Collaboration Fluency

 

Collaboration Fluency refers to team working proficiency that has reached the unconscious ability to work cooperatively with virtual and real partners in online environments to

create original digital products. The process of Collaboration Fluency is defined by the 5Es.

 

Establish

This includes establishing: the group; roles and responsibilities; the norms; the scope of the project; information needs; leadership; and committing it all to a group contract.

 

Envision

At this stage the group visualizes, defines, and examines the purpose, issue, challenge, preferred solution, or goal. They also develop an agreement on the outcome and the criteria for evaluating it.

 

Engineering

Engineering a workable plan means breaking out all the necessary steps to get us from where we are to where we want to be. Again, the team works together to work backwards from the end to develop the plan.

 

Execute

Here the plan is put into action with a focus on the development of a tangible, viable solution or product that best utilizes the individual strengths of the various members of the collective.

 

Examine

Examine involves looking back at the process and determining if the challenge was met and the goal achieved, looking at areas of improvement, recognizing contributions, and giving constructive feedback.
