Abstract :
This paper discusses issues concerned with teaching of use of Internet technologies and groupware in information systems. It identifies three strongly related parts in this subject area, namely, technical, social and design processes and describes how they differ from existing transaction based systems. The paper then suggests an approach for teaching about cooperative systems. It then outlines the kinds of topics that should be included in curricula and illustrates with an example of an ongoing course
