After a lot of confusion, my group was finally able to communicate together to work on Group Project 1. We had planned to use WiZiQ as our method of communication to create our group card. Unfortunately, we had a lot of trouble getting the time right and had to resort to other methods. Along with our frequent emails, we used Google Talk to decide what other method we should use. We settled on Skype, however it costs money to have a video chat with three callers. Between hearing each other's voices and typing, Sarah, Jackie, and I were able to come up with our similarities, experiences, preferences, etc. We chose to create a Wordle as a fun way to express what we had found. We added our Wordle to our Google Presentation slide and came up with a great product!
It was really fun collaborating with Sarah and Jackie over the internet and using such great tools. We were able to add our pictures to the slide at the same time since the presentation was "shared." I look forward to our next project and hope to be able to try out WiZiQ!
