How do people do it? | A PhD's Life
https://joshphd.wordpress.com/2012/02/01/how-do-people-do-it
A PhD's Life. My life as an Assistant Professor…. How do people do it? I suck at it! I truly envy people who have the ability to multitask. I have tried and tried to no avail. It seems that the harder I try to multitask, they more I focus on one task. I desperately need to learn to multitask because it really stinks only being able to focus on one task at a time. 8221; “Is that enough information? 8221; “Can I draw that figure better myself? 8221; The questions go on and on in my mind. Dr Dad, PhD. In th...

Online Exams | A PhD's Life
https://joshphd.wordpress.com/2012/03/14/online-exams
A PhD's Life. My life as an Assistant Professor…. I know that when I coordinate my course (next Spring) I will be using scantrons for all of my exams! I can’t handle another exam like this morning. After that experience, I can really use a break. Too bad I’m 12-month faculty…no Spring Break for me. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I am going to a week-long conference the last week of this month! Laquo; The Idea Book. Date : March 14, 2012. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. 28 and a PhD.

Original Ideas | A PhD's Life
https://joshphd.wordpress.com/2012/02/07/original-ideas
A PhD's Life. My life as an Assistant Professor…. I know that many of you are probably thinking, “What! My boss and I agreed that since I had no desire to be a big-time PI at an RO1 institution that doing a postdoc wasn’t necessary for me. He also agreed that if I didn’t find a job during this cycle that he would keep me on a a postdoc until I was able to move on to something else. This sounded like a great plan to me! How did you discover your first real idea? Laquo; How do people do it? Dr Dad, PhD.

The Idea Book | A PhD's Life
https://joshphd.wordpress.com/2012/02/23/the-idea-book
A PhD's Life. My life as an Assistant Professor…. During my last year in graduate school, I started noticing that my boss was carrying a notebook with him whenever he went to meetings, talks, poster sessions, journal clubs, etc. I walked into his office one day and he was browsing an article and writing stuff in his notebook. I asked him about it and he told me it was his “idea notebook.” I always (ok not. Now, I am beginning to see my boss’ wisdom. So, do any of you keep and idea book? Uh oh…now y...

When I started working at my current job (1 1/2 years ago! I would really like to submit an article at some point in time this year. I am currently worki...

The Unmotivated Professor | A PhD's Life
https://joshphd.wordpress.com/2012/01/11/the-unmotivated-professor
A PhD's Life. My life as an Assistant Professor…. I think I should change the name of this blog to the title of this post. I cannot seem to find ANY motivation this semester. I sit here at my computer with PowerPoint open, surrounded by textbooks, but I can’t seem to make myself transfer the information from the written page to digital screen. That’s not the only area in which I cannot seem to find any motivation. READING! Is anyone else finding it hard to get motivated for this semester? I feel for you!
