Abstract

We conducted a field study to explore empirically the myths and realities of a computer supported dispersed learning community. We assisted a geographically distributed team in organising its daily work practice. This was done by introducing a collaboration platform (technology) accessible for all via the internet where information (content) was provided by team members (social roles). In this paper we report the experiences after a one year period of use. The field study is still going on. By now valuable information can already be given about how self-organised learning and knowledge sharing emerges in the daily practice of co-learning and collaboration, about the criteria a system should fulfil to be suitable for daily use, and about conditions which can foster future use.
