Summary:For the students, poor time-use habits can easily lead to academic failure. The online learning environment is full of learning resources, and students are not able to get monitor and guide of the teachers face-to-face. Therefore, students are expected to have better time management skills. In this study, 67 middle school students were taken as examples to study their online assignments in LMS in three semesters, and four indicators of time-use habit were constructed: submission, procrastination, speed and regularity. These indicators were used to analyze their prediction effect to students' learning performance. The results show that there is a significant negative correlation between procrastination and learning performance, and the predictive power of procrastination is the best; there is a significant positive correlation between assignments submission times and learning performance and speed is also. While regularity does not show significant correlation with learning performance.
