Collaborative Computing

In the ELC lab, we do research on collaborative computing.. We study how people work together online, and use those insights to design new collaborative systems. We deploy those systems with real users, and study what happens using both qualitative and quantitative methods.

New research in the ELC Lab includes studies of people's privacy practices on Facebook, and how people use social media in Cuba. We are also studying how Internet users (mis)understand intellectual property and how that shapes their online creativity..
