Good+Communication+is+Key

=Good Communication is Key = The key to a project like this is good communication. It is difficult to work on a project with someone that you cannot see. One of the reasons we chose to do this project in this fashion is so that you can experience this. Think about it, in your future job you probably will work with plenty of people you will never meet. You really need to know how to work collaboratively with people that you can't see. It requires more communication than you are used to using. You have to be specific, you have to be on top of what you are doing, you have to be organized and all this takes hard work. Some of you are uncomfortable and some of you aren't because you are good communicators. If you are uncomfortable then this then you are outside of your comfort zone and that is always a good thing.

This is a great project that is something that has no one else is doing at FR. Your other teachers aren't doing this. We are integrating a variety of 21st Century Skills: collaboration, creativity, students centered, project based, leadership, communication. This is where education is going. This is the way work is going.
