Unit of Learning 9 (Purushottam Panta)
(Task N 1) Solution:
Features on Google Calendar, My office on Facebook, ZOHO Project, Yugma:
Google Calendar:
We can create our own calendar in a google calendar tool and can include our daily, monthly or weekly routine on it. We can set an automatic alert in every time assigned work. The calendar has a feature to share certain or full calendar with other people. We can view other’s shared calendar also. Now as a project management, we can manage time to work in group comparing the calendars of all the members at a time. Now its really a great idea for time management in a group. Compare the schedule of the members in the calendar and then assign the work accordingly.
My office on Facebook:
My office application on facebook is mainly to create, manage the project(s) and make a smooth collaboration with project members. We can create project from the “Create Project” option shown at the right top corner of the page. Similarly we can join or leave any particular project.
We can search and browse a number of projects created by others from different locations. Every activity would display in “My office dashboard” page.
We have a number of different tools to collaborate in a particular project once we join on it.
ZOHO Project:
ZOHO Project is also a project management tool with the help of on. We have a main dash board to get information of every task we did in the project. We can list a number of tasks and milestones to do in order to complete the project. In the calendar section, the tasks and milestones, meeting and conference to be attend are listed.
In the same way we can upload a new document or spreadsheet in a particular project.
A very common collaboration tool “Forum” has made ZOHO Project tool an interactive.
In addition ZOHO Project contains a timesheet and a reports tool which shows the contribution of the member in the project.
Yugma:
Desktop Sharing & Collaboration:
Share your computer screen in real-time so that everyone sees what you see - regardless of the application, software or operating system you are using. With this powerful Yugma feature, you can accomplish any task you can in a traditional meeting.
Skype Integration:
The Yugma Skype edition is a skype extra that builds upon skype’s offering by adding real time collaboration and desktop sharing functionality.
When you are meeting with larger groups, our teleconferencing service is a convenient way to facilitate voice communication.
The powerful whiteboard feature that allows you to instantly and interactively brainstorm during a Yugma session. Yugma also has annotation tools allow you to draw lines, shapes, and freehand in order to highlight what you are presenting to others. You can save your whiteboard diagrams and annotations in standard JPEG format for later use.
The 100 MB of web storage space to post files so that you can easily share project or team documents that can be downloaded by clients or colleagues at any time is provided by yugma.
Session Recording, Playback, and Webcast:
Premium Session Hosts and Attendees can record Yugma sessions using the Record and Playback feature. Save the file directly to your computer for later playback in Yugma’s cross-platform viewer or upload to the Yugma website. We can upload up to 200MB of recorded sessions to the Yugma website. We can use the Recording Manager tool to get the URLs for your recordings, share your recording via email with others, or delete recordings when no longer needed.
Yes, I have feel that it is very useful for group collaboration in a project management.
