Isabeau Iqbal, an educational developer at UBC’s centre for teaching, learning and technology, wrote an op-ed for University Affairs on the varied methods for successful writing in response to a University of Auckland study on academic researchers.
“Some wrote at night, others in the afternoon or morning; certain academics wrote only on campus, while others wrote in cafés, or at home, or in retreat-like settings. There are prolific writers who ‘binge write,’ while others write more regularly. The point is that successful academics find ways to write that suit their particular preferences,” Iqbal wrote.
