This, too, is a great strategy to ensure continuous progress. In these classes, students share the diary (=a google doc) with me, and I can give feedback on a daily basis, or whenever I have time to look at them. | |

A compromise somewhere between daily meetings/reports and only meeting once a week could be asking her to keep a note of what she worked on each day so she can talk you through what she did that week in each meeting. The first few months of my PhD I wrote down what I did in my diary each day for my own benefit because otherwise I got to the end of the week and felt like I hadn't done anything. | |
