Howard Rheingold on how the five web literacies are becoming essential surviv... - 1 views

  • Net Smart offers up a set of five literacies Rheingold sees as important: attention, participation, collaboration, “crap detection,” and network smarts.
  • We often divide our attention online, but at any given moment make “micro decisions” about what we’re going to do — write emails for work, watch a YouTube video, get lost in Twitter. Rheingold says we have to connect our attention to our intention and be more aware of how what we’re actively doing relates (or often doesn’t) to what we need.

  •  
    "Vor etwa fünf Jahren galt das Online-Spiel "Second Life" als Erfolgsmodell, mit dem sich viel Geld im Netz verdienen ließ. Doch die virtuelle Welt erwies sich als zu kompliziert für viele User. "Second Life" wurde zur Plattform für innovative Firmen, die hier kein Geld verdienen, sondern sparen wollen."

Can Absence Make a Team Grow Stronger? - Harvard Business Review - 3 views

  •  
    Summary: "The scores of successful virtual teams the authors examined didn't have many of the psychological and practical obstacles that plagued their more traditional, face-to-face counterparts. Team members felt freer to contribute--especially outside their established areas of expertise. The fact that such groups could not assemble easily actually made their projects go faster, as people did not wait for meetings to make decisions, and individuals, in the comfort of their own offices, had full access to their files and the complementary knowledge of their local colleagues. Reaping those advantages, though, demanded shrewd management of a virtual team's work processes and social dynamics. Rather than depend on videoconferencing or e-mail, which could be unwieldy or exclusionary, successful virtual teams made extensive use of sophisticated online team rooms, where everyone could easily see the state of the work in progress, talk about the work in ongoing threaded discussions, and be reminded of decisions, rationales, and commitments. Differences were most effectively hashed out in teleconferences, which team leaders also used to foster group identity and solidarity."

  • Schließlich müssen die Mitarbeiter virtueller Teams ebenso einbezogen, motiviert und informiert werden wie jene im traditionellen Büro, weil sie sonst leicht im digitalen Jenseits vergessen werden.
  • Virtuelles Arbeiten ist daher häufig einsames Arbeiten. Es verlangt mehr Selbstdisziplin, mehr Zuverlässigkeit, mehr Vertrauen und Kommunikationsbereitschaft.

Scientists prove telecommuting is awesome - Online Collaboration - 0 views

  • telecommuters were performing better than their counterparts in the office. They took more calls (it was quieter and there were fewer distractions at home) and worked more hours (they lost less time to late arrivals and sick breaks) and more days (fewer sick days). This translated into greater profits for the company because more calls equaled more sales. The telecommuters were also less likely to quit their jobs, which meant less turnover for the company.

Research | Columbia News - 1 views

  • Sparrow’s research reveals that we forget things we are confident we can find on the Internet. We are more likely to remember things we think are not available online. And we are better able to remember where to find something on the Internet than we are at remembering the information itself.
