Book Part Citation Count: 0Multi-disciplinary, Global Student Collaboration(Springer-verlag Berlin, 2014) Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, K.; Serce, F. C.; Information Systems EngineeringThe goal of this study is to understand the dynamics of collaboration within globally-distributed teams working in a realistic Human-System Interaction (further called HSI) environment and Software Engineering context. Quantitative data on communications were collected by capturing virtually all of the communications between the team members. Qualitative data were collected through the interviews conducted by the involved instructors. The results reveal some of the challenges associated with working in interdisciplinary and global settings and suggest areas of caution for such HSI educational experiences in the future.Conference Object Citation Count: 1Creating Smarter Teaching and Training Environments: Innovative Set-Up for Collaborative Hybrid Learning(Ios Press, 2016) Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Maia, Cristiano; Loomes, Martin; Serce, Fatma C.; Swigger, Kathleen; Brazile, Robert; Milewski, Allen; Information Systems EngineeringThis paper brings together previous work from a number of research projects and teaching initiatives in an effort to introduce good practice in setting up supportive environments for collaborative learning. The paper discusses prior use of social media in learning support, the role of dashboards for learning analytics in Global Software Development training, the use of optical head-mounted displays for feedback and the use of NodeXl visualization in managing distributed teams. The scope of the paper is to provide a structured approach in organizing the creation of smarter teaching and training environments and explore ways to coordinate learning scenarios with the use of various techniques. The paper also discusses challenges from integrating multiple innovative features in educational contexts. Finally the paper attempts to investigate the use of smart laboratories in establishing additional learning support and gather primary data from blended and hybrid learning pilot studies.Conference Object Citation Count: 4A Comparison of Team Performance Measures for Global Software Development Student Teams(Ieee Computer Soc, 2009) Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Serce, Fatma Cemile; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor; Information Systems EngineeringOne of the most difficult tasks for global software development researchers is quantifying the performance of groups and students who participate in these distributed projects [30]. There has been much debate about which factors better correlate with team performance and which best describe a successful team. The purpose of this paper is to compare the different approaches that have been used to evaluate the performance of global software learners and show how these techniques can affect research results. Using data from student groups engaged in global software development projects for the past year, the authors apply a number of different assessment methods and show their effects on different performance indicators. Our study suggests that the selection of appropriate measures to evaluate team performance can dramatically affect how one identifies successful teams.Conference Object Citation Count: 5Using Data Analytics for Collaboration Patterns in Distributed Software Team Simulations(Ieee, 2016) Dafoulas, Georgios A.; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Serce, Fatma C.; Swigger, Kathleen; Brazile, Robert; Alpaslan, Ferda N.; Lopez, Victor; Milewski, Allen; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Information Systems Engineering; Information Systems EngineeringThis paper discusses how previous work on global software development learning teams is extended with the introduction of data analytics. The work is based on several years of studying student teams working in distributed software team simulations. The scope of this paper is twofold. First it demonstrates how data analytics can be used for the analysis of collaboration between members of distributed software teams. Second it describes the development of a dashboard to be used for the visualization of various types of information in relation to Global Software Development (GSD). Due to the nature of this work, and the need for continuous pilot studies, simulations of distributed software teams have been created with the participation of learners from a number of institutions. This paper discusses two pilot studies with the participation of six institutions from two different countries.Conference Object Citation Count: 6Interaction Patterns Among Global Software Development Learning Teams(Ieee, 2009) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Information Systems Engineering; Information Systems EngineeringThis paper describes a study of the impact of communication behaviors on the performance of global software teams. Using a content analysis technique developed by [10], the researchers first characterized the asynchronous communications among student teams in Panama, Turkey and the US as they worked to complete a global software development project. Cluster analysis was then used to identify groups with similar communication patterns, which is defined as the proportion of time spent on each of the behaviors. Results suggest that particular patterns of communication behaviors are associated with higher performance. More specifically, it appears that communications related to the "contributing" category seem to have the strongest relationship to high performance.Conference Object Citation Count: 0When Do Distributed Student Teams Work?(2012) Swigger,K.; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Dafoulas,G.; Serce,F.C.; Alpaslan,F.N.; Lopez,V.; Information Systems EngineeringThe authors analyzed 2500 communication activities of student teams engaged in global software development projects during an 18 month period to determine the temporal behavior of students engaged in distributed group activities. The data revealed a number of daily, weekly, and project regularities, which provide insights into how distributed teams use their time. The results from this study show that students often work outside of the normal workday. Students' work habits are sometimes determined by where they live and what tasks they are performing. Moreover, students tend to work on group projects in cycles, which follow a start-middle-end pattern. Knowledge obtained from this study should provide insight into current empirical research on computer-supported collaborative learning by defining the different time variables that can be used to compare temporal patterns of online teams. © 2012 IEEE.Book Part Citation Count: 0MODA: A Micro Adaptive Intelligent Learning System for Distance Education(Ios Press, 2008) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Information Systems EngineeringThe paper presents a multi-agent module, called MODA, to provide micro-level adaptiveness in learning management systems (LMS). The adaptiveness provides uniquely identifying and monitoring of the learner's learning process according to the learner's profile. The paper covers the pedagogical framework behind the adaptation mechanism, the architecture of MODA and its agents, the protocol providing communication between MODA and LMS, and a sample application of the module to an open source learning management system, OLAT. The study also discusses the possibilities of future interests.Article Citation Count: 63Online Collaboration: Collaborative Behavior Patterns and Factors Affecting Globally Distributed Team Performance(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2011) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez, Victor; Information Systems EngineeringStudying the collaborative behavior of online learning teams and how this behavior is related to communication mode and task type is a complex process. Research about small group learning suggests that a higher percentage of social interactions occur in synchronous rather than asynchronous mode, and that students spend more time in task-oriented interaction in asynchronous discussions than in synchronous mode. This study analyzed the collaborative interaction patterns of global software development learning teams composed of students from Turkey, US, and Panama. Data collected from students' chat histories and forum discussions from three global software development projects were collected and compared. Both qualitative and quantitative analysis methods were used to determine the differences between a group's communication patterns in asynchronous versus synchronous communication mode. K-means clustering with the Ward method was used to investigate the patterns of behaviors in distributed teams. The results show that communication patterns are related to communication mode, the nature of the task, and the experience level of the leader. The paper also includes recommendations for building effective online collaborative teams and describes future research possibilities. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

The authors of the paper characterize the types of communication behaviors that occur when student teams are engaged in a software development project. The authors present findings from a one-semester study that examined factors contributing to successful distributed programming interactions among students enrolled at the University of Atilim (Turkey), Universidad Tecnologica de Panama, University of North Texas, and Middlesex University (UK). Using content and cluster analyses techniques, we identified distinct patterns of collaboration and examined how these patterns were associated with task, culture, GPA, and performance of collaborative teams. Our results suggest that communication patterns among global software learners may be related to task type, culture and GPA. It is hoped that these findings will lead to the development of new strategies for improving communication among global software teams.Article Citation Count: 9Exploring the Communication Behaviour Among Global Software Development Learners(inderscience Enterprises Ltd, 2011) Serce, Fatma Cemile; Serçe, Fatma Cemile; Swigger, Kathleen M.; Alpaslan, Ferda Nur; Brazile, Robert; Dafoulas, George; Lopez-Cabrera, Victor; Information Systems EngineeringThis study examines communication behaviours in global software learning teams. Using a coding scheme developed in previous research (Curtis and Lawson, 2001), the paper characterises communication behaviours of students engaged in a software development project. The paper reports the results of two pilot projects done with students in USA, England, Turkey and Panama. Through content analysis we identify distinct patterns of interactions and examine how these patterns are associated with task, culture, or performance. Our results suggest that communication patterns among global software learners may be related to task type, culture and levels of performance.
