Discussion
- Erasing the whole stroke: good or bad? Does it speed up the process or does it break the blackboard metaphor?
- I found good the relaxation of WYSIWIS in the four dimensions of collaboration.
- They proposed the used of different applications for Colab: How difficult was to switch between them?
- Cognoter imposes a formal social protocol: how good is that?
In fact this question is answered in the next paper, where the authors present how Cognoter was designed with an implicit (wrong) model of social interaction.
