- Abstract
- Das Buch verdeutlicht das mit einem Angelbeispiel: In einem Teich gibt es zwei Arten Fische, die begehrten Leckerellen und die ungenießbaren Ekelitzen. Um die Wirksamkeit eines Angelköders für Leckerellen zu testen, hängt man ihn ins Wasser und zählt, wie viele Fische jeder Art anbeißen. Weiß man dann, ob und wie sehr die Leckerellen den Köder mögen? Beileibe nicht. Es kommt darauf an, wie viele Fische der einen und der anderen Art überhaupt im Teich sind. Möglicherweise schwimmt dort gerade keine einzige Leckerelle, also beißt auch keine an; man angelte dann nur Ekelitzen, die den - vielleicht für Leckerellen hervorragenden - Köder nur in der Not fressen. Welchen Wert hat also die reine Zählmethode, um eine Aussage über die Qualität des Köders zu bekommen? Auf medizinische Studien übertragen: Wie aussagefähig ist ein Studienergebnis, wenn Therapie-Köder ausgelegt werden, ohne zu wissen, wie viele IdeenFische überhaupt im Forschungsmilieu schwimmen? Eine weitere Schwierigkeit kommt hinzu: Die Wahrscheinlichkeit von guten Ideen für neue Therapien ist nicht bekannt. Man könnte sie höchstens subjektiv schätzen (Vorschlag der Autoren: zwei Prozent). Weil sie also fast nicht quantifizierbar ist, darf sie, so argumentieren die Statistiker, bei der Bewertung wissenschaftlicher Ergebnisse auch nicht veranschlagt werden. Denn Subjektivität soll in der Forschung möglichst ausgeschlossen bleiben. Folglich wird der Faktor IdeenWahrscheinlichkeit ganz aus der Fragestellung und der statistischen Auswertung ausgeklammert. Das Problem existiert also offiziell gar nicht, obwohl es den Fachleuten bekannt ist. Das Buch bietet vergnüglichen Lesestoff als Verpackung für wissenschaftskritischen Zündstoff: Die Autoren weisen nach, dass randomisierte Studien überflüssig oder sogar schädlich sind. Sie zeigen, dass viele der "wissenschaftlich nachgewiesen besseren Therapien" nicht besser und vielfach sogar schlechter sind als das, was sie verbessern sollen. Alles, was man wissen muss: Ein texanischer Universitätsrechner gewährt Zutritt zu den heiligen Hallen der Online-Bildung. Der Online-Boom der 1990er Jahre beförderte auch akademische Bildungsinhalte ins Netz. Das große Projekt einer virtuellen Universität hat sich zwar bislang in finanziellen, technischen und konzeptionellen Unzulänglichkeiten verfangen. Aber die (reale) Universität von Texas in Austin bietet seit 1994 einen Wegweiser zu Online-Vorlesungen aus aller Welt, den sie ständig aktualisiert: den "Welthörsaal" (http:// wnt.cc.utexas.edu/~wlh). In über neunzig natur- und geisteswissenschaftlichen Fächern, von Astronomie über Anthropologie, Geschichte und Religion bis hin zur Zoologie, können Internet-Surfer weit reichende Studien treiben. Ausdauer ist gefragt: So mancher Mausklick fördert nicht viel mehr als Vorlesungspläne zu Tage oder fordert kostenpflichtige Registrierungen. Häufig dienen die Seiten auch nur als Ergänzung zu einer Präsenzvorlesung. Wer trotzdem dranbleibt, den belohnt die Suchmaschine der World Lecture Hall mit faszinierenden Links auf umfassende Text- und Bildersammlungen, abgerundet mit Filmen, Sprachsequenzen und interaktiven Anwendungen. Eine Online-Einführung in die Chemie bietet zum Beispiel www.scidiv.bcc.ctc.edu/ wv/101-online.html. Fachlich anspruchsvoll und dennoch verständlich ist auch http://simons.hec.utah.edu/ TheoryPage/index.html: Jack Simons, theoretischer Chemiker aus Utah, leitet die rasant wachsende Bedeutung seines Fachgebiets aus dessen Funktion als Schnittstelle zwischen Chemie, Mathematik, Physik und Computerwissenschaften ab. Bunt und bewegt geht es in der "Chemist's Art Gallery" (www.csc.fi/them/gallery.phtml) zu, die auch die Links zur Molekül-"Kunst" auf dieser Seite lieferte. Ein reiches Sortiment interaktiver Animationen etwa zur Molekulardynamik stellt einige Ansprüche an die heimische Hardware.
Ähnlich spektakulär und informativ präsentieren sich auch die Astronomen: Ihr schier unerschöpflicher Fundus von Bildern und Filmen macht das "elektronische Universum" auf http://zebu.uoregon.edu ebenso einen Klick wert wie die Geschichte von "Geburt und Tod der Sterne" auf demselben Server (http://zebu.uoregon.edu/~js/astl22). Schnell gerät der Wissensdurstige auf reizvolle Seitenpfade, denn viele Vorlesungen glänzen mit sorgfältig zusammengestellten Linklisten. Die führen zum Beispiel zu den "Chemischen Briefen" Justus von Liebigs, wie sie im 19. Jahrhundert zunächst als Wissenschaftskolumne in der Augsburger Allgemeinen Zeitung erschienen (www.liebig-museum.de/chbriefe/homepage.htm). Selbst die Alchemie - neunzig ansprechend präsentierte Megabyte auf www.alchemywebsite. com - verleitet zum Verweilen. Historisches ist, weil nicht stets aktualisierungsbedürftig, ohnehin beliebt im Netz. So wartet etwa die Universität Groningen (Niederlande) mit einem voluminösen Hypertext auf, praktisch ein komplettes Lehrbuch der amerikanischen Geschichte mit Texten, Essays und Präsidentenbiografien (http://odur.let.rug.nl/usanew). Noch weiter zurück in die Vergangenheit reicht eine Anthropologen-Website über den Ursprung des Menschen (www.geocities.com/Athens/Acropolis/5579/TA.html). Verspieltere Naturen werden dort zuerst fossile Schädel zuzuordnen versuchen ("Name That Skull") oder einem Anthropologiestudenten beim Wurf des Atlatl zusehen. Dieser frühe Wurfspeer machte schon den Mammuts zu schaffen und drang noch vor wenigen hundert Jahren durch die eiserne Rüstung spanischer Konquistadoren. Selbst Angewandtes bietet die World Lecture Hall. Etwa die "Geschichte der ökonomischen Denkweise" einschließlich eines 22-Minuten-"Interviews" mit Karl Marx auf www.boisestate.edu/econ/lreynol/web/het.htm. Oder Online-Sprachkurse: Wollof und Xhosa, Suaheli und Sanskrit lehrt http://www.word2word.vorn/courscad.html. Surfen allein fördert die akademische Karriere allerdings nicht unbedingt. Wer of fizielle Online-Zertifikate in Deutschland anstrebt, findet in dem Beitrag "Virtuelle Universität im Selbstversuch" (Spektrum der Wissenschaft 11/ 2001, S. 109) gute Startpunkte für das Studieren im Netz, angefangen bei - na wo wohl? - www.studieren-irre-netz.de."

- Abstract
- With the increasing emphasis on student centered learning, the library at the university of Hull has taken several initiatives towards the creation of an awareness of networked electronic information resources on campus, encouraging their use in support of teaching and research. The 'free' access to Internet using JANET is explained, along with examples of the sort of data that can be browsed, and if required, downloaded. Discusses the use of Internet 'data' in computer based training is discussed, as well as e-mail and other online addresses (url). with some that might be useful to educationalists listed

- Abstract
- The KMODDL (kinematic models for design digital library) is a digital library based on a historical collection of kinematic models made of steel and bronze. The digital library contains four types of learning modules including textual materials, QuickTime virtual reality movies, Java simulations, and stereolithographic files of the physical models. The authors report an evaluation study on the uses of the KMODDL in two undergraduate classes. This research reveals that the users in different classes encountered different usability problems, and reported quantitatively different subjective experiences. Further, the results indicate that depending on the subject area, the two user groups preferred different types of learning modules, resulting in different uses of the available materials and different learning outcomes. These findings are discussed in terms of their implications for future digital library design.

- Abstract
- The author takes on the assertion posed in recent educational articles that technology is driving down book circulation and contributing to the decline of reading-center learning. In his interview with Richard Cochran, Dean of the Ferris State University Library for Information, Technology, and Education, the two discuss the importance of incorporating technology to support all types of learning, and using faculty buy-in to insure that as many media as possible are integrated into the final building design.

- Abstract
- The Internet can be a valuable tool allowing distance learners to access information not available locally. Search engines are the most common means of locating relevant information an the Internet, but to use them efficiently students should be taught the basics of searching and how to evaluate the results. This article briefly reviews how Search engines work, studies comparing Search engines, and criteria useful in evaluating the quality of returned Web pages. Research indicates there are statistical differences in the precision of Search engines, with AltaVista ranking high in several studies. When evaluating the quality of Web pages, standard criteria used in evaluating print resources is appropriate, as well as additional criteria which relate to the Web site itself. Giving distance learners training in how to use Search engines and how to evaluate the results will allow them to access relevant information efficiently while ensuring that it is of adequate quality.

- Abstract
- Describes the work of a task force of librarians, at Illinois University at Chicago, in developing an introductory course on the online searching of the Internet and which was conducted over the University's electronic mail network. The 16 lesson course was distributed via listserv to students, staff, residents, and faculty (some using university facilities and some using equipment at their home or office) in various locations throughout the state. Initially, more than 450 people subscribes. Subscribers received 2 lessons a week for 8 weeks. Lessons were made available via FTP ot gopher after initial distribution. Content included basic information, troubleshooting advice, and exercises for practice. Pre and post tests were conducted via listserv to assess the participants' prior knowledge and subsequent knowledge gain. Describes the development of the online course, discusses the results of pre and post tests, and notes the implications for the library's instructional role of using an online instruction medium

- 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
- The Internet, particularly the Web, is a wonderful free source of information that can vastly improve the array of resources available to library patrons. Unfortunately, not all information is honest and accurate, and some of it is not suitable for certain age groups. Students using the Web for research often come upon unsuitable sites. We can get around this by constructing Web learning environments containing safe sites for students. These learning experiences include WebQuests, Pathfinders, Treasure Hunts, Scavenger Hunts, and Tracks.
