“…When we set out to understand the difficulties we had encountered as researchers on the collaborative projects described in this chapter, we found a vast raft of literature concerning computer supported cooperative working, e-research and virtual research environments (King & Deepwell, 2006). We saw the term "e-research" used to define the information and communications technology infrastructure and processes developed to support collaborative virtual research, as well as the research itself.…”

“…In these new e-research groupings, however, there were unanticipated barriers to realizing the organizational synergy offered by electronic collaboration across educational institutions. A previous examination of the features of these projects explored the extent to which they mirror global and national initiatives to introduce virtual research environments (King & Deepwell, 2006).…”

Summary: "This book presents a collection of empirical work that examines techniques, strategies and effects of electronic collaboration across disciplines and sectors"-Provided by publisher. Includes bibliographical references and index. ISBN 978-1-60566-106-3 (hardcover)-ISBN 978-1-60566-107-0 (ebook) 1. abstract In this chapter, we consider two multi-institution, multinational education research projects in Europe that used a variety of technology to facilitate online collaboration as virtual communities of practice. While judged as successes by their funding bodies, the projects both exhibited symptoms of conflict that were subsequently resolved. We apply a personal inquiry technique and draw on situational analysis to identify and explore the conflict resolution processes associated with issues of leadership, organization, and technology in e-research. We contend that the communication technologies themselves must support the development of a collaborative community; and that the social, technical, and cultural facets of electronic collaboration evolve integrally over time. We conclude by proposing strategies that may assist colleagues in setting up a successful e-research project.
