several courses in parallel. The planner spreads your total workload across upcoming courses so your daily time stays as even as possible.
  • In the example, you will need to invest 11 min a day in order to complete both the task with deadline on December 4 and the one with deadline on December 8 by working on them every day.
