“…As a result, effective collaboration requires self-regulation of behavior to coordinate with others, with joint attention to maintain shared focus. Various studies show the benefits of collaboration in workplaces [34,38,49,61]. Collaboration is also considered as an essential twenty-firstcentury skill [16,41].…”

Social media and collaboration technologies are viewed as valuable tools for creating a new reality of collaborative learning, particularly in higher education facing millennials growing up with various technologies in their daily lives. Using the example of an undergraduate course taught on-campus, this study examines how millennial students in higher education use social media and other collaboration technologies in their collaborative learning activities to co-create new knowledge through the application of existing knowledge and the sharing of ideas. A semi-structured survey-based qualitative research method is used to reveal the primary decision factors driving students' technology choice for use in their collaborative learning tasks and to assess the impact of the use of such technologies on their learning experience and performance.The analysis reveals convenience as an important decision factor impacting millennial students' choice of social media and collaborative technologies to use in their team-based collaborative learning interactions. In particular, the three salient types of convenience emerge that matter to millennial students: convenient to everybody in the team, convenient to access and use, and convenient to collaborate with each other privately within the team. The analysis suggests that the use of social media and collaboration technologies chosen by students in their collaborative learning activities is more likely to result in students with positive collaborative learning experience than otherwise. In addition, a moderately strong correlation (r = 0.425, p < 0.01) is found between students' learning performance and their perception on the impact of the use of the technologies of their choice on learning experience. Based on the analysis, this study proposes a student-engaged, technology-choice-and-impact framework that captures the relationship between millennial students' convenience-driven technology choice and its impact on collative learning experience and performance. Further efforts should focus on investigating pedagogic designs that engage students in technology choice for improved collaborative learning experience and performance. The results of this study can inform educators and education technology providers in tailoring their approaches to incorporating technologies with learners in mind, thus turning their engagement into improved learning experience and performance.

“…The analysis of this type of organization gives three principal sources of value social structure, learning and generation of external economies in the network [6]. Research in cooperated systems has contributed to characterizing the following benefits for SMEs correlated to the relationship of cooperation among companies [7], [8], [9], [10] and [11]: increment of the market share; improvement of efficiency in using the company's asset; improvement of the level of services offered to clients; time reduction in developing a new product; sharing and cost reduction correlated to the development of new product; reduction of the risk in relation to the failure in the development of a new product; improvement of the quality of product; improvement of the level of competence and acquaintances inside the company; possibility to take advantage in a more effective way of company economies; reduction of stocks; facilitating access to the market. Further motives for engaging in inter-organizational ties and co-operation include access to information, resources, markets and technologies [12].…”

Abstract. New business models and theories are developing nowadays towards collaborative environments direction, and many new tools in sustaining companies involved in these organizations are emerging. Among them, a plethora of methodologies to analyze their needs are already developed for single companies. Few academic works are available about Enterprise Networks (ENs) need analysis. This paper presents the learning from an action research (AR) in the mechatronics sector: AR has been used in order to experience the issue of evaluating network needs and therefore define, develop, and test a complete framework for network evaluation. Reflection on the story in the light of the experience and the theory is presented, as well as extrapolation to a broader context and articulation of usable knowledge.
