Activity awareness & social sensemaking 2.0: design of a task force workspace

• Foundations of Augmented Cognition, Proceedings of the 5th International Conference (FAC 2009)

Task forces of expert knowledge workers would benefit from more advanced web tools supporting activity awareness and social sensemaking. This paper proposes the design of a task force workspace, which is under development. It introduces the problem through a scenario, specifies requirements, and illustrates an modeling approach and the mockups of the functions in the proposed workspace. Key design issues are finally discussed.
