Abstract

Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) is the study of how people work together using computer technology. It is a multi-disciplinary research field dealing with the social, theoretical, practical and technical aspects of collaboration and how the use of technology can affect groups, organisations and communities.

Objective

In this seminar, we will provide an introduction to the field of CSCW and the students will then select specific topics for presentation.

Content

The diversity of the CSCW field will be seen in the range of topics which may cover anything from ethnographic studies of cooperative work to reports of the development of CSCW systems and their technological foundations.
