Communicating with Partners

It is going to be very difficult for us to communicate with our partners for our Franklin's virtues project. It will be easy for us to communicate with some of them, the ones that are from Plains, but it is going to be a challenge for us to communicate with the partners that are in Farmington. I think that emailing and texting and facebook would all be good ways of communicating with people from Farmington. When I did the flat classroom project last year in speech, I had a hard time communicating with the other people involved in the project. It was difficult because in the group projects that we are all used to, we are used to sitting with our partners and talking about the project. We are used to being able to discuss the problems involved with the project face to face with our partners. In the flat classroom project, it was more difficult to communicate with our partners because they were far away. The only ways for us to communicate was online. I think since I have experience with this challenge of long distance communication, that it will make it easier for me to do this project. I will be mainly communicating with my partners via email, and facebook. These will be the easiest ways to communicate with them because these are things that I will be using daily. I look at my email almost every day, and all of my partners have email, so that will be the main way of communicating with them. Another way of communicating with my partners would be facebook. This is not my first choice of communicating with them because first of all, they might not all have a facebook, also, facebook is blocked on a lot of the computers at school. Facebook would be a good way of communicating with my partners outside of school, however, because my partners are probably more likely to check their facebook after school than their email.
