Working at Distance 2/25/2016Kwuait Branch2

Working at Distance Team: Is a group of people who have shared goals and a common purpose. Virtual Team: Members who live far apart from each other, work for different organizations, meet rarely, and collaborate electronically 2/25/20163Kwuait Branch

Working at Distance 2/25/2016Kwuait Branch4

Working at Distance Communications Media can be categorized. (Based on Olson and Olson). 2/25/2016 Kwuait Branch 5 Category Participants co-located Participants share the same physical environment because they are in the same meeting room. This support the discussion. For example, can use shared surfaces, such as whiteboards or meeting tables, and use paper prototypes as shared workspaces. Participants visible to one another Participants are visible to each other; so they can use body language and to communicate, as well as being able to communicate through speech, diagrams and pictures. Participants audible to one another Participants use speech to communicate. Like speaking and their emotional state. Communication is synchronous All participants participate in the meeting at the same time (if not the same place) since messages (including speech) are not necessarily stored once they are sent. Communication is simultaneous Both speakers can send and receive messages at the same time. In a face-to-face meeting you can speak at the same time as you can listen. Electronic mail is not simultaneous since you can only send (write) or receive (read) at any one time. Communication is sequential This does not mean that participants take strict turns in speaking! In combination with the previous dimension, communication that is simultaneous (such as speech) is easier to follow, since it is always heard in the correct sequence and you can remember the context of the previous message while listening to the current one. One reason why so-called ‘threaded’ is to enable people to follow the order in which items are contributed to the discussion. Is a permanent record kept? If a permanent record of the discussion is kept then you can review each other’s messages. It is often helpful to refer back to earlier discussion or to read message several times to understand them. Telephone conversations are ephemeral since there is no permanent record kept of the conversation or what was said – unless it is being recorded. Are revisions possible Can you revise messages before they are sent, or are they broadcast as soon as they are composed (as happens with the spoken word)? The ability to revise a message before it is sent gives people the opportunity to compose carefully what they are going to say, and hopefully avoid putting their foot in it!

Working at Distance Issues that your team will have to be aware of in communicate and collaborate effectively with each other? 1. 1.The difficulty of scheduling synchronous meetings Recognizing that progress may be slow because you are all studying part-time Allowing extra time for decision making Not dependent on working very closely with remote team members on a difficult problem 2/25/2016Kwuait Branch8
