  1. 1. Shared Virtual Environments : Technology, Social Interaction, and Adaptation over Time

    Författare :Maria Spante; Erik Stolterman; Institutionen för teknik och samhälle Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Shared virtual environments; virtual reality technology; social interaction; adaptation; collaboration; time; Informatik; Informatics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates social interaction and adaptation over time in shared virtual environments. Shared virtual environments (SVEs) are computer generated 3D graphical spaces where geographically distributed people can meet and interact with each other in a graphical space. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Connected Practice: The Dynamics of Social Interaction in Shared Virtual Environment

    Författare :Maria Spante; Ralph Schroeder; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the phenomenon of social interaction in shared virtual environments (SVEs), supported by virtual reality (VR) systems over time. SVEs are computer generated 3D graphical spaces where geographically distributed people can meet and interact with each other in a graphical space. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Virtual Learning Environments in Higher Education : A Study of User Acceptance

    Författare :Christina Keller; Sven Carlsson; Birger Rapp; Fredrik Nilsson; Lars Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; e-learning; web-based learning; virtual learning environment; technology acceptance; organisational learning; diffusion of innovations; Informatics; Informatik; Economic Information Systems; Ekonomiska informationssystem;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis was to create knowledge about factors influencing acceptance of virtual learning environments among academic staff and students in blended learning environments. The aim was operationalised by four research questions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Framing Social Interaction in Shared Virtual Environments: The Influence of Technical and Social Factors

    Författare :Ann-Sofie Axelsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; virtual reality; presence; intercultural communication; communication media; computer games; social interaction; status differences; common ground;

    Sammanfattning : Virtual Reality (VR) for multiple users is a new technology which is increasingly used for diverse purposes such as distributed collaborative work, visualization, and entertainment. Despite this, little is yet known about what kind of social interaction the technology generates. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The effect of modality on social presence, presence and performance in collaborative virtual environments

    Författare :Eva-Lotta Sallnäs; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; collaborative virtual environments; modalities; media richness; social presence; presence; communication media; haptic force feedback; Information technology; Informationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Humans rely on all their senses when interacting with others in order to communicate and collaborate efficiently. In mediated interaction the communication channel is more or less constrained, and humans have to cope with the fact that they cannot get all the information that they get in face-to-face interaction.
