Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW)

Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) is a field that studies how people use technology to collaborate and work together effectively, especially when they are in different locations. It involves designing and improving digital tools—like shared documents, messaging platforms, and project management software—that facilitate communication, coordination, and cooperation. CSCW aims to make teamwork more seamless and productive by understanding how technology can support social interactions, decision-making, and information sharing within groups or organizations.
