Workshop – Inbox zero and tech-task lists: getting things done

Sincere apologies to all that signed up for this workshop: Martin was unable to make to campus in time thanks to the train difficulties (none from his place through London) today; if you had booked a place, you will be receiving an email about rescheduling very soon.

Tuesday 28th June – 14:00 – 16:00

In this workshop, led by Martin Eve, we will explore the technologies and strategies that can be deployed to productively deal with the increasingly diverse range of activities, including administration, expected of researchers. We will begin by critically evaluating the applicability of ‘business guru’ mentalities to all aspects of academic ‘labour’ — the ‘Getting Things Done’ of the title — before moving to a practical session using the tools that can, in appropriate circumstances, help you become more productive.

Tools and techniques we will look at will include:

•  Producteev
•  Inbox Zero
•  Astrid
•  Remember the Milk
•  Time tracking
•  Disconnecting
•  Avoiding over-commitment
