Abstract

This chapter presents a case study of virtual collaboration that focuses on a research and production team’s approach to making choices about the most appropriate technologies to support the team’s interactions. The study highlights the importance of establishing clear, well-defined roles for collaborators as well as the importance of explicitly acknowledging the institutional context within which the work was undertaken. The chapter concludes with a series of recommendations based upon the experience of this virtual collaboration.
