Research Process Calculator

Tonight we set up our RSS and learned about the Research Calculator. It was very interesting and I can hardly wait to try it out with my students. They always seem to be a day late and a dollar short. Now with another "entity" imposing objective deadlines for them (rather than my seemingly subjective ones designed to ruin their social life) maybe I'll see more work from them and maybe they'll be able to visualize and continue along a sensible timeline rather than a last minute scramble to do the work. We can always hope can't we?
