Collaborative Distance: Multi-level Analysis Framework for Recommending Collaboration Structure and Safeguards
نویسندگان
چکیده
We developed a framework that assists in capturing the differences between two organizations. Collaborative distance captures the degree of similarity between the cooperating organizations across four separate levels of analysis: sector, organization, functional, and individual. Organizations that are very similar to each other are said to have “low collaborative distance” and organizations that differ on important characteristics are said to have “high collaborative distance”. We propose that this measure coupled with problem complexity ought to dictate the structure and safeguards for inter-organizational collaboration. We show a sample calculation of this measure.

متن کاملA Conceptual Framework for Collaborative Learning Systems Based on Agent Technologies
Existing distance learning systems provide collaboration tools (like forum, chat, wiki, etc.) presenting some limits that reduce the effectiveness of such tools from the standpoint of collaborative learning. Accordingly, a conceptual framework is needed that bridges the gap between the interaction forms characterising collaborative learning and existing learning collaboration tools. In this con...
