I think the building of our online community is growing stronger with each session. In the beginning it was a process to figure out how everything operated and how the class was going to be run. However, over the weeks I believe our virtual community has grown in terms of better understanding and functionality. As we review readings from different examples of communities, we learn what has worked in the past and what has not. Understanding the how to communicate better with one another through blog posts and slack has also helped better the community by allowing for clearer channels of communication for both the students and the teachers.
