Technology use and communication strategies of lrish and US students in virtual teams
Global virtual teams provide numerous benefits both for corporations employing virtual organizational forms and for individual teams and team members. However, virtual collaboration also presents some well-recognized challenges. A growing body of research has examined the process of virtual teaming and the challenges inherent in that process. Many recent studies have focused either on practitioners or students of business communication. Our study focuses on virtual team collaboration among technical communication students at the University of Limerick (UL) in Limerick, Ireland and at the University of Central Florida (UCF) in Orlando, Florida, USA. The research examines the students' technology use and communication strategies. Keywords: virtual teams, communication, technology.
