    Abstract
    Mit dem Stichwort E-Learning wird ein breites Spektrum von Lehr- und Lernformen bezeichnet, die in der einen oder anderen Weise durch Rechner unterstützt werden. In vielen dieser Formen spielt der Austausch zwischen den Beteiligten eine wichtige Rolle. Daher werden E-Learning-Umgebungen häufig mit Kommunikationskomponenten wie Chats oder Foren versehen. Neben diesen Kommunikationswegen steht den Studierenden im Allgemeinen noch eine Vielzahl anderer Kommunikationsmittel zur Verfügung. In einer Befragung an der Hochschule Darmstadt (ehemals Fachhochschule) wurde untersucht, welche Kommunikationswege von den Teilnehmern und Teilnehmerinnen eines E-Learning-Kurses genutzt und bevorzugt werden. Ausgangspunkt war dabei die Beobachtung, dass die von der Lernplattform angebotenen Kommunikationsmittel im Vergleich mit anderen Kommunikationswegen nur wenig genutzt wurden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass alle zehn untersuchten Kommunikationswege (vom persönlichen Gespräch über EMail oder Voice-over-IP bis zu den Kommunikationsmitteln der Lernumgebung) für den Austausch zur Online-Lehrveranstaltung genutzt wurden. Die Intensität der Nutzung variierte allerdings stark: So gaben über 90 Prozent der Befragten an, sich durch direkte Gespräche oder E-Mails ausgetauscht zu haben, wogegen nur ca. zehn Prozent die Kommunikationsmittel der E-Learning-Plattform verwendeten. Der Hauptanteil der Kommunikation fand also nicht über die von der Lernplattform angebotenen Werkzeuge statt. Die Studierenden bevorzugten die Kommunikationswege, die sie auch sonst im Alltag benutzen.

    Abstract
    Komplexe Aufgaben und Probleme werden heute üblicherweise im Team bearbeitet und gelöst. Das gilt insbesondere für Softwareprojekte, denn die Entwicklung komplexer Softwaresysteme findet heutzutage meistens arbeitsteilig in - zunehmend räumlich verteilten - Teams statt. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird zum einen ein rollenbasiertes Konzept vorgestellt, das virtuellen Lernteams bei der Zusammenarbeit einen virtuellen Tutor zur Seite stellt, der dem Team im Rahmen von Rollendefiziten adaptierte Hilfestellung bietet und so die Lerneffektivität unterstützt. Zum anderen wird gezeigt, wie das Zusammenspiel zweier spezialisierter Systeme (VitaminL und K3) im Kontext des Blended Learning echte Mehrwerte in E-Learning-Szenarien bringen kann. Die in Benutzertests und einer Lehrveranstaltung ermittelten Evaluierungsergebnisse lassen auf die Tragfähigkeit des rollenbasierten, tutoriellen Konzepts schließen und decken gleichzeitig großes Weiterentwicklungpotenzial auf.

    Abstract
    Der bisherige Einsatz elektronischer Kommunikationsforen in der Lehre hat gezeigt, dass die Motivation zur Teilnahme an kollaborativen Prozessen erst geweckt bzw. verstärkt werden muss. Aus diesem Grund wurde im K3-System ein Gratifikationssystem implementiert, das einerseits Anreize zur aktiven Teilnahme schafft und andererseits bestimmte Schlüsselkompetenzen (hier Informations-, Kommunikations- und Teamkompetenz) bei den Teilnehmern entwickelt und verbessert. Im kollaborativen Wissensmanagementsystem K3 wird dies im Wesentlichen dadurch erreicht, dass die Akteure direktes und indirektes Feedback über die von ihnen erbrachten Leistungen erhalten. Ein Alleinstellungsmerkmal des K3-Gratifikationssystems ist die Feedbackgestaltung mit Hilfe der Visualisierung bestimmter Leistungsmerkmale der teilnehmenden Akteure. In diesem Beitrag wird zunächst ganz allgemein beschrieben, wie das K3-Gratifikationssystem in den kollaborativen Prozess eingebunden ist. Aufbauend auf der Entwicklung spezieller Kennzahlen zur Leistungsbeschreibung der teilnehmenden Akteure wird der Schwerpunkt auf die Darstellung verschiedener Visualisierungsformen dieser Leistungskennzahlen gelegt.

    Abstract
    Developing inter-institutional collaborative agreements for online education offers the potential benefit of increasing participants' access to resources and decreasing costs to institutions. Designing and sustaining models of cooperation to cross institutional boundaries is inherently complex and requires significant commitment. This paper explores the rationale for developing consortia and describes opportunities and challenges that arise in establishing and maintaining agreements to promote quality online education in library and information science (LIS) with peer institutions. Insights are shared based on 'lessons learned' in establishing the Web-based Information Science Education (WISE) consortium. Emphasis is placed on the three key elements of the WISE model of collaboration -- metrics for quality online education, faculty development in online pedagogy, and course share.

    Abstract
    This article endorses the use of Web-based instruction for cataloging education as represented by OCLC's online course, Cataloging Internet Resources Using MARC21 and AACR2. This type of instruction is particularly useful to working catalogers (professional and paraprofessional alike) who cannot spare the time or the expense to attend workshops and seminars in order to receive training in the latest developments in the field. The OCLC course also paves the way for a new standardized program of online cataloging education that will be tailored for working catalogers at all levels of expertise and that will offer specialized, yet convenient, training in a wide variety of formats.

    Abstract
    Purpose - To demonstrate how there is an irreversible momentum towards the adoption of online modes of delivery for library instruction, a process which will have distinctive benefits in the promotion of enhanced levels of information literacy (IL). Design/methodology/approach - The author uses case study and other literature, plus examples from personal professional practice to build an argument. Findings - The momentum towards "cyber-delivery" is inevitable and is driven by a variety of factors, which can be understood as either external or intrinsic to the arena of IL. External factors include the pressure to find the most effective educational approaches to train students to use tools such as Google appropriately (virtual formats are best to deal with virtual challenges); intrinsic factors include the innate suitability of online IL for encouraging independent learning and student-centred education. Research limitations/implications - The research technique consists of a dualistic analysis of dynamic factors driving the digital library movement towards online delivery of IL: this has the potential to be extended to other LIS contexts and tested for robustness and relevance. Practical implications - The paper shows how the LIS practitioner can better understand the relevance of courseware-based models of IL delivery for their user education practice. Originality/value - An insightful summary and coherent analysis of a range of disparate trends in digital library developments helps provide a coherent overview of a fast-developing aspect of the current LIS world.

    Abstract
    Purpose - To evaluate the impact of an interactive online tutorial aiming to improve student citing and referencing practice. Design/methodology/approach - Action research involving three cycles of activity: identification of the most frequently occurring errors made by new undergraduates and postgraduates following instruction in citing and reference practice given in the autumn of 2002; creation of the tutorial for use by the same students in spring 2003, with the quizzes contributing to a portfolio assessment for the undergraduates. Comparison of the students' performance before and after using the tutorial, monitoring through WebCT tracking facilities and usability tests with dyslexic students; adoption of the tutorial as the standard departmental practice, repeating the monitoring activities to compare the results with the previous year. Findings - The results of the first cycle of activity showed a high number of errors, despite the instruction received by students, and the need to start the tutorial at an unanticipated basic level. The students responded positively to the tutorial and some improvements in practice were identified, although the tracking facilities revealed limited use by some undergraduates. Comparison of the errors made in 2003-2004 with those of 2002-2003 showed improvements all round. Research limitations/implications - Some of the improvements may be accounted for by the change of practice part way through the previous academic year and other interventions. Originality/value - The methods used will inform others wishing to carry out and evaluate online learning initiatives. It shows a qualified success in the use of online learning for this purpose.

    Abstract
    Use of citations and Web links embedded in online teaching materials was studied for an undergraduate course. The undergraduate students enrolled in Geographic Information Science for Geography and Regional Development used Web links more often than citations, but clearly did not see them as key to enhancing learning. Current conventions for citing and linking tend to make citations and links invisible. There is some evidence that citations and Web links categorized and highlighted in terms of their importance and function to be served may help student learning in interdisciplinary domains.

    Abstract
    Millions of computer users in the USA have a disability making it difficult to use the Web. The University of Wisconsin System recently required that all System Web pages meet Priority 1 accessibility guidelines as set by the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative (W3C/WAI). Class materials available in online learning management systems should also be accessible to students with disabilities. Four systems, Blackboard 4 and 5, Prometheus 3, and WebCT 3, were assessed against theW3C/WAI guidelines for a numerical statistic of accessibility. Practical accessibility was tested with Lynx, IBM Homepage Reader, and JAWS. Validation was performed with A-Prompt and the W3C/WAI checklist.

    Abstract
    Implementation of recommended design strategies can potentially allow any Web-based learning program to be made accessible to learners who use adaptive technologies. However, one of the greatest barriers to achieving this goal is the lack of authoring tools that support course content developers in adhering to existing accessibility guidelines. In order to ensure universal access, attention must be given to Web pages generated automatically by courseware programs, as well as those uploaded from an external source. Courseware authoring environments could easily include utilities to support developers in making their online resources accessible. This paper will review products recently available on the market using the guidelines published by the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative as a framework for analysis.

    Abstract
    In January 2001, the OCLC Institute released its first online learning course, Cataloging Internet Resources Using MARC21 and AACR2. This research investigated whether participants using this Web-based tool would gain experience equivalent to that of librarians who are already proficient in the skill of cataloging Internet resources. A pre-course/post-course comparison of test results of librarians not experienced with cataloging Internet resources indicated an increase of 35 percent (from 51 to 86 percent) of the correct answers after taking the Web-based course. The group experienced with cataloging Internet resources answered an average of 71 percent of the questions correctly.

    Abstract
    This article describes the development and application of the Cat with Moose courseware in the cataloging curricula at Temasek Polytechnic, Singapore, which offers diploma-level, paraprofessional training in library and information service (LIS). The aim of Cat with Mouse is to provide students with practice in cataloging a range of materials, both print and nonprint, in an online environment. The courseware checks the entries as students progress through the record template and allows them to simultaneously consult windows containing the relevant sources of information. The product is designed to be used as a revision tool and is accessible to students through the Internet. The development team revised a prototype version after feedback was collected by means of a questionnaire. Most students found the courseware useful and that it made revision easier. It is argued that, as an assessment tool, Cat with Mouse is also reliable and valid, and that the distinctive benefits the courseware offers has made the investment in the project worthwhile.
