1. Contact Caitlin to Set Up Accountability Support
"The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry" - Robert Burns (1785)
With so many competing interests in your life, it can be hard to stay on schedule. By accomplishing smaller tasks more frequently, you may find your honors thesis or research project is achieved in a more manageable fashion.
Contact me if you'd like an accountability coach for your research project:
Caitlin McClurg csmcclur@ucalgary.ca (403) 220-5319
Based on your indiviudal timeline and information that you provide me, I will reach out just enough to give you reminders of your next steps and facilitate contact with other library staff members or services that can assist you.
Need to chat? We can grab a coffee and discuss your experience with the research process.
