Description

We will look at computer supported collaboration of collaborative units of any size: dyads, small groups, large groups, organizations, communities and social networks. For each collaborative unit, we will first look at their collaboration problems and what theories have to sayabout them. Then we will analyse how, and to what extent collaboration can be engineered for each of them. Finally we will discuss systems supporting their collaboration and how they should be designed.

The course is aimed at Bachelor's degree students in the last two semesters and Master's degree students.
