Foil 4 What is a Collaborative System

From Tango in Training and Collaborative Simulation and Planning Technical Program: ITEA HPCC Conference Aberdeen Md. -- July 14 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Marek Podgorny
1 Collaborative Systems share information between participants (students and teachers/planners) either synchronously
  • conferencing; white board; shared simulations/visualizations; shared curricula pages; chat rooms; special resources such as voting/"raise hands" applets
2 or asynchronously as in email or Lotus Notes
  • threaded discussion calendars; documents (this is basic database or web server)
3 All can be integrated using web export of database/Lotus Notes as a common interface (XML is particularly attractive here)
