abstract |
In order to gain a better understanding of online collaborative conceptual design
processes this paper investigates how student designers make use of Lyceum, a shared
virtual synchronous environment when engaged in conceptual design. The software enables
users to talk to each other and share sketches when they are remotely located. The
paper describes a novel methodology for observing and analysing collaborative design
processes by adapting the concepts of grounded theory. Rather than concentrating on
narrow aspects of the final artefacts, emerging 'themes' are generated that provide
a broader picture of collaborative design process and context descriptions. Findings
on the themes of 'grounding – mutual understanding' and 'support creativity' complement
findings from other research, while important themes associated with 'near-synchrony'
have not been emphasised in other research. From the study, a series of design recommendations
are made for the development of tools to support online computer-supported collaborative
work in design using a shared virtual environment. |
