The first session on Collaboration Technologies

All first year PGDM and IB students have now attended my first lecture. In my online form, I had asked you about 17 different technologies and how much do you know. Generally most students have indicated that they already know a lot about these technologies. We will therefore not get into teaching some of the very basic things in these technologies. Rather, we will try to concentrate on providing you the context, discuss advanced features and help you spend more time on a live project.
Following is the summary of what did you tell us about your knowledge of these technologies at the start of the course.

To help us concentrate on more advanced features, another questionnaire is sent to you asking you about your familioarity with specific GMail advanced features. On Wednesday/Thursday we will see live demo of using these features and provide you guidelines on how should you set up your personal collaboration environment to become an effective team member.

Today you have also seen live demonstration of how LinkedIn profiles are created and how can these be of great use in professional career development.

Assignment # 1
Your first assignment of this week is to create your personal LinkedIn profile. Once you have created your profile, join the "BIMTECH ERPLab" LinkedIn Group.










See you tomorrow,
