Abstract
In this research, we explored collaborative behavioral patterns by focusing on undergraduate students' team work strategies when they write their research proposals. A three-hour session with the collaborative search system was conducted. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used to show that, teams could adopt four strategies in three stages, and labor division was the most popular one. Our results confirm that the keys for successful team work strategies include a team leader, a clear division of labor and active communications among team members. The bookmark, snip and editor functions of the collaborative search system can support collaborative work. Other functions like recommend and annotate need to be improved. Further studies are needed to fully understand these results in other scenarios.
