1 inf 5200: Computer Supported Co- operative Work before the exam Tone Bra)eteig inf5200: 26/5 2015

2 purpose of the course Course content The course aims to give an overview of the research field Computer Supported Coopera;ve Work (CSCW). The ar;cles and discussions concern concepts and theories within the CSCW field, various approaches to and within the research field, studies of use of groupware and discussions about development of CSCW.

3 learning objectives Learning outcomes The course aims to give Master students in informa;cs an overview of the research field of CSCW that can cons;tute a basis for their own research in the field. The student should be able to give an account of the most important research tradi;ons and problem statements within the field, and they should know current debates about CSCW. Furthermore, they should know some groupware examples, and be able to discuss some par;culari;es in the development of CSCW. Emphasis will be given to their own posi;oning within the research field.

4 grading: A 1) have read all mandatory papers, know the main points (concepts) well, can answer all ques;ons. Have read some of the addi;onal readings 2) have made their own defini;on of cscw and can argue for it and apply it 3) have reflected on the papers and related them into a coherent picture of the field (which fits the defini;on of cscw above) 4) understand the fundamentals of the theories, can characterize their basic assump;ons, and based on this compare them 5) can see that and how the course readings relate to other informa;cs courses (own Masters thesis or prac;ce)

5 grading: C 1) have read all mandatory papers and can provide the main points (concepts) of most of them and answer the ques;ons in an acceptable way 2) have selected a defini;on of cscw and can provide arguments for it 3) have reflected on the papers and related some of them 4) have a basic understanding of the theories and can discuss their basic assump;ons, and based on this compare them (iden;fy some similari;es and differences)

6 grading: E 1) have not read all mandatory papers and can only provide the main points (concepts) of very few. Can only answer a few ques;ons and does not demonstrate that the papers have been understood 2) can present a defini;on of cscw but not give a good representa;on of its arguments 3) have not reflected on the papers and not related them 4) does not have a basic understanding of the theories, and cannot compare them
