Final Thoughts
- Talk to "real" people
-
A guiding thought that has worked for me is:
Always have a plan, but be flexible since "stuff happens"
that you cannot always control.
Unfortunately, there is a fine line between deciding
that "life has changed and it's time to set a new course"
and leading a life that is too scattered to be productive.
- Watch out for "info overload"
- Information technologists are still working on the human interface
to information, as well as the human interface to the computer. At the
moment, the overwhelming amount of available information available,
with little or no facility for peer-reviewed critical evaluation, puts a
tremendous burden on the seeker of information. This may be a student,
or faculty member, or staff member.
