Case Study on social software

Workpackage:
Social Software

Number:
15.2

Date:
M42

Abstract:
This document outlines four different case studies on the use of Social Software in distributed working environments. While two case studies focus on the corporate world, two other case studies look at the use of Social Software in academic workplaces.
The concluding remarks identify some common benefits as well as issues with the use of Social Software and to derive some further research challenges from the different cases. The findings for future research need to be directed towards strategies for corporate learning and working environments to effectively integrate Social Software solutions for very specific needs in different institutional cultures. Therefore the continuation of social software applications in practice, including some other case studies from non-corporate or non-academic, will be essential for WP 15.
