Lesson 11 assignment by https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m COM310 en-us 2018-07-07 16:15:16 UTC 2018-07-07 20:53:47 UTC hello@padlet.com About me karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269621930 My name is Karly, and I am helping to find the best virtual means of communication for the Wakingup inc. company. Finding a virtual way to communicate will save time that would be wasted in face to face meetings on things that don't need to be discussed in length. ]]> 2018-07-07 16:16:26 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269621930 Step 1: Problem karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622176 Spending time in meetings is sometimes necessary. Important matters should be discussed in the best possible way which is face-to-face, however that can become tedious and time wasting when meetings are spent discussing trivial questions that could be answered virtually. That is why Wakingup inc. is looking for a way to communicate via their own offices or even from home. ]]> 2018-07-07 16:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622176 Step 2: Analyze the Problem karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622320 What we are looking for in a virtual communication experience is convenience, accessibility, and clarity. We need something that can be readily viewed and used, that also is able to communicate one's point clearly. ]]> 2018-07-07 16:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622320 Step 3: Generate Solutions to the Problem karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622534 There are several different virtual communication tools that could be used in order to meet some of these criteria, but the trick is to find one that meets them all. Skype seems like an obvious solution, I think Facebook.com could be a good solution.]]> 2018-07-07 16:36:01 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622534 Step 4: Evaluate the Solutions karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622730 The Pros of Skype are that you are able to see the other's face in real time and communicate back and forth quickly, but it might be difficult because you have to set up specific times to "meet" still and video conferencing requires a strong internet connection to allow it go smoothly. Concerning facebook.com, some cons would be that the responses could be delayed depending on when the other person sees them. Some pros are that it provides a multitude of way to communicate and it can be accessed from a computer and a phone. That provides accessibility and clarity. ]]> 2018-07-07 16:43:04 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622730 Step 5: Test and Implement the Solution karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622823 See the flowchart below!]]> 2018-07-07 16:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622823 Claire has finished a project and she needs it approved by her boss, Mindy. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622887 2018-07-07 16:48:32 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622887 Claire posts a picture of it onto the Wakingup inc. group on facebook and tags Mindy in it asking if this is what she was looking for. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622904 2018-07-07 16:49:10 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622904 Jack sees it and realizes that it would be perfect for something that he's working on too and leaves a comment on the picture asking is Claire could do the same type of project for him. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622921 2018-07-07 16:50:00 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622921 Mindy, Claire's boss sees it as well and messages Claire separately to tell her what she needs to alter and what looks good. They can live chat so that the feedback and responses are immediate. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622945 2018-07-07 16:51:10 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269622945 Mindy and Claire are both helped without having to spend more time in a face-to-face meeting. Jack is also benefitted by this means of communicating. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629294 2018-07-07 20:49:55 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629294 Jack needs feedback on a new idea he has for something. He posts on their page about it and asks for people's ideas. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629326 2018-07-07 20:51:15 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629326 Everyone is able to post their ideas and read the other ideas. Some people "like" some of the comments which helps Jack determine which ideas are good. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629354 2018-07-07 20:52:17 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629354 Later, when Jack is still working on the project, he is able to go back and read through the comments for more inspiration, because they are permanently there and recorded. karlydantuma https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629398 2018-07-07 20:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/karlydantuma/17iffm16el2m/wish/269629398
