| Popis: | In many instances of collaborative writing, ideation and deliberation about what to write happen in a separate space from the actual document writing. However, having discussion and writing separated may result in a final document that has little connection to the discussion that came before. In this work, I build upon a hybrid discussion and document-writing tool called Wikum+ to allow groups to mix having discussions and summarizing those discussions in real-time, until the process results in a final document that incorporates and links all discussion points. I conduct a pilot study where a group used Wikum+ to collaboratively write a proposal, while a control group used a messaging platform along with Google Docs. From analyzing survey and interview results, I found preliminary evidence that Wikum+'s integration of discussion and summarization helped users be more organized as well as more inclusive of ideas in the final document. Wikum+ allowed for more light-weight coordination and iterative improvements through the incorporation of new ideas. |
