Question

Compare your network to that of your group members (two to four people in your class). Do you find any commonalities in your networks? Who has the greatest social capital, and why? What can you do to "optimize" your network structure?

Answer 1

ANSWER:

A group of 12 people will have some small groups with in the group

for example a group of 2-0 people The members of this small group also share knowledge and ideas with other members in the group like the members of large group The success this group also depends upon the communication between members As in the large group some members are strong ties and some are weak ties, same in the small group, some members have communication rm. all and some have only with one Generally, small groups have more powerful communication than large groups because a .w members can talk. each other freely But as the no of members is very few the quantity of knowledge and ideas to be shared is also n. much
Large groups have much social capital than smaller groups because they have a lot of ideas to share Large group members can share the ideas with many persons simultaneously Consent developed in a large group presents consent of the suety refs not any specific scale to measure the optimum structure for any group. in today's online groups, a network consists of several like-minded people Still we can define the optimum structure as the number of members that can manage the communication with each other Group of 12 people shall have optimum structure 'Me network density Ls closer to 1 So to optimize the structure, the communication of weak ties will haven be increased so that all lies are strong in the network
