Workshop Overview

Susan R. Fussell, Carnegie Mellon University
Qiping Zhang, Long Island University

The goal of this workshop was to bring together researchers and designers with interests in the relationship between culture and the design and use of collaborative technologies. The workshop addressed three challenges for the study of culture and collaborative technology:

1. Developing a conceptual framework

2. Developing suitable methodologies

3. Designing technologies to support multiple cultures and/or to facilitate cross-cultural interaction.

Workshop goals included identifying key areas for future research, specifying design recommendations, fostering new collaborations among researchers interested in culture and, optionally, producing an edited book.
