Class three was all about discussing team work and collaboration as we have a team project coming up and its important everyone on the team works together and faces challenges as a team.
I was assigned to the 'Blue Team' along with Lllh2, Amelia and katiedoyle. Although my team haven't met up yet to discuss rough work for the team project I have reached out to them via email. In my opinion the reason I think my team haven't collaborated together yet is because of the lack of known identities. We are students in the same university but we are all studying in different courses using usernames and not our real names to participate in Virtual Environments. I am excited to start working on the group project with other team members to listen to their input on the topic given. Although communication is not impossible my team have yet to meet up but hopefully next week we can introduce ourselves and start working together as a team!
Using online tools/platforms to communicate with others is an easy and effective way in our 21st century. People constantly refresh their timelines or engage in conversation with others via social media. The internet is becoming grossly populated and people now have access to many tools and platforms that aid research and education nowadays. I recently watched a TED talk called "How social media can make history" a talk delivered by Clay Shirley. He explains how social platforms like Facebook or Twitter can deliver information or real news to citizens quickly. Reaching out to people globally is just a click of a button away.

Fig 1: Group teams.
An effective team member must understand the individual roles that are required in order for a team to function. I am also aware a team who work well together can produce good content whereas a team who doesn't diverge and converge will struggle to understand the dynamics of good teamwork.
