The authors analyze e-collaboration performance in two construction projects of differing complexity, to gain an understanding of how collaborative design based on building information modeling (BIM) is influenced by the complexity of the building project. 
The authors analyze e-collaboration performance in two construction projects of differing complexity, to gain an understanding of how collaborative design based on building information modeling (BIM) is influenced by the complexity of the building project.
The findings suggest that the perceived business value of BIM depends on project complexity and that BIM-based collaboration does not yield unconditional positive implications for all types of construction projects. 
The findings suggest that the perceived business value of BIM depends on project complexity and that BIM-based collaboration does not yield unconditional positive implications for all types of construction projects.
The authors argue that current practice would benefit from a more structured approach to building business cases for e-collaboration, comprising the following aspects: 1) a thorough assessment of BIM's potential benefits based on the complexity of the project; 2) an assessment of all designers' collaborative BIM capabilities and maturity; 3) a reliable cost estimate for full-scale BIM e-collaboration; and 4) a cost benefit analysis to identify the business value of BIM-based e-collaboration.

Learn how the students at HIOA Summer School faced the challenge. 
På Internasjonal sommerskoles gründercamp sto studentene ovenfor en tilsvarende utfordring.
International summer school is arranged this year as the fifth in a road. 
Internasjonal sommerskole arrangeres i år for femte år på rad.
The students are offered a meeting place where students from all over the world study together for a period of three weeks. 
Studentene tilbys en møteplass hvor studenter fra hele verden møtes over en periode på tre uker.
The main goal with the summer school is internationalisation. 
Det overordnede målet med sommerskolen er internasjonalisering.
This is achieved by using the knowledge that the students bring, into the lecturing. 
Dette oppnås gjennom å bruke kunnskapen studentene bringer med seg inn i undervisningen.
This summer, 63 students participate in one of the five different courses offered; LATINA- Learning and Teaching in a Digital world, Philosophy in Preschool and School, International Public Health, Globalisation and Development, Network and System Administration and Universal Design. 
I år deltar 63 studenter fordelt på et tilbud bestående av fem ulike kurs; LATINA - Learning and Teaching in a Digital World, Philosophy in Preschool and School, International Public Health, Globalisation and Development, Network and System Administration og Universal Design.
Several students every year get the opportunity to attend the innovation camp. 
Flere av studentene får hvert år tilbud om å delta på en gründercamp.
Innovation camp 
Gründercamp
It is the courses International Public Health and Globalisation and Development that arrange innovation camp on the fourth year, and is organized in co-operation with Kim Østberg Larsen, advisor in Young Innovationship. 
Det er fagene International Public Health og Globalisation and Development som for fjerde år på rad arrangerer gründercamp.
“Act locally, think globally”, is a slogan she tells her students. 
Videre sier hun til studentene sine: ”Act locally, think globally”.
Grimeland believes that the different approaches to the problems in which the students work with at innovation camp, gives them relevant knowledge and the ability to develop creativity, curiosity and innovation. 
Grimeland tror på at problemstillingene studentene jobber med på gründercampen gir dem relevant kunnskap og evne til å utvikle kreativitet, nysgjerrighet og innovasjon.
She thinks that these are important elements in the education process that can be transferred to the working life. 
Dette er viktige elementer i studiet som studentene kan ta med seg videre inn i arbeidslivet, mener hun.
Different topics 
Varierte temaer
Four groups were given their assignments Thursday morning. 
Fire grupper fikk torsdag morgen utdelt sine temaer.
Among these were the challenges of developing policies to support maternal & child health, and challenges in changing animal practice management and negotiating the implementation of IPH, some of the topics the students could choose from. 
Helsefremmende tiltak knyttet til HIV/AIDS-problematikk, utfordringer ved å utvikle fremgangsmåter for å støtte mødre og barns helse i utviklingsland og utfordringer i å endre dyreholdpraksis var noen av temaene IPH-studentene hadde valget mellom.
The groups now have only 24 hours to develop a project, and save the world. 
De har nå 24 timer på seg til å utarbeide et prosjekt.
A group of four students were already working hard on their project when I met them Thursday morning. 
En gruppe på fire studenter var allerede i full gang med sitt prosjekt da jeg møtte dem torsdag formiddag.
This group had chosen to work with the topic zoonosis, and especially with regards to sheep husbandry in India. 
Denne gruppen hadde valgt å ta for seg temaet smitte mellom dyr, fra dyr til mennesker og fra mennesker til dyr.
The students exchanged knowledge from their home countries, searched for literature and developed their business plan. 
De har i forlengelse av dette valgt å ta for seg sauehold i India.
The conclusion was clear; working with the innovation camp is motivating, engaging and very educational. 
Studentene utvekslet erfaringer fra deres hjemland, søkte etter litteratur og utarbeidet sin business-plan.
Their business plan has to be ready and presented to the jury 10 AM next morning. 
Konklusjonen var klar: arbeidsmetoden som en gründercamp er gir god motivasjon til å jobbe inngående med et tema og er svært lærerikt.
Can knitting give hope? 
Kan strikking gi håp?
Two winners are going to be acclaimed. 
To vinnere skal kåres.
Based on these, one group stood out and received both the first price of the jury and was also the audience favourite. 
Det var én gruppe som skilte seg ut og som fortjent gikk av med seieren både som juryens og studentenes favoritt.
The winning project had the catchy name “Knitting Hope” and was based on developing women’s knowledge on health and education, combined with the making and retail of traditional handicraft in Ethiopia. 
Konseptet gikk under det fengende navnet ”Knitting Hope” og tok utgangspunkt i å styrke kvinners kunnskap om helse og utdannelse i kombinasjon med tradisjonelt håndverk i Etiopia.
The product they planned to create was knitted cell-phone and laptop protectors. 
Det konkrete produktet gruppen fremmet var et strikket etui for mobiltelefon og PC.
Maybe the concept will be implemented, maybe not. 
Kanskje vil konseptet bli satt ut i livet, kanskje ikke.
However, the students now have an awareness of how innovation and making the world better can be knitted together. 
Uansett vil studentene som deltok på gründercampen ta med seg mye ny lærdom i ryggsekken om hvordan innovasjon og kunnskap går hånd i hånd.
