    Augmented Media    
  How good are annotated videos at improving shared understanding? We test annotated videos as the medium for passing the bubble in an interrupted game: a new player resumes the game after attending an annotated video.  More

    Collaborative Environments    
  We are currently conducting research on team collaboration in hopes of gaining a better understanding of how we can enhance collaborative environments to increase effectiveness.   More     > Collab Env Home

    Context Aware Office    
  What are some of the ways we can use the power of the digital world to enhance the way we work with paper in a way that understands how people actually work?   More     > Home

    E-Learning    
  We examine the cognitive basis of successful multimedia designs. We will be interested in what makes an interactive system effective: what makes images easy to understand, animations clear and helpful, and why some sequences of text, images, and sounds make more sense than others.   More

    Information Architecture    
  In designing large scale information spaces, such as are currently found in corporate intranets or large scale knowledge management systems, the biggest challenge is to discover a set of organizing principles that is at once powerful enough to assign all content a meaningful location and yet simple enough for users to understand. More     > Info Arch Home

    Previous Projects    
  Previous projects in the lab focussed on: cognition in tetris, particularly as this showed epistemic actions; interactive stategies in a variety of natural contexts such as counting coins, playing scrabble, working with children's blocks. Controlled experiments were performed on differences between animation and static images; and another study examined the way people interactively do library searches. More     > Previous Projects Home
