Hey guys I recently just joined a new school, New Tech High which is a school that encourages its students to learn through collaboration-meaning its group orientated. As you can imagine this means when I get new groups, there is always the possibility that I don't know anyone. So I thought I would share some of my tips on how to connect with your team. #1 Introduce Yourself. This ones pretty simple, but just start out by acknowledging your teammates with a simple hello and introducing yourself to each member. #2 Share Your Contact Information, so some teachers have group contracts that require you and your team to put in your emails and numbers. But if the teacher does not require it, it's always good in general to exchange contact information with one another, so you are available to your team in case any members have questions concerning the project. #3 Listen to your team members input, make sure to always listen to what others have to say. Though you may not always agree, let your teammates share their ideas, input, and feedback.Its very important to make your teammates feel like they have a voice and a say in things. #4 Find a way to personally connect. Make sure to talk about things outside of your project, don't get too off task because class time is VALUABLE and not to ask about anything to personal. (Basically don't ask about their darkest secrets as an ice breaker.) But just something that lets y'all have some type of connection other than the project and your school work, like maybe their interests or how their weekend was. This is a very short and simple post, there is probably more tips out there, but here are the main points that I personally chose and think, that will help you the most in making a connection with your team.
