Virtual Worlds as CSCW Tools

2007 - 2013

Collaborative virtual environments (CVEs) such as the popular Second Life can be very helpful as tools for Computer Supported Cooperative Work, in particular because they support social bonds between co-workers - which in turn can have known positive effects on group productivity. In our research group, we investigated how the interaction design (user - avatar - virtual world) influences the group interaction and collaboration processes in CVEs, and how effective team support in CVEs can be designed.
