Cognitive Systems Engineering for Collaboration CSE Blog | (0)
Collaboration is getting enormous amounts of attention from research, systems engineering, and commercial product sectors. Unfortunately, virtually all of that attention is based on a false premise: that recreating a physical environment, and a physical meeting will support collaboration. That premise presupposes that merely creating a virtual equivalent to a physically co-located meeting room will achieve the shared thought processes which underly truly effective collaboration. Cognitive Systems Engineering research (e.g. Woods, Patterson, et al 2002) clearly shows that there are more fundamental elements of cognitive work involved in what is colloquially known as 'collaboration'. From that research, we've developed both collocated ...
