Throughout this unit my year level will be doing a lot of world collaboration with people from America, New Zealand, China and Some Australian schools. Underneath I have included some key words and my thoughts on what I think will happen throughout this experience.
Netiquette
I think that having netiquette while speaking to people on the internet is a very important thing. If we speak to people politely and respectfully then they should do the exact same thing back. The meaning of netiquette is:
Definition: The rules of etiquette but on the internet or technology.
Global Collaboration
I think the concept of Global collaboration and communicating with people overseas sounds fun but may involve a lot of hard work. I believe that because talking to people on the internet instead of face to face can be hard and people can get mixed up on what other people are saying.
Effective Communication
I think to communicate effectively you have to have a clear idea of what you want to say otherwise people could get mixed on what you are trying to say. I think even though you can't stand face to face with people on the internet you can still communicate well. I am not saying its going to be easy to work with someone on the other side of the world but think it won't be the hardest thing.
Time zones and Cultural differences
I personally are not too worried bout the different languages as the one language that isn't English, which is Chinese are learning to speak English. The thing I am more worried about is the times zones because its going to be really hard to figure out when we can talk to them and what lessons we waste trying to talk to them.
