To log your hours means to write them down in a log, usually at work, probably on such form:
"Logging hours" in the context of your sentence would colloquially or metaphorically mean the hours spent in class and on doing schoolwork.
15
Possibly could be improved by clarifying that the "logging" in the quoted text is used in a metaphorical sense: no one is actually recording the time spent on these activities in a log.

Logged here means spent, or occupied, even when the activity is not literally recorded in a journal or log.
In computer science, the verb phrases log in and log on mean enroll, or provide credential.

log is a noun and according to Merriam-Webster is defined as:
a record of performance, events, or day-to-day activities
So for example, A teacher asks a student to record the time spent on different activities in a logbook.
log can however also be a verb (the act of recording something either present or past tense) as follows:
The student is busy logging their time. (present tense)
The student logged his time yesterday. (past tense)
