This project seeks to discover where students living in the dorms currently perform academic collaboration. Academic collaboration is the methods students use to study and get the most out of their academic career. The interactions this project will focus on will be those between the student studying as an individual, the student studying in a small group, and the student studying by using technology. This information will then be used to see if there is a way to create a physical space or environment, possibly a "third place," and an application that would better facilitate this interaction. This research will take into account how students use place-making to define their own space, as well as how involving students in the design process through participatory design, will aid in the student claiming ownership of that space. Two Supplemental Files accompany this document: Fieldnotes and Presentation.
