To communicate with my Franklin Virtue project partners I would most likely use email, facebook, or twitter. But, based on the skype we did with the Farmington students, I don't think twitter is very popular there. So I would have to stick with facebook or email. I wouldn't really want to give my phone number out to someone I never met before because that could turn out badly. Not to be rude but what if the people are creepy and text me all the time? I mean nobody wants that. So email and facebook is good because once the project is done I won't have to talk to them anymore. Unless they were like totally awesome then I would definitely keep in chat with them. I think this skill is going to be very important for the future. When you have a job your boss or managers may not be in the same building as you all the time so you have to think or ways to communicate with people. You also need to know ways of how to get a hold of costumers or people who need your services, based on what I want to do when I grow up. You have to be able to make it easy for other people to get a hold of you or else they could just find someone else and you could lose money. I think it is also very important for me when I get into college. I will need ways to communicate with my professors or even with school councilors to help me out when I get there. I could also be doing a project like this when I am in college with people studying the same thing as me and now I will already have experience for that. Even if I am doing a project with someone that goes to my same college this would come in handy. College campuses can be so big and there are a lot of people so it is important to get a hold of the right person.
