Assignment 3
One
of the many frustrations of a group project is the ongoing struggle of accommodating
every member’s schedule and finding that one time slot where everyone can meet
together. With the use of collaboration technology such as Google Drive, the
level of frustration is greatly reduced. The implementation of this technology
will allow for better communication of ideas, an easier way to send and receive
information, and will not require a physical meeting.
Have you ever had an idea outside of a group meeting and you either forgot what it was, or cannot find that little piece of paper you wrote it down on. With collaboration technology, your ideas can be shared with your group from your home computer, on your laptop, and even on your smartphone. With the advancements in this technology, group members are able to collaborate wherever they may be.

Sending
emails with endless attachments is no longer necessary. Group members are now
able to create a document, spreadsheet, or power point where they can all edit
and add their input for all group members to see. A group member first creates
the file and shares it with the group, the creator of the file then is able to
select the level of action of each member. This ranges from the ability to view,
to comment on, and even allows for each member to edit the file.
Finding
a time for all group members to meet up is always a struggle, with various
school schedules, work, and family life, this makes meeting as a group very difficult.
However, with collaboration technology, group members can video chat online and
collaborate from home, or wherever they may be. The software is even free and
is easy to use.
The implementation of this
technology will allow for better communication of ideas, an easier way to send
and receive information, and will not require a physical meeting. This
technology will save members time and ensure that they are able to be as
efficient as possible with their resources.
