Providing feedback to students
A large part of my working week includes providing feedback to research students (honours, PhD, postdocs) - and I really enjoy this aspect of my work. Yesterday, I think we achieved a record. Nicole McGill's PhD supervisory team live in Australia, Iceland and Fiji. Yesterday, all three of us returned revisions to Nicole within 5.5 hours of her sending a paper/chapter to us (sent 3:37pm to 8:57pm Australian time)! That's how to get PhDs submitted in a timely manner.
