A Comparison of Face-to-Face and Groupware Meeting Approaches on a Collaborative Writing Project.

Perreault, Heidi R.; Moses, Duane R.

Delta Pi Epsilon Journal, v34 n4 p151-66 Fall 1992

Twelve groups of business students met face to face to complete a report; 10 groups used groupware (computerized decision support system). Overall report quality did not differ, although groupware users needed more time. Appearance and appropriate format were rated higher for the face-to-face group, and students found this method easier, faster, and more convenient. (SK)
