Description

Collaboration between teams is an essential component for success in work environments. However, working on tasks such as idea generation can often be tricky, with a lack of motivation, no clear structure, unbalanced participation, and never-ending conflicts. This project explore, understand and define conversational interfaces that can support group interactions and bring people together in a meaningful collaborative environment.  We investigate the following research question - How can embodied conversational interfaces empower creative collaboration in a group work environment amongst design students?
