Workshop at COOP 2010 - 9th International Conference on the Design of
Cooperative Systems
Full day workshop on May, 18, 2010, COOP 2010 conference in
Aix-en-Provence, France
*Incentives and Motivation for Web-Based Collaboration (Webcentives)*
http://www.disa.unitn.it/net-economy/WEBCENTIVES/index.htm
Social Web and Semantic Web applications are based on large-scale user
participation. Open Source Software projects (OSS), gaming and other
online communities are constituted by voluntary engagement of
contributors, almost self-organized and self-managed. Also large-scale
intranet applications of business companies and non-governmental
organizations are increasingly relying on Social/Semantic Web
technologies and community-building.
The workshop focuses on motivation structures of users to participate in
(online) communities and to contribute to collaborative content
creation: What kind of motivation mechanisms, incentives or rewards are
appropriate to increase the (extrinsic) motivation of users to
contribute to online communities? What kind of community-support tools
are successfully designed for fun or motivation for participation?
Contributions to this workshop can include (but are not limited to):
* · psychological and/or economical studies on motivation and
incentives for web-based collaboration
* · ethnographic case studies on participation in online communities
* · incentives and reward mechanisms in online communities
* · studies on web-based community-building
* · theoretical approaches related to motivation and participation
in online communities
* · sociability (design) requirements for community tools and
applications
* · design studies of community platforms
* · prototypes, demonstrators, show cases of community-support or
web-based collaboration tools
* · asf.
