  1. Lecture 2: Computer-Supported Collaborative Design Tools & Technologies Dr. Xiangyu WANG August 4th, 2008

  2. Outline • Tools • Classification

  3. Facts about tools • What happens in face-to-face communication/collaboration? • Non-verbal cues: • spatial orientation, • body posture, • hand gesture, • glancing, gaze and eye contact, • facial expression, • awareness of others, • non-verbal turn-taking cues.

  14. Class exercise: put the following tools into the time/place matrix • Wiki • Email • Web conferencing • Online forum • Mailing list • Instant messaging • Physical bulletin board in the hallway • Chat room • Shared Whiteboard • Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) • Microsoft Surface • Social map/tool (Frappr) • Google Docs • Facebook • Twitter

  15. Same time Different times Microsoft Surface Physical bulletin board Same place Web conferencing Instant messaging • Chat room • Shared Whiteboard • CVE • Google Docs • Twitter • Facebook • Frappr Email Wiki Mailing list Twitter Facebook Google Docs Online forum Different places
