The mission of Teamwork with Information Systems and Technology (TwIST) is to learn more about how social software can promote learning and collaborative research in a virtual environment.
TwIST researchers design, build, and test tools that let groups of learners express their individual views and questions, respond to the ideas of others, collaborate on shared learning goals, and otherwise interact in ways that promote learning. The lab is directed by CISAT professor Lorne Olfman.
