Abstract

The impact of the Internet on working practices has been profound, in terms of how people communicate, collaborate and network. In parallel, there has being increasing prominence given to interdisciplinarity as a means of addressing cross-disciplinary research challenges. This poster explores how interdisciplinary research can make better use of new technologies as a means of developing shared understanding. Interdisciplinary projects investigating Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) make a particularly relevant site for such research. We have found that a key means of support for the development of work on interdisciplinary projects is the development of mediating artefacts to support the articulation and process of discourse.
