Again, interesting for wiki-based projects. The percentages of total project time taken by each phase of the writing process is especially relevant to the student-created wiki textbook project I'm launching in my history class this week.<br>

What is collaborative authoring or writing? One definition is: activities involved in the production of a document by more than one author, then pre-draft discussions and arguments as well as post-draft analyses and debates are collaborative components. [1] Based on this definition, the collaborative authoring process includes the writing activity as well as group dynamics. Another definition is "...any piece of writing, published or unpublished, ascribed or anonymous, to which more than one person has contributed, whether or not they grasped a pen, tapped a keyboard, or shuffled a mouse." [61] This definition alludes to the complexity of identifying and acknowledging contributions and their contributors.

Nicole CarnalThis site gives examples of how to effectively collaborate with your team. It shows the different roles of each person and how to manage tasks.

The acts of collaboration and writing as they relate to collaborative authoring include: establishing an agenda or goal of the collaboration effort, identifying writing tasks and dividing those tasks among group members, tracking individual idea generation, defining rules for document management, identifying roles for group members, communicating ideas, and managing conflict. Collaborative authoring, therefore, requires effective communication between members of the writing group.

Kate SloaneI thought this article was helpful in our group projects. It's a good start to what we have to write about

- the degree to which goals are articulated and shared;
- the degree of openness and mutual respect;
- the degree of control the writers have over the text;
- the degree to which writers can respond to others who modify the text;
- the way in which credit (directly or indirectly) is acknowledged;
- the presence of an agreed upon procedure for managing conflicts and resolving disputes;
- the number and types of (bureaucratic) constraints imposed on the authors-- deadlines, technical/legal requirements, etc., and;
- the status of the project within the organization.
Survey one, which was administered to a large group of writers (approximately 800), provides information on the amount of time spent on the various phases of the writing process. The results show that generating ideas (14%), note-taking (13%), organizational planning (13%), drafting (32%), revising (15%), editing (13%) contribute to the total writing process. Ede and Lunsford [39] also examined co
llaborative authoring and the results indicates that the level of satisfaction in the group writing process is influenced by eight items:
-

- the team plans and outlines the task, then each writer prepares his/her part and the group compiles the individual parts, and revises the whole document as needed;
- the team plans and outlines the writing task, then one member prepares a draft, the team edits and revises the draft;
- one member of the team plans and writes a draft, the group revises the draft;
- one person plans and writes the draft, then one or more members revises the draft without consulting the original authors;
- the group plans and writes the draft, one or more members revise the draft without consulting the original authors;
- one person assigns the tasks, each member completes the individual task, one person compiles and revises the document;
- one dictates, another transcribes and edits. Results from the study indicated that the percentage of writing groups that use these methods often or very often range from 3% (method 5) to 31% (method 3).
Based on the results of the study conducted by Ede and Lunsford [39], seven organizational patterns for collaborative authoring were identified. These patterns are:
-
Interesting research on collaborative writing models. Obvious relevance to classroom wiki workshop designs and roles.<br>
