A task-based Digital Work Environment (DWE) was designed and developed at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore to support the Division of Information Studies (DIS) Masters students’ information requirements for their dissertation work. This paper traces the evaluation studies of DWE to gauge the usefulness and effectiveness of its three different approaches to information organisation - alphabetical, subject category and task-based. The findings show that the task-based approach is most effective in terms of the speed of accessing information resources.
