Management tips for academics
John Quiggin posts some time management tips for academics, and because my time management skills are horrible, I decided to read them instead of tackling the mess that is my desk. Here's his first one:
Excellent advice. Now back to that overdue referee report. posted by Dan on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PMComments: those concepts sound like rip-offs from David Allen's "getting thngs done". It is unbelievable, and incredibly intuitive. Check out James Fallow's profile: posted by: chris brandow on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]Can't be getting much done the past few days, what with the ALCS and all. Please God, Go Sox! posted by: Steve M on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]I sit on an editorial board and I also have to review student therapist paperwork weekly. Then there's the website to update, the tests to grade, the latest research to review and...what was that about tenure? Oy. Last year I had a work study student who was a dream. This year? Not so much. So...feel free to post these tips anytime. I know I can use the suggestions and the nudges. posted by: Opus on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]Dan, do you follow this rule for blog posts? posted by: Zathras on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]Chris, I've never seen the book you refer to, but there may be a link. Kieran at CT mentioned to me something he'd read rather similar to my #1, and I responded with this and a couple more I've used for a long time, then worked them up into a blog post. posted by: John Quiggin on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]I really hate to sound ignorant and perhaps this site is way too advanced for me but could some one PLEASE explain to me or give me a site to go to that would explain to me exactly what is and when the Electrol College began. I find it very confusing and this is such an important election I would like to be well informed when the pundits are talking about it on TV and NPR. Help. posted by: Gay Nixon on 10.20.04 at 04:54 PM [permalink]Post a Comment: |
