Answer to #1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) Shared workspaces are online virtual offices that give everyone on a team access to the same set of resources and information. You may see some of these workspaces referred to as intranets (restricted-access websites that are open to employees only) or extranets (restricted sites that are available to employees and to outside parties by invitation only). Many intranets have now evolved into social networking systems that include a variety of communication and collaboration tools, from microblogging to video clip libraries.

Answer to #2

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Teams and other work groups can also take advantage of a set of broader technologies often referred to as groupware or collaboration platforms. These technologies let people communicate, share files, review previous message threads, work on documents simultaneously, and connect using social networking tools. These systems help companies capture and share knowledge from multiple experts, bringing greater insights to bear on tough challenges.

Answer to #3

Answer: D
Explanation: D) The actual composition is the only part of developing team messages that does not usually benefit from group participation. Brainstorming the wording of short pieces of text, particularly headlines, slogans, and other high-visibility elements, can be an effective way to stimulate creative word choices. However, for longer projects, it is usually more efficient to plan, research, and outline together but assign the task of writing to one person or divide larger projects among multiple writers. If you divide the writing, try to have one person do a final revision pass to ensure a consistent style.

Answer to #4

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Project goals should be discussed and agreed on before you start. Starting without a clear idea of what the team hopes to accomplish inevitably leads to frustration and wasted time.

Answer to #5

Answer: C
Explanation: C) To collaborate effectively, everyone involved must be flexible and open to other opinions, focusing on team objectives rather than on individual priorities. Most ideas can be expressed in many ways, so avoid the my way is best attitude when working with others.

Answer to #6

Answer: D
Explanation: D) The simplest tools are software features such as commenting (which lets colleagues write comments in a document without modifying the document text) and change tracking (which lets one or more writers propose changes to the text while keeping everyone's edits separate and reversible). The widely used Adobe Acrobat electronic document system (PDF files) also has group review and commenting features, including the option for live collaboration.
