O'Brien, William J.; Soibelman, Lucio; Elvin, George
Journal of Construction Education, v8 n2 p78-93 Sum 2003
In a capstone course, graduate students from two universities participated in collaborative design in the architectural, engineering, and construction industries in multidisciplinary teams via the Internet. Students also developed process designs to integrate technology into multidisciplinary teamwork, combining active and reflective learning. Challenges included differences in disciplinary cultures and difficulties with online observation and feedback. (Contains 14 references.) (SK)
