The introduction to this lectorial was focused on how to approach the use of the RMIT online library resource. I had already toyed with the navigation of this service so it wasn’t of much use to me but it was good to get some validation on the fact that I’ve been using it correctly.

Rachel then took over and delved into the ways to approach positive collaboration, touching on the all-too familiar experiences of bad collaboration (eg: doing all the work and having to deal with other people getting credit for it) to drive the point home. She listed the characteristics of positive collaborations, which I reckon I’ll do too because who doesn’t love a nice clear list:
– Clear Objectives
– Good Communication
– Consistency
– Respect
– Support
– Responsibility
– Equitable (Sharing Workload)

With these in mind for the eventual group project brief #4, hopefully I’ll be able to collaborate really effectively with some likeminded people and produce something that we’re all proud of.
