Abstract

In this study, we suggest an effective design model for workshops to generate what we call "emergent collaboration" among participants. First, we set up a hypothesis that emergent collaboration is facilitated when participants are assigned a task involving two conditions that are seemingly conflicting but are open to interpretation. Then we conducted 8 workshops for undergraduate students (four of the sessions were designed on our hypothetical formula and the other four were not), and analyzed the process of collaboration at each session. As a result, we found that in the sessions based on our design model, participants were stimulated to look at their object and ideas from different perspectives, which led to emergent collaboration in most cases. In addition, analyzing the exceptional cases, we found that, emergent collaboration was not promoted when participants did not see two conditions as conflicting. While these exceptions suggest the need for deliberate examination of the conflicting nature of two conditions on the side of workshop designers, the analysis of the findings, as a whole, showed our hypothesis is highly effective.
