I went to a regular college. It was a great thing because college should teach you how to be curious. Most people think that college is the end of education, but it isn't. The ceremony is called commencement&that means you are fit to commence learning because youhavelearned howtolearn.-Vincent Price

Just posted a revised version of my ever-evolving guide to academic reading/writing/publishing (osf.io/p37zj) including tweaks made after assigning it for week 1 of an undergraduate course. Was delighted to get great feedback ("should be taught to every undergraduate student" etc.; see screenshot).
Stylised figure showing my proposed reading/writing order to maximise efficiency given diminishing marginal returns as you read academic research in greater detail. I truly wish I read this at the beginning of university. It could have saved so much time! They should create a mandatory course and explain how it’s possible to read with efficiency. Although a bit ironic, I ended up reading the whole article, because of how interesting everything is written. I believe what is covered in the article should be taught to every undergraduate student as mandatory content. Granting a degree without this knowledge is not ideal. I have always complained how reading assignments are often way too long and how students end up not doing them. However, I had never thought about how we don’t have to read everything from start to finish, and that professors may not even expect us to do so. I had always had a problem of reading slower than others, and being unable to understand when in a rush. This article however, changed the way I think about academic reading.
