In general, performance in a group is carried out by face-to-face meetings, but for now, face-to-face meetings are not only means of communication by workgroups or organizations. In the last 20 years, information and communication technology (ICT) has shown a new communication platform, especially in working groups. So that emerging research that discusses workgroups that focus on new ways to communicate in groups. However, there are no studies to date that express communication via computers in groups over time. The researcher is interested in discussing it with quantitative research methods; data are taken from 44 participants, 22 groups working in face-to-face conditions, and 22 groups working in Zoom Meeting conditions. Participants are 11th-grade students of Madrasah Aliyah Banjaran who are enrolled in extra-curricular entrepreneurship. The mean age was 17 years old, 32 students were male (18%), and 144 were female (82%). The composition of each group has the same proportion. The results showed that virtual communication could improve group performance, and it is necessary to develop group potential in virtual teams.

Due to the increasingly widespread use of various information and communication technologies (ICT), individuals from different countries and cultures are able to learn and work collaboratively in virtual environments (Mowshowitz, 1997). Electronic communication tools, such as chat, e-mail, and the World Wide Web, now make it possible for students and employees to communicate and problem solve with colleagues irrespective of geographical location (Scott, 2000). One of the major downsides of this form of collaboration, though, is that members of a virtual team do not have the advantage of face-to-face interaction and communication. Instead they must rely solely upon an assortment of computer-supported cooperative-learning and class-work tools and strategies—some planned, some ad hoc—to coordinate resources (Bichelmeyer, Cagiltay, Evans, Paulus, & An, 2004). Unfortunately, little research has been conducted to systematically investigate the dialectic between culture and computermediated communication (CMC). There is currently an insufficient understanding of how individual learning and work, cultural features, and CMC mutually influence one another in a purposeful, virtual setting.

Group faultlines are hypothetical dividing lines that may split a group into subgroups based on one or more attributes. An example of a strong faultline is a group of two young female Asians and two senior male Caucasians. Members’ alignment of age, sex, and ethnicity facilitates the formation of two homogeneous subgroups. On the other hand, when a group consists of a young female Asian, a young male Caucasian, a senior female Caucasian, and a senior male Asian, the group faultline is considered weak because subgroups, regardless of how they are formed, are diverse. As a relatively new form of group compositional pattern, the group faultline is associated with subgroup formation, and these subgroups, rather than the whole group, can easily become the focus of attention. When members strive to obtain more resources and protect their subgroups, between-subgroup conflict, behavioral disintegration, lack of trust, lack of willingness to share information, and communication challenges are likely. As a result, group performance is often negatively affected, and sometimes groups may even be dissolved. These results were repeatedly found in studies of experimental groups, ad-hoc project groups, organizational teams, top management teams, global virtual teams, family businesses, international joint ventures, and strategic alliances.

The reference services have evolved and changed since the introduction of information and communication technologies in academia. Since its inception at the end of the XIX century great changes have taken place, especially when we refer to access to the enormous range of data and information available. The article approaches concepts of reference services and portrays reference services in Brazilian university libraries. Its purpose is to characterize Brazilian reference librarians and the medium in which reference services occur. The methodology used in this study integrates elements of qualitative and quantitative research. To collect data, the questionnaire was developed and made available to digital librarians in reference services of Brazilian university libraries. The results show a majority, female, between the ages of 35 and 40, post-graduated for a maximum of ten years, with a higher education in librarianship working in a university library, for a maximum of ten years and in reference services for a maximum of five years, linked to some central library or library system and that seek continuous training in courses, training and events in the area in which it operates, in short periods. The reference services occur in digital and face-to-face, the main information sources are the periodicals, theses and dissertations, made available and accessed through the portal informational resources of electronic journals and databases, mainly in the health and biological areas. The communication process for the reference transaction occurs predominantly with the use e-mail and landline telephones, social networks are used by most libraries, with Facebook and Twitter being the most used, mainly in the dissemination of products and services. The communication is carried out by librarians, prevailing in the Portuguese language.

Virtual Setting

The use of computer-mediated communication (CMC) is more popular than ever in both educational and corporate settings. Schools and corporations are using virtual communication to replace or supplement in-person classes and meetings. Many educators and managers are taking it a step further, having teams work in a virtual setting with members rarely or never meeting each other in person. Can a virtual team be as successful as a team where everyone works in the same physical location? Does anything different need to be done to compensate for the lack of face-to-face contact? This article identifies unique factors for virtual teams, and then provides recommendations and guidelines that can help virtual teams be successful. With the right planning, virtual teams can equal or exceed the performance of face-to-face teams.

Conducting Research

The paper by Bélanger, Watson-Manheim, and Jordan (2002) addresses the gap between research conducted and practitioner concerns in virtual work. One of the key difficulties in conducting research in this area is the overlap between terms used (McCloskey & Igbaria, 1998; Pinsonneault & Boisvert, 2001). While there are other distributed work arrangements such as hotelling, neighborhood work centers and flextime, most of the previous literature has focused on telecommuting (telework) and virtual teams/ organizations. In this article, the term virtual work represents work environments where individuals spend some time working in a non-face-to-face (FTF) mode, using information and communication technologies to perform work activities. Virtual work environments are increasingly employed by organizations. While there is increased complexity and potential for problems, virtual work strategies allow organizations a great deal of flexibility to compete in a rapidly changing business environment. While existing research provides insights into such environments, it does not clearly deal with major concerns faced by managers (referred to as the “gap” between research and practice). One of the potential reasons for this gap is that practicing managers are concerned with current challenges in their own work setting while academics are concerned with developing more generalizable rules and understanding.

Education Process

This research aims to examine pre-service music teachers’ views on piano lessons provided in the emergency remote education process during Covid-19 lockdown. The population of the research comprises 82 students studying at the Departments of Music Education at Kastamonu University and Gazi University. The survey model, which is one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. Research data were collected through a “pre-service teacher feedback form” comprising 19 questions prepared by the researchers and finalized through expert opinions; the data obtained are compiled under relevant tables. The results of the research indicate that majority of the pre-service teachers follow piano courses through their computers, that more than half of the students have the opportunity to play the piano and/or keyboard at home, that they have problems with sound and image synchronization, and that they evaluate the infrastructure of the courses as inadequate. The opinions of the pre-service candidates expressing that they want to pursue their piano education face-to-face after the pandemic ends and that the instrument education they received during emergency remote teaching is not acceptable, which also due to the insufficient level of digital literacy, are also among the results of the research. Pre-service music teachers suggested that piano courses should be held one-on-one and face-to-face, the synchronization problem should be resolved, and the hours for piano courses should be increased. The results of the research presented suggestions regarding the instrument education process and future studies to be conducted on this subject.

The Ideal

Virtual communication is a preferred working style for remotely structured teams to remain productivity while reducing cost. A variety of information and communication technologies (ICTs) are available for providing technical support to virtual teams. While companies as a whole have been accumulating a good deal of experience for executing virtual collaboration, challenges still exist due to the nature of different industries or organizations' business environment. The goal of this paper is to explore the types of ICTs adopted and ICT intensity implemented by contemporary virtual teams. Interview-based cases with companies located in U.S., U.K., and China were conducted to achieve our goal. Important insight for research and practice are discussed.

Effect Of Support

Relationships between children and parents are so familiar or often communicate face to face because they live in one house. When far away the closeness of parents and children is still maintained as if they lived in one house or not. Basically, parents and children must want to communicate even if they are just asking to let go of homesickness. The purpose of this study is to find out and explain the effect of openness on long distance relationships, to determine the effect of empathy for long distance relationships, and to determine the effect of support for long distance relationships. This study uses quantitative research methods. Data collection techniques used were questionnaires. The questionnaire used has passed the validity test. Questionnaires were distributed to 42 respondents selected from 168 populations using random sampling techniques. The data obtained is processed using the SPSS data processing program. The results obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis techniques. The results that can be taken from this study are: (1) aspects of self-openness to long distance relationships are normal that self-disclosure does not have a significant relationship to long-distance relationships. (2) the aspect of empathy for long distance relationships is normal but the results of empathy are not related to long distance relationships. (3) aspects of support for long distance relationships are normal and support does not affect long distance relationships.
