Compare your network maps, and discussing with your peer, answer the following questions:
For Time 1,
How would you describe the network in your own words?
Who is important in the network? How do you know?
Who is outside the network?
Does anyone play a role across different parts of the network?
For Time 2, answer the same questions:
How would you describe the network, in your own words?
Who is important in the network?
Who is outside the network?
Does anyone play a role across different parts of the network?
Now compare your two network maps:
What is different both in the network as a whole and n the position occupied by particular individuals?
