This week we have been shown and given everything that we needed in order to prepare and execute the audio project. It is now completely down to us to be able to work together as a group, share ideas in a diplomatic approach and come up with a plan to give us a sense of direction. Having one team member present at the time of the workshop, I tried to take this opportunity to bond with him and make him more comfortable talking with me. He was a bit shy and distant but I eventually got him to open up and explore some ideas. I later contacted my other group member to get her say on the project and establishing a messaging group on Face Book for our main source of communication.
In this chat group we would set up date and times to meet and reference any ideas that came to mind. This instant form of messaging is a very useful tool because we can easily share our thoughts at anytime and anywhere. A google doc will also be created for our annotated bibliography so that we can all see what references we are using to get a sense of where your references fit in with the others.

As I would hate to admit, most of the times that I have been in group assignment, has resulted in group members falling into these categories. This is something I am trying to avoid, but also guilty of in the pass. Sharing the workload and helping each other out will be heavily emphasised in the weeks to come prior to the due date.
