Abstract

The authors present an integrated overview and extension of a conversational approach to support analysis and design of goal-driven and focused interaction between stakeholders and facilitators, to be specifically applied in collaborative modeling. Complementary to ‘collaborative diagram drawing’ approaches, the authors provide more focused and accessible, wizard-like or even game-like conceptualization support. This work is rooted in theory as well as (study of) industrial practice. Ideas developed in over half a decade, as well as some new concepts, are coherently presented, centering on the notion of ‘Dialogue Games’. The approach is brought under the umbrella of the ‘ThinkLet’ approach from Collaboration Engineering, and is positioned as a specialization thereof, aiming to fit the specific needs and features of collaborative modeling.
