[Year 12 IPM] U3O2 Virtual Teams

[Stephen Digby]

Wiki seems perfect for online collaborative solution development.
Shared development with ability to see individual contribution.
Set up the group wiki with the task sub sections and this allows all
students to see what each one is changing suggestion etc.
Pity it does not have a separate "discussion" tab ...... Yet.

Or could set up a temporary media wiki site .... I think there are some that
allow you to set up your own "proper" wiki...

Is it possible for students to use eg SharePoint or moodle develop their
understanding strategic collaboration and virtual teams.

I see this medium, for teachers, as our point of reference, moving into the
future.

Thanks

Dear All

I am reading with interest everyone's comments on U302 - collaborative
problem solving within virtual teams and am wondering if I may be
over-simplifying this outcome task 

Going by the detailed example in the study design p. 69-70 we are given the
scenario of university located on one "large campus", whereby management has
recently formed as one of their key objectives to "strengthen current
strategic collaborations and forge new alliances that will create new
knowledge ..."

The task is then: 

"design and create a prototype website for Sherwood University that will
enable various virtual teams ... to realise their goals and to enhance
decision making, knowledge sharing and collaborative problem solving"

Couldn't simply having an email link solve this problem - yes you would use
wikis, blogs, forums, webcasts, and every other "sexy"
tool
- however I can communicate virtually via email to people with the same
interest (teams)

Really, isn't that what I am doing right now - sending an email to a group
of people with a common interest and goal and sharing information and
receiving information in a collaborative environment


Just my thoughts

Cheers
