Sleep plays a crucial role in academic success, yet it’s often overlooked by college students juggling classes, assignments, and social activities https://www.collegenews.com/article/importance-of-sleep-in-academic-performance/ . Quality sleep enhances memory consolidation, concentration, and problem-solving skills, all of which are essential for learning and performing well in exams. Lack of sleep, on the other hand, can lead to decreased focus, increased stress, and poor decision-making. Prioritizing regular sleep schedules can significantly boost cognitive functions, improve mood, and enhance overall academic performance. College isn’t just about hard work—it’s about working smart, and good sleep is a key part of that strategy!
I am just finishing my PhD and currently working on my dissertation. I have published two academic articles related to communication so I feel qualified to answer your question.
When talking about academic writing resources, the question is a little vague. If you are looking for a platform on which to write academic papers, of course Microsoft Word works well and integrates bibliographies and sources depending upon the formatting. Word, of course, costs money but there is an open source word processor at Open Office (https://www.openoffice.org/) which is free.
For keeping a basic bibliography, I would recommend bibme.org. This website allows you to easily enter citations and sources and copy them into your document. It also allows you to keep a running bibliography for different papers you may be working on and it saves them for you online (if you set up an account.)
If you are wanting to go a little more in depth, I would highly recommend Zotero. It is a free product which allows you to store sources in multiple folders. Zotero has a Chrome extension which allows you to bring your sources in directly from web pages (even in Google Scholar) and the Word plugin allows you to put the citations right into your document. I use this all the time and it has saved me countless hours. (www.zotero.org)
As for research, Google Scholar can provide you with the sources you need, however I recommend using your university's online library resources. Some university's subscribe to a lot of online journals and if yours does, then this is the best way to go and gives you more of the current research on your topic.
Finally, one platform that I'm looking into that you may want to check out is Scrivener. It is a word processing program that allows you to really organize big projects by using digital cards to keep your outline solid and consistent. The program is great for getting your thoughts right and your argument organized and it has the ability to do sourcing but it doesn't work well with Zotero. You can get a 30 day free trial (www.literatureandlatte.com/scrivener.php) and check it out to see if it will work for you. All the resources (with the exception of Word) are free.
I hope this answers the question.

UDEMY: How to detect which niche is still profitable?
I've had great experience as a user of Udemy and write my own courses but offer those privately for my clients. It's always better to build a course that answers a specific need. Think about the avatar for your business. You can't meet everyone's needs. Build a course with no more than 8 segments or modules with 4 - 8 learning segments within each module. You will allow the user to achieve rapid and measurable results by completing each section and ending each module with an assessment (quiz) that further validates learning the skill. Udemy is easy to use so you will have a broad audience looking for specific needs.JE

What is the best way to advertise an online educational service?
I would invest in Instagram advertising. Your target market uses Instagram heavily, so this will be an effective use of advertising dollars. Any kind of social media advertising will get you exposure with these age groups. You might set up a twitter account if you haven't already. You can promote your tweets and get your site out there. Maybe offer some kind of promotion for retweets, or special service or discounts through tweets that only your followers get or are eligible for. If you want an example- @HiddenCash on twitter. Hidden cash gains followers by tweeting out clues to where the cash is hidden in various locations. Best of luck to you!MW

Is it foolish for an undergraduate aspiring to get into entrepreneurship to go for graduate school just to have a good network?
Yes, it's foolish. People can disagree about how much value there is in a MBA, but that's not the point. You've identified two targets - being an entrepreneur and building out your network. Go straight for the jugular, not some round about way through school. Want to build your network? Take half the money you would've spent on grad school and support yourself while you explore early business opportunities and network like mad. It's quite simple. Want to build your network? Spend your time, money and energy networking in the right places. Going to school for networking only is like going grocery shopping every day hoping you'll meet your future spouse in the aisles. Taking it to the extreme... take that money and throw massive parties, sponsor relevant meetups, make a $5k investment in a startup, etc. [Source: I dropped out of school with only a few courses left to found my startup that became a VC backed Silicon Valley company.]JR
