Attractive smart plan
The educational consultant, Bushra Arabiyat, comments by saying: The process of organizing time is not limited to the blessed month of Ramadan, but it is a very important process in all cases and in all fields.

"We all have to contribute to directing students to the importance of using time and not wasting it in watching series or consuming their absorptive capacity on electronic devices and mobiles as much as possible," she continued.

Ramadan is an opportunity for positive behavioral change
