We are organizing again the workshop on Interdisciplinary Insights into Group and Team Dynamics which is a joint effort between researchers in the the ICMI and INGRoup (Interdisciplinary Network for Group Research) communities. This workshop aims to provide a common destination for researchers to exchange ideas and collaborate. We have found in previous years that instigating interdisciplinary collaborations can be hard. The aim of this workshop is to sustain a joint community to foster continued cross-disciplinary exchange and mutual understanding.

There has been gathering momentum over the last 10 years in the study of group behavior in multimodal multiparty interactions. While many works in the computer science community focus on the analysis of individual or dyadic interactions, we believe that the study of groups adds an additional layer of complexity with respect to how humans cooperate and what outcomes can be achieved in these settings. Moreover, the development of technologies that can help to interpret and enhance group behaviours dynamically is still an emerging field. Social theories that accompany the study of groups dynamics are in their infancy and there is a need for more interdisciplinary dialogue between computer scientists and social scientists on this topic. This workshop has been organised to facilitate those discussions and strengthen the bonds between these overlapping research communities
