The Year of the Intervention

2009 already! And still no more progress on the interventions starting. I have a funding issue that is yet to be resolved, although I did have a very (hopefully) productive meeting with our financial manager in the faculty today. He seemed very keen on my ideas and so I hope he will be able to win favour with the decision makers and I will be granted funding so that the interventions may begin.

Before then however, I have some very overdue commitments. I must complete my Gantt Chart and case study overview map. Once these are done and reviewed, I think smaller steps will be much easier to take.

In the mean time, teaching has started again this week. This is a 7 week commitment to the University and will take more than the alloted 3 hours. But I really do enjoy it. The subject is great, all staff I have worked with on the module have been supportive and interesting, and aside from the odd student who spoils it, they are generally a decent bunch.

I need some sleep now, but my plan is to get all of the time planning documents completed by tomorrow. That will help me to feel that I have achieved a reasonable amount this week.
