When random objects were placed in both the virtual and physical rooms,the virtual pairs of participants spent
more time looking directly at each other rather than letting their look wander about the room and taking in the
entire scene.Eyeing one's whole environment and noticing the random objects were associated with increased idea
generation.On platfomms,the screen occupies our interactions.Our look wavers less."Looking away might come
across as rude,"said Brucks,"so we have to look at the screen because that is the defined context of the interaction,
the same way we wouldn't walk to another room while talking to someone in person.
Like most educators,Brucks has primarily taught virtually in the past three years,and she did notice some
benefits of the approach as well.Her students were more likely to take turns speaking and her shyer students spoke
up more often,rid of the anxiety that comes from addressing a large classroom.Brucks found that one solution to
improving virtual idea generation might be to simply turn off the camera,for her students felt "freer"and more
creative when asked to do so.And this may be sound advice for the workplace.
Virtual teamwork can't replace face-to-face teamwork.Idea selection proficiency (is only valuable if
you have strong options to select from,and face-to-face teams are the best means to generate winning options.
Perhaps the workplace will find a compromise-a sweet spot in the middle that balances working from both home
and office.
