Tabletop territoriality and social context: examining medical simulation
Ulrich von Zadow, Raimund Dachselt, Roberto Martínez‐Maldonado · 2014
We are interested in the influence that specific social con-texts have on tabletop territorial behaviour. To study this, we observed use of the collaborative educational simulation application SimMed by students and experi-enced doctors. In this particular setting, we found very little evidence of territorial behaviour. We report on the results of the study, examine possible causes for the ab-sence of territories and discuss potential implications for application design.
