Lievense Work Blog Week #5

This week has been a learning experience on how to work in groups online. It has been difficult to stay in touch with everyone on a consistent basis. This is mainly due to conflicting schedules and group members communicating from different time zones. I started the week by writing an email to introduce myself and throw out a few ideas on splitting up the work load. As the week has progressed we have gotten better at communicating through email and have made good use of the wiki page. The only problem I have seen is, we have not set up any exact times for group meetings. Instant messenger seems like it will be difficult because of the difference in time. I am sure we will resolve this issue during the upcoming weekend.

Rachel took the initiative on starting the Gnatt Chart, which was very helpful because I am not good with the excel program. I volunteered to write the weekly Group Activity reports shown by date on our Gnatt Chart. I felt this was one way I could help break up the work load. I have also written an email to my group members explaining that I will be extensively researching the CFRC this weekend. I plan to present them with the information I gathered on Monday, via email.
