Whimsyy's Seventh Week

Group Work Theory and Practice - https://www.newlinkstraining.com/management-and-leadership/group-work-theory-and-practice/

Muriel001 and myself organised for the group to meet up on a Facebook call a few times but they were cancelled. We finally managed yesterday (18 November) to chat with each other for 5 minutes, even with 5 minutes I felt it was better than no progression. Sandra had spoken first saying that the work she had done is on our google slides document and had to leave. I asked did each person have a look at the brief and if they had any suggestions or thoughts on it to which they said they were happy to go with what I had previously suggested. I didn’t mind this, I just felt the need for more suggestions other than mine to compare and contrast to get the best outcome for our group.

Whimsyy's First Week

Whimsyy's First Week Image captured in SL of my avatar flying. My Journey into second life began when I had to pick an avatar which best suited me. Instead of going into great detail of personalizing a character, I just chose to pick a default character as no one knew what I looked like in person apart from 4 people from my original class, I didn't feel the want or need for others to see what I really looked like. I also felt that being an avatar gave me a chance to step out of the ordinary so why look ordinary? I may change the avatar exterior look in time as it wont matter becau...

Whimsyy's Sixth Week

Whimsyy's Sixth Week For today’s class, John spoke about the importance of our blogs and to make sure that they are refined. I did a few changes so I’m hoping my blogs are up to standard. John was also saying to go from describing my experience in Second Life to now reflecting on my experience of team building which I will go though at the end. We were also asked to talk about how I might convert my personal presence online into an identity for professional networking as it is very important, therefore, to be aware of the nature of the online environment and to maintain a high level of digital literacy. Personal presence online can be as important to employers/ employees/ customers and followers, one must take into consideration when posting on social media, that it is there for all to see and that you can be judged with positivity but to expect the negativity too. Not everything is everyone’s “cup of tea” and it can have a backlash effect on one’s personal career or how ...

Whimsyy's Presentation Day with 'Group Yellow'.

Whimsyy's Presentation Day with 'Group Yellow'. 'Presentations have begun' - Location- DIT classroom in SL. ( 13th December 2018) Well today is a day I will never forget. (13th December 2018) The day of the class presentations in Second Life. We were worried that being last would lose people’s attention but hoped that since there were only a few groups it would go well. It was our turn to present and we first sent the class a location link in S.L. We all teleported to Muriel001's 'furniture refurbishing' location. Well, all I can say is it didn't go to plan. A woman that as far as we could understand, was selling items in that location, wasn't happy to say the least about our arrival and banned us all from the location. We teleported back to the class and to say I was put off is an understatement. I was nervous as it was, especially with our group being last so my nerves had built up. I felt this situation had put a bad s...
