When and if you have a online group project, there are a few things you should do to be successful. You should get to know your group members and establish each others roles in the project. To help make communicating with the members of your group, you can use chat or a conference call. When it comes to finding a time to meet you can make things easier by using sites such as www.doodle.com or www.whenisgood.net to find a good time for everyone to meet.
When creating group projects you can use wikis where all groups can work on the same projects and add things such as photos, videos, link or additional pages. You can also use google docs to create documents, presentations and spreadsheets and you can access them from anywhere you have internet by logging into your gmail account. Both of these options make it easy for groups to work together and edit projects without physically being together.
