Tele-guidance systems for the remote monitoring and maintenance of equipment have been extensively investigated. Such systems enable a remote helper to provide guidance to a local worker while perceiving local conditions. In this study, we propose a tele-guidance system that supports the anticipation of an interlocutor's actions during communication. Our proposed system enables a helper and worker to anticipate each other's actions by allowing them to move around in the workspace freely and observe each other's non-verbal cues (e.g., body motions and other gestures) through a head-mounted display. We conducted an experiment to compare the effectiveness of our proposed method with that of existing methods (a simple tele-pointer) that support anticipation during communication.

“…What may be important is for applications to be fluid, dynamic and moveable. Mobile storage bins [29] and adaptive personal territories [12] may provide some interesting solutions here where learners have the capability of grouping objects (in our case keywords and pictures) and moving them around as they position themselves around the tabletop. But there remain questions over such whether storage bin/personal territories move automatically as the children move or whether they should be moved manually by their owner.…”

“…In this respect, we miss out on how the detailed use of bodily positioning and orientation at the tabletop operates as an embodied and situated practice, to be combined with other gestures and actions in relation to tabletop artefacts and collaborators, and the particular social meanings these practices achieve. The work of Yamashita et al [29] provides us with a richer account of positioning and bodily orientation along these lines. This work is concerned in particular with how such action is organised around tabletops in distributed collaborative settings and how different video configurations and bodily views better enable the achievement of mutual orientation of awareness.…”

Abstract. We present a study of how children demonstrate physicality during collaboration around interactive tables at school. Our results show that children tend to dynamically position themselves around the tabletop area to effect particular social outcomes. These movements around the tabletop allow them to enact coordination strategies in their social interactions with each other to manage their learning and task-based activities. Our analysis indicates the importance of understanding physical strategies and behaviours when designing and deploying interactive tables in classrooms. We discuss how the design of tabletops in school can embrace the extensibility of this technology, providing access for children to shape their own collaboration strategies during learning.

Traditional communication tools tend to make their presence known, e.g., "when my collaborators and I are using IM to discuss our work, how could we not realize the actual presence of IM?" In the case of machine translation (MT) mediated collaborations, however, the absence or presence of MT is not obvious. English sentences with poor grammar can result from both a partner's lack of fluency and errors in the MT process. We hypothesize that partners' attributions about the source of the errors affects their collaboration experience. To test this hypothesis, we conducted a laboratory experiment in which monolingual native English speaking participants collaborated with bilingual native-Mandarin speakers on a map navigation task. Participants were randomly assigned into a 2 (beliefs about MT: absence vs. presence) by 2 (actual mediation of MT: absence vs. presence) experiment design. Beliefs about presence of MT significantly impacted the collaboration experience, opening new opportunities for both research and design around MT-mediated collaborations.
