• RE coordination using Tech in MTSs review
  • When tech can notify you that items marked as blocking a particular task - tasks that it's dependent on - have been completed, that helps with coordination.

    • Chapter (abstract below)Leadership for Global Virtual Teams: Facilitating Teamwork Processes | SpringerLink
      • This chapter considers the intersection of leadership and global virtual team dynamics. We consider four key developments in the science of team effectiveness as they apply to virtual teams: (a) team emergent states, (b) team phases, (c) teamwork processes, and (d) team leadership functions. First, we elaborate the importance of team emergent states, highlighting their relevance to team success and acknowledging that leadership is a prominent force to help facilitate their development. Second, we describe the interaction processes through which teams develop optimal emergent states and achieve their goals over time. Leadership is needed that shapes team processes throughout the team lifecycle, and thereby team emergent states and performance. In closing, we offer specific, research-based strategies to guide today’s virtual team leaders in enabling optimal team processes, illustrating these suggestions using examples drawn from a large-scale study of in global virtual teams.
    • Paper (abstract below)From teams in organizations to organizing in teams. - PsycNET
      • This chapter marks the transition from explaining the functioning of teams in organizations toward an emphasis on understanding organizing in teams. Research on teams in organizations has much to contribute to this broader inquiry into organizing in teams, but requires that the authors revisit some of the simplifying assumptions routinely made about teams in organizational research, and adopt a more encompassing definition of what constitutes a team. First, the chapter introduces the perspective of organizing in teams in order to encourage future research to better account for the wide array of collaborative organizational forms that involve teamwork. Then, it discusses recent theoretical and empirical work published in top outlets that has begun to tackle the challenge of studying organizing in teams. The chapter considers new frontiers in data sources and analytic approaches poised to advance this era of organizing in teams. Rapid advancements in technology are changing the way people collaborate as well as the methodological approaches researchers use to understand these collaborations. The chapter considers new sources of data and increasingly prevalent analytic approaches that can be harnessed to understand the purposive collaborative interactions that constitute 'organizing in teams'.

  • Summary

    • Recommended by Steve in context of Tech in MTSs review - as an example of how the incorporation of a new technology left challenges. Said I might not immediately see why he recommended it.
    • Read it, skimming parts that were details of mining. Had a lot of specifics I didn't need.
    • Old way of mining coal had everyone equally trained, and a very tight social system that worked well. It meant that the same miners worked together for years, with high degrees of trust and transparency.
    • New methods used larger teams, very little social support - and while those methods were brought over from engineering where they could work, in the dangerous, dark, underground mines, taking out the social support system creates problems.
    • They spend a lot of time in the details - but the basic takeaway is that you can't forget the human element.

• Learned how to do this: Tips put in double parentheses, that aren't actually blocks, get shown like this!
• Late night thoughts on third dimension Tech in MTSs review dimension Scribbles on dimensions of technology
  • Ugh. Below is not my view - it's not so bifurcated. Scratch this.
    • While the ability for computers to work independently and make contributions beyond that specifically programmed by any human is seen as the ultimate contribution of computers by some, that is a view of computers as independent actors, and the arc of the history of computing as leading to a point where computers and humans each work independently of each other...
  • Augmentating Intelligence The third dimension sees computers not as independently intelligent creatures of artificial origin, but as tools crafted by humans, for humans, as leverages of our own rich intelligence. (3 main ideas to discuss - levers to manipulate symbols representing knowledge/data; human-computer communication; and how most tech only taps into a few modalities of human intelligence. Might want to frame some of this as affordances)
    • Computers in this view serve as technologies in the older sense the world, as predates the digital age: computers are tools. Computers allow us to leverage our thinking, much as the tool of writing allowed us to codify knowledge and the tool of Arabic numerals allowed for richer discoveries in mathematics.
    • Earliest computers began by mimicking existing modes of thinking: writing linear documents, just as they had been written by hand and then by typewriter, albeit now with richer editing abilities.
      • Some trace many modern computing schemas to thinking that is still rooted in the printing press, and fault this way of thinking for the limited ways in which computers currently augment our intelligence.
    • But the power of computers as levers for our use is richer than fancy printing machines. Computers allow us to manipulate information in ways we could not otherwise do easily, or at all.
      • Computers can present the same information in multiple perspectives, such that the human can examine ideas and data from multiple views, and ask the computer to include or exclude sources of data or ideas
      • computers can allow for a dynamic manipulation of data or ideas, particularly in ways that could not be represented using analogue methods.
        • New representations of thought allow us to tap into latent capabilities that we already have, utilizing them to understand information in other ways. Many great ideas in history have been realizations that data could be represented in different ways: maps of the world, algebraic notation, data visualization.
          • (Thread to put later - really most relevant to say that these levers are only beginning to tap into how powerful computers can be as Intelligence Augmentation) The media we use to display those representations dictate how powerful the representations are. (Victor, 2014) (Maybe this is where I want to bring in affordances? They really fit both the perspectives and mediums thing - the perspectives are affordances for us, but the mediums are affordances for the perspectives)
      • Need to articulate more clearly the various ways computers can serve as a leverage tool - even before getting into tapping multiple modalities of intelligence. I think. Maybe the modalities will end up being the best way to start.
        • Include visual manipulation of ideas. Reusing the same information in multiple places, allowing one to manipulate and try finding patterns or meaning in multiple ways - and any later edits will affect all instances of that information. Manipulating information not just at the book or essay or document level, but at more granular levels - the atomic pieces of thought themselves can be played with, and all kept track of - paper can't do that. Definitely not with the speed and access that computers allow.
    • So far we have discussed the elements of intelligence augmentation as concerned with the capabilities of the computer awkward sentence - make sure doesn't make it anywhere. An equally important element is our ability to use that tool - to give instruction to the computer.
      • In early days of computing, all instructions had to be input via punch cards, and visual displays were largely text-based [@Rheingold1985]. Even the addition of some basic graphics required a supplementary screen with a dedicated technology. Communication between human and machine was very rudimentary. With the introduction of successively more sophisticated programming languages, programmers were able to give richer instructions to computers, and with time, create interfaces such that non-programmers could talk to computers in specific ways [@Rheingold1985]. This last step was an important one, as it finally presented some of the power of computing to those who did not program - in other words, to those who did not speak computer. Computers were finally learning to speak our language, rather than we, theirs. Recent advances in natural language recognition have improved further the ability of computers to understand our language, and the field of Brain-Computer Interfacing [BCI; @Wolpaw.Birbaumer.ea2002] is exploring how in the future we might interface more symbiotically with computers and realize early visions of the computer as a symbiotic tool [@Licklider1960a].
