CoPra2Go: An APP for Coding Collaboration Processes

Organizations seek ways how to support teams in their communication but face challenges how to make communication processes measurable and visi-ble. Past communication research came up with numerous interaction coding sys-tems enabling the analysis of communication. However, today we see only few applications in research and practice due to the labor-intensive effort connected to coding and analysis. This paper addresses this problem and introduces the iPad application CoPrA2GO that strives to make the coding and analysis of commu-nication more convenient and applicable for researchers and practitioners. A user acceptance test was conducted involving 4 IS graduate students coding 23 team meetings in real-time. Our findings suggest that CoPrA2GO is useful for coding communication in real-time and providing feedback immediately after meetings.
