The paper reviews work on informal technical help giving between colleagues. It concentrates on the process of how colleagues help each other to use a computer application to achieve a specific work task, contrasting this with the focus of much prior work on surrounding issues like the choice of whom to ask, information re-use and the larger work context of encouragement or otherwise of such learning. By an analysis of the literature and a study of office activity, some strengths and weaknesses of the method are identified. The difficulties of talking about the process of performing graphical user interface actions are explored. Various design implications for functionalities to improve the efficiency of informal help giving are explored. A consideration of informal learning can help in designing more effective, learnable, robust and acceptable CSCW systems. It also provides a different perspective on interface design as an exploration of features to support human–human interaction, using the computer screen as a shared resource to support this. In this way CSCW research may contribute to HCI research, since during such help giving, all computer systems are at least temporarily collaborative applications.

Abstract: Shared-workspace groupware has not become common in the workplace, despite many positive results from research labs. One reason for this lack of success is that most shared workspace systems are designed around the idea of planned, formal collaboration sessions���yet much of the collaboration that occurs in a co-located work group is informal and opportunistic. To support informal collaboration, groupware must be designed and built differently.

This paper describes theories and computer systems illustrating two innovative models of computer support for integrating working and learning. The VDDE system illustrates the design critiquing model helping individual professionals in analyzing current work situations, applying existing knowledge to these situations, and articulating new knowledge. The SmartMedia system illustrates the domain construction model helping communities of practice to collaboratively evolve new ways of working. KEYWORDS: Communities of Practice, Critiquing, Design Environments, Domain Construction, Workplace Learning. NATURE OF WORKPLACE LEARNING Workplace learning is fundamentally different from traditional school learning (see Table 1). Empirical studies of professional practice, by ourselves and others [12, 13, 17, 18], show that while the focus is primarily on getting the job done, learning is inextricably intertwined with working. Specifically, in order to do their job, professionals must continuall...

Households in Context is the first synthetic volume on houses and households in Ptolemaic and Roman Egypt. In a region where scholarly attention has often historically focused on monumental temples, tombs, and elite material and visual culture, a focus on households and domestic life provides crucial new perspectives on everyday dwelling practices and the interactions of families and individuals with larger social and cultural structures. This edited volume brings together interdisciplinary perspectives from contemporary research to reshape the ways we think about ancient people’s lived experiences of family, community, and society. Placing the archaeology and history of Greco-Roman Egypt in dialogue with recent theoretical and comparative research on households and dwelling, this book explores the critical role of quotidian experiences, objects, and images in creating the worlds of the people who lived with them. Households in Context reveals how ancient households functioned as laboratories for social, political, economic, and religious change.

In Antiquity the « fair war » or the « holy war » had been theorized against excess of violence. In modern times, « war crimes » have been thought as a definition of excess of military violence. In this paper, we try to compare the narrative approach on military violence in the text of the monk Strategios: the Fall of Jerusalem (614 A.D.), and modern ideas of « war crimes ». After a presentation of the historical background, we focus on four pre-concepts used in the text of Strategios : objectivation of military violence on civilians, martyrization of the victims, use of a comput of dead people in Jerusalem as a possible juridical proof against the adversaries, use of animal metaphors. Is it possible to think of these pre-concept as a form of juridical response to the military violence experimented at that time ?
