Collaboration Tools Teach Business Students the Practice and Power of Global Teamwork
Overview In a project designed to teach business students about collaboration, the Eugene M. Isenberg School of Management at the University of Massachusetts - Amherst had powerful software tools at its disposal. But reliance on e-mail for communications and file sharing stalled the project when a newly installed server misrouted students' messages for several days. In response, project leaders implemented a process using Microsoft Office Groove 2007 so that students could collaborate without having to rely on e-mail. As a result of this and of the product's ease of use and deployment, powerful synchronization capabilities, and integration with Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, students are well on track to meet all project objectives and better prepare themselves to work successfully within global teams.
