AIAS Shut Up and Write Sessions

Introduction

Bring your writing or reading to the AIAS room 1630.319 and enjoy the good karma of your fellow colleagues working silently alone/together. Some prefer to bring headphones because they are distracted by the sound of keyboards, others enjoy the sound of typing and find it motivating. 

Aim: To create a collective forum for your own writing projects, be it papers, applications, books, other manuscripts, code etc. 


Format

We work independently on a shared schedule of 25 minutes writing/reading (in silence) followed by a 5-minute talking/moving break. This time-frame is chosen to follow time management and productivity theory ideas, e.g. the Pomodoro Technique. After a few of these rounds, we may take a longer break. That's it!
