Abstract:	摘要： In this study we proposed drag-and-response interaction mechanism of multi-touch operated tabletop technology which features a queue area, a rubber band and a transfer animation function. We conducted one experiment by applying our proposed drag-and-response and existing drag-and-drop and drag-and-pop mechanisms, one at a time, to support collaborative tasks on a large-size tabletop display. This study aimed to compare collaborative performance of participants on tasks with different interaction mechanisms and to explore effects of drag-and-response mechanism on awareness and collaboration of participants. Perceptions of participants toward using drag-and-response mechanism were also investigated. Results of this study revealed that drag-and-drop and drag-and-pop are not convenient mechanisms for collaborative work on a tabletop display. According to the results, drag-and-drop mechanism resulted in more exchange errors, while there were several conflicts and uncoordinated behaviors during collaborative work with drag-and-pop mechanism. Further investigation through questionnaire and interview surveys revealed that drag-and-response is beneficial for facilitating awareness and cohesive collaboration due to its functions, such as a queue area, rubber band and transfer animation. Moreover, the results showed that the rubber band facilitated participants to work with remote targets on a multi-touch tabletop display easily and the queue area enabled participants to control flow of coins into a personal panel and out of it. •Participants made less number of exchange errors and drops with drag-and-response mechanism.•It took longer time to complete tasks using drag-and-response mechanism.•Participants perceived drag-and-response mechanism was easy to use, useful, and playful.•Functions of drag-and-response mechanism could increase awareness of participants.•Drag-and-response mechanism can improve participants overall collaborative performance. 出版者： Elsevier Ltd 出版日期： 2013-09-01 出處： Computers and education, 2013-09, Vol.67, p.130-141 資源來源： Elsevier ScienceDirect Journals Complete 版權： 2013 Elsevier Ltd 識別號： ISSN: 0360-1315 識別號： EISSN: 1873-782X 識別號： DOI: 10.1016/j.compedu.2013.03.004
