Problem

The Extended Essay is long enough that a normal to-do title like 'work on EE' stops meaning anything.

Tethr outcome

Tethr helps split the essay into staged work while keeping the brief and project instructions attached.

Useful for
  • Research question refinement
  • Source collection
  • Outline and argument map
  • Drafting and citation pass
What to capture
  • Use project instructions for supervisor preferences.
  • Add separate tasks for citation cleanup and reflection writing.
  • Use Calendar to avoid bunching every essay task near the deadline.
