How to implement GTD for university students
Lilly252 | Jan 15 2006
Hello all, This weekend I took out seven HUGE trash bags out of my office after cleaning everything hidden in every corner. I had boxes that had never been unpacked from four moves ago that are GONE! What a liberating feeling! I don't have my tickler file set up, but have my someday/maybe and my "next actions" set up. The entire office is set up like a GTD Central Command. I had been using the Hipster last semester before life took a weird turn. Anyways.... the reason for my question is this... I'm a doctoral student, and as such I have weekly assignments for classes, papers for the semester, and some independent projects that I"m working on like grant proposals, etc. I keep wondering what the best way of keeping track of everything, and I can't come up with anything concrete, so I thought I'd consult with the experts on this board. Thanks! 61 Comments

I'm using freemind to organise all of my references and do my revision. Currently studying an MBA, so a lot of my reference material is electronic files from EBSCO etc, mostly pdf from HBR and other journals. I go to EBSCO and get the file emailed to me, including the cited reference. that goes into the mind map with a link to the pdf. Then I make my notes, or cut and past (with page references) the relavent sections. The mind map then becomes my reference plan for the essay - I can print it out on A3 paper (or larger) and work from that. it has worked fantastically for open book exams - easy to process the information and easy to spew the info onto the exam page. » POSTED IN:
