Processes and tasks in collaborative writing in engineering: research-informed views and pedagogical applications

Writing plays a central role in the activities that engineers carry out both in academia and industry. Different from other disciplines, in engineering a considerable amount of writing takes place as collaboration between a group of individuals. Despite this recognition, research in collaborative w...
