• The acknowledgment rate — how often partners give feedback of having perceived, understood, and accepted contributions — varies according to the medium and the content of interactions
• Tabletops tend to be small-group environments, contrasting with personal devices and public whiteboards — related
• Collaborative technologies support learning by enabling learners to share and exchange both ideas and their own digital products — related
• In multimodal collaboration, the whiteboard primarily represents the state of problem solving while chat grounds whiteboard content, contrary to the expectation that schemata on the whiteboard would disambiguate chat utterances — related
