Paper Abstract:
|
Modern use of Internet technologies is being used to create unique environments supporting collaborative writing. Wiki sites of the late 1990's and the more recent development of blogging sites indicate a trend toward cooperation in creating objects of information. The authors are beginning a series of research projects to explore several variations of team-based, peer-evaluated co-authoring. The experimental environment consists of a web-conference with the functionality of a deliberative body. Authorized users propose enhancements to a shared document. Members can discuss the proposals via an integrated discussion utility and either approve or disapprove any proposed enhancements. Only those proposals approved by a predefined percent of participants are included in the shared document. This paper describes the environment and the goals of the ongoing research. |
