Description

First, we want to explore the various technologies used by virtual groups (or F2F groups that also work digitally). Do a quick internet search to aid your own experience and list digital tools used to support group processes. Explain how they assist group members’ communication. Then look for best practices by virtual groups/teams. Next, compare what you have discovered for small groups to the best practices you have been learning for in-person group communication. How are they similar? How do they differ?

Second, we want to focus on communication competence. Based on your learning from this course, an internet search, and your own experiences, list key elements of small group communication competence. Create separate lists for F2F small group interaction and digital small group communication (think in terms of brief lists of 4-8 items for each). Then compare the lists and describe their similarity and differences.
