Survey: Open Science In Higher Education
No full textBased on a checklist that was developed during a workshop at OER Camp 2016 and presented as a Science 2.0 conference 2016 poster [1], we conducted an online survey among university teachers representing a sufficient variety of subjects. The survey was online from Feb 6th to March 3 rd 2017. We got 360 responses, whereof 210 were completes, see raw data [2]. The poster is presented at Open Science Conference, 21.-22.3.2017, Berlin.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Organizational learning from the perspective of knowledge maturing activities
No full textThe level of similarity of knowledge work across occupations and industries allows for the design of supportive information and communication technology (ICT) that can be widely used. In a previous ethnographically informed study, we identified activities that can be supported to increase knowledge maturing, conceptualized as goal-oriented learning on a collective level. The aim of this paper is to investigate the current state of support and success of these knowledge maturing activities and to contrast them with their perceived importance, to identify those which have the highest potential for being supported by ICT. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected through telephone interviews with representatives from 126 organizations throughout Europe in a sample stratified according to size, sector, and knowledge-intensity. The activities that appear to be most promising are "reflecting on and refining work practices and processes," "finding people with particular knowledge or expertise," as well as " assessing, verifying, and rating information." Rich empirical material about how these activities are performed and also the issues that emerged and need to be managed were collected. Three clusters of organizations were identified: best performing organizations, people- and awareness-oriented organizations, and hesitant formalists. It was found that a balanced knowledge strategy that leaned toward personalization outperformed a codification strategy
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Feedback und Anreize für die Nutzung von Web 2.0 Diensten
Get PDFIn der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden Feedbackmechanismen, die teils bereits erprobt waren und teils neu entwickelt wurden, auf ihre Wirksamkeit zur Motivationssteigerung in Vorlesungswikis, untersucht. Feedbackmechanismen werden hier als systemneutrales Feedback definiert, welches anhand vergangener Nutzeraktivität automatisch generiert wird und keine subjektive Wertung enthält. Zusätzlich wurden Persönlichkeitsausprägungen und Umgebungsfaktoren untersucht
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Kann zu viel Nähe schaden? – Revisionen zum split-attention effect
No full textFür das Lernen mit multimedialen Inhalten postuliert der split-attention effect, dass Lernergebnisse umso besser ausfallen, je höher die räumliche Nähe zwischen Text- und Bildelementen ist. Dieser Artikel zeigt, dass mittels künstlich erzeugter Verknüpfungen zwischen räumlich entfernten Texten und Bildern (entsprechend den neueren Faktoren der Wahrnehmungsorganisation), mindestens gleich gute Lernergebnisse erzielt werden können. Der negative Effekt hoher räumlicher Distanz zwischen Text und Bild kann somit auch anderweitig umgangen werden. Hierzu wurde eine Online-Untersuchung durchgeführt und die Daten von 869 Probanden bzgl. der Lern- und Transferleistung ausgewertet
