Abstract: In this paper we examine the cross-disciplinary collaboration of students who took a learning technology design course at Stanford over a three year period (2003-2005). The course is a member of the TRAILS project, which has collaboration and cross-disciplinarity as learning principles. Many students come to the class believing that they know how to collaborate and that they can do it on autopilot. We discuss four areas – teamness, communication, joint problem space and learning environment – which we believe need to be attended to by the students to ensure that the cross-disciplinary design project is successful in terms of both the product and students learning. Through two case studies we illustrate how these areas have differ...
