• 論文抄録 / 内容記述: Currently, there are various kinds of problems to solve in regards to the dynamics of group discussions. In discussions, thinking various ideas and putting them into some meaningful conclusion, in other words, divergence and convergence of ideas are the main and most important processes. Importantly, the education for thinking ideas and discussing them in a group are not popular in Japan. Furthermore, in general Japanese people are not good at group discussion techniques like Brainstorming because they think too carefully about their positions in the group and evaluating their ideas harmoniously. In this paper, we will examine these problems. Brainwriting is one of the group thinking methods utilized in our research. In this method, Participants are not allowed to talk to other members but, instead, write their ideas on a piece of paper. Therefore, each member does not need to worry about their debating skill and the judgment of their ideas. We have developed a Group thinking support system based on the Brainwriting method. The proposed system supports not only the divergence stage of an idea but also the evaluation and convergence stage. We performed some experiments to evaluate the proposed system by comparing it to the original style of Brainwriting using paper sheets. As a result, it is shown that group thinking, using the proposed system, can let the subjects feel more anonymity than the original method using paper. Furthermore, the system provides the environment in which the subjects can feel free from their positions in the group and the anxiety of proposing their ideas.
