My advice is solely based on principles of presenting the objectives, experiments, results, and conclusion in a fashion that as such no one will finish reading them or, if they do, readers will have little chance of understanding or remembering them.

Better solutions exist, and they aren’t rocket science.3 What we hope to do in this article is help executives, and their organizations, by reminding them of three simple things. First, multitasking is a terrible coping mechanism.

Second, addressing information overload requires enormous self-discipline.

Third, since senior executives’ behavior sets the tone for the organization, they have a duty to set a better example.

Brevity is appreciated. Since reading other's comments or articles can be very time consuming, try to be straight to the point, although respect that this is an academic class. Too little is just as troublesome as too much!

  Brevity is a good idea, but not at the expense of clarity.

be sure to post substantive ideas and avoid the "I agree" posts which just clutter up a discussion board.
- J.Randolph Radney on 25 Jan 11
  
  This is not to say you can't agree with someone, but when you post, make it worth everyone's while to read a comment, extension, or application of ideas, rather than merely an agreement.
