The recent Covid-19 pandemic created an unprecedented transition to distributed design team collaboration in education and industry, and with the sudden change in working environments, researchers must consider novel risks introduced to the design process. This research established that student perception of risk differs through personal experience and the impact of risks are greater when working online. Recommendations are made on how these risks could be mitigated further to allow the successful implantation of distributed design through computed-supported environment in education.
