    Abstract
    K3, work in progress, is an acronym for Kollaboration (collaboration), Kommunikation (communication), and Kompetenz (competence). K3 provides a platform in the context of knowledge management to support collaborative knowledge production in learning environments. The underlying hypothesis states that collaborative discourse conciliates information as well as communication competence in learning contexts. The collaborative, communicative paradigm of K3 is implemented by asynchronous communication tools as a means of constructivist learning methodology. In this paper we will describe a K3 course. The lecture was organized and carried out at two places in two different countries (Germany and Switzerland) with students from different universities in the context of Library and Information Science. The paper informs about the management of the lecture and about the problems we had to run the lecture at two places. The circumstances in coordinating the presentations, the exercises, the examinations and evaluation, and the time schedule are presented. The conclusions of the lecturers and the results of a questionnaire for the students are explained in detail.
    Content
    K3 helps organizing a course with constructivist and instructional elements. It is used to run complex discussions and group work as presenting knowledge in a controlled environment. Besides basic functionalities like acting as a file server to exchange teaching materials and providing asynchronous communication, K3 offers: 1. A sophisticated system of intellectual, semi-automatic and automatic performance parameters as a means of permanent feedback and transparent gratification. 2. A MyK3 version to personalize the system for each user, be it a student or a lecturer. 3. Extended retrieval facilities. 4. A report generator to assemble a single student's or a group's contributions. 5. An elaborated administrator sub-system to enable the lecturers to organize their courses. 6. A visualization component, K3VIS to get a graphical, semistructured overview about a discourse. 7. A role system (moderator, presenter, researcher, and summarizer) to classify the responsibilities of students during a group work. 8. Typed discourse objects to organize and structure a discourse and allow ease of proximate actions, like retrieval and navigation.

    Abstract
    Die K3-Architektur zur technischen Entwicklung und Realisierung des netzbasierten Wissensmanagement in der Lehre wird dargestellt. Das aktuelle K3-System besteht aus drei zentralen Komponenten; K3Forum (Diskurs), K3Vis (Visualisierung) und K3Wiki (kollaborative Textproduktion, z. B. für Zusammenfassungen). K3 verwendet Open-Source-Software unter der LGPL Lizenz.. Dadurch können freie Verwendung, überschaubare Entwicklungskosten und Nachhaltigkeit garantiert und die Unabhängigkeit von kommerziellen Software-Anbietern gesichert werden. Dank des komponentenbasierten Entwicklungskonzepts kann K3 flexibel und robust laufend weiterentwickelt werden, ohne die Stabilität der bestehenden Funktionalitäten zu beeinträchtigen. Der Artikel dokumentiert exemplarisch die Hauptkomponenten und Funktionen von K3, so dass nachfolgende Entwickler leicht eine Übersicht über das K3-System gewinnen können. Die Anforderungen an den Transfer des Systems in Umgebungen außerhalb von Konstanz werden beschrieben.

    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
    In the process of transition towards Knowledge Society, development of educated citizens is of prime concern Ihr all nations of the world, The problem becomes acute for those with sizeable population with diversified culture, background and economic condition. Methodologies for provision of education are undergoing a sea change and are in a transitory phase of development with technology acting as an agent for change. It is in this context that a new method of education - Open and Distance Education (ODE) plays a vital role. The various methods followed in ODE system and the initiatives taken in India are discussed here, with particular reference to the role of the Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU).

    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
    Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to review recent developments in educational informatics relating to the provision by information systems of pedagogical support to web-based learners, and to propose further investigation of the feasibility and potential value of web-based "conversational" information systems to complement adaptive hypermedia and information retrieval systems. Design/methodology/approach - The potential of Pask's conversation theory is considered as a potentially useful framework for the development of information systems capable of providing pedagogical support for web-based learners, complementary to that provided by existing computer-assisted learning and adaptive hypermedia systems. The potential role and application of entailment meshes are reviewed in relation to other forms of knowledge representation including classifications, semantic networks, ontologies and representations based on knowledge space theory. Findings - Concludes that conversation theory could be a useful framework to support the development of web-based "conversational" information that would complement aspects of computer-assisted learning, adaptive hypermedia and information retrieval systems. The entailment mesh knowledge representation associated with conversation theory provides the potential for providing particularly rich pedagogical support by virtue of its properties of cyclicity, consistency and connectivity, designed to support deep and enduring levels of understanding. Research limitations/implications - Although based on a considerable body of theoretical and empirical work relating to conversation theory, the paper remains speculative in that the gap is still great between, on the one hand, what has so far been achieved and, on the other, the practical realisation of its potential to enhance web-based learning. Much work remains to be done in terms of exploring the extent to which procedures developed and benefits found in relatively small-scale experimental contexts can effectively be scaled to yield enhanced support for "real world" learning-related information behaviour. Originality/value - The ideas of Pask, discussed in this paper, are capable of guiding the structuring of information according to parameters designed to facilitate deep and enduring understanding via interactive "conversational" engagement between the conceptual structures of information source authors and learners. If one can scale Pask's work to "real world" learning-related information behaviour, one can increase the range of web-based information systems and services capable of providing pedagogical support to web-based learners.

    Abstract
    Textbooks are more available in electronic format now than in the past. Because textbooks are typically large, the end user needs effective tools to rapidly access information encapsulated in textbooks stored in digital libraries. Statistical similarity-based links among hypertextbooks are a means to provide those tools. In this paper, the design and the implementation of a tool that generates networks of links within and across hypertextbooks through a completely automatic and unsupervised procedure is described. The design is based an statistical techniques. The overall methodology is presented together with the results of a case study reached through a working prototype that shows that connecting hyper-textbooks is an efficient way to provide an effective retrieval capability.

    Abstract
    The article provides an in-depth analysis of previous literature that led to the understanding of the four interactive components of e learning and how we can utilize these components to maximize the positive and minimize the negative results of e learning. The four interactive dimensions of e learning are the following three originally described in Moore's editorial ([1989]): (1) interaction with the content, (2) interaction with the instructor, (3) interaction with the students, and an additional new fourth dimension, interaction with the system, which considered all of the new computer technology since his article. In our viewpoint we will highlight the impact that this fourth technological interactive dimension has on the results of e learning. The question then is not to e or not to e, since e learning is already an essential factor of our contemporary learning environment. The question is how to e, based on the understanding of the four interactive components of e learning, and the understanding that these four types of interactions are different from the ones we are accustomed to in the traditional learning environment.

    Abstract
    This article discusses the rapidly emerging field of computer-based assessment for adaptive content in e-learning (National Research Council, 2001), which we call differentiated e-learning. In e-learning products, a variety of assessment approaches are being used for such diverse purposes as adaptive delivery of content, individualizing learning materials, dynamic feedback, cognitive diagnosis, score reporting, and course placement (Gifford, 2001). A recent paper at the General Teaching Council Conference in London, England, on teaching, learning, and accountability described assessment for personalized learning through e-learning products as a quiet revolution taking place in education (Hopkins, 2004). In our study, we examine approaches for the use of assessment evidence in e-learning in four case studies. The products in the case studies were selected for exhibiting at least one exemplary aspect regarding assessment and measurement. The principles of the Berkeley Evaluation & Assessment Research Center Assessment System (Wilson & Sloane, 2000) are used as a framework of analysis for these products with respect to key measurement principles.

    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
    To arrive at relevant and reliable conclusions concerning the usability of a hypermedia educational e-book, developers have to apply a well-defined evaluation procedure as well as a set of clear, concrete and measurable quality criteria. Evaluating an educational tool involves not only testing the user interface but also the didactic method, the instructional materials and the interaction mechanisms to prove whether or not they help users reach their goals for learning. This article presents a number of evaluation criteria for hypermedia educational e-books and describes how they are embedded into an evaluation procedure. This work is chiefly aimed at helping education developers evaluate their systems, as well as to provide them with guidance for addressing educational requirements during the design process. In recent years, more and more educational e-books are being created, whether by academics trying to keep pace with the advanced requirements of the virtual university or by publishers seeking to meet the increasing demand for educational resources that can be accessed anywhere and anytime, and that include multimedia information, hypertext links and powerful search and annotating mechanisms. To develop a useful educational e-book many things have to be considered, such as the reading patterns of users, accessibility for different types of users and computer platforms, copyright and legal issues, development of new business models and so on. Addressing usability is very important since e-books are interactive systems and, consequently, have to be designed with the needs of their users in mind. Evaluating usability involves analyzing whether systems are effective, efficient and secure for use; easy to learn and remember; and have a good utility. Any interactive system, as e-books are, has to be assessed to determine if it is really usable as well as useful. Such an evaluation is not only concerned with assessing the user interface but is also aimed at analyzing whether the system can be used in an efficient way to meet the needs of its users - who in the case of educational e-books are learners and teachers. Evaluation provides the opportunity to gather valuable information about design decisions. However, to be successful the evaluation has to be carefully planned and prepared so developers collect appropriate and reliable data from which to draw relevant conclusions.

    Abstract
    Currently, adaptive educational hypermedia systems (AEHSs) are described using nonuniform methods, depending on the specific view of the system, the application, or other parameters. There is no common language for expressing the functionality of AEHSs, hence these systems are difficult to compare and analyze. In this paper we investigate how a logical description can be employed to characterize adaptive educational hypermedia. We propose a definition of AEHSs based on first-order logic, characterize some AEHSs resulting from this formalism, and discuss the applicability of this approach.

    Abstract
    Informationskompetenz wird immer mehr als eine wichtige und notwendige Schlüsselqualifikation für Studium, Forschung und Beruf anerkannt. Einen Informationsbedarf erkennen und benennen, dazu eine Suchstrategie entwickeln und geeignete Informationsquellen identifizieren und adäquat nutzen, anschließend die Informationen beschaffen, evaluieren und so weiterverarbeiten, dass die ursprüngliche Fragestellung effizient gelöst wird, sind Fähigkeiten, die nach der Definition der ACRL (Association of College and Research Libraries der USA) ein informationskompetenter Studierender für ein effizientes Studium beherrschen sollte. Nicht nur die SteFi-Studie der Sozialforschungsstelle Dortmund zeigt hier Defizite auf, auch Bibliothekaren wird immer mehr bewusst, dass im Bereich Informationskompetenz ein immens großer Schulungsbedarf besteht. Zudem zeigt ein Blick ins vor allem angelsächsische Ausland, welch hoher Stellenwert der Informationskompetenz an sich und dem Engagement der Bibliotheken als Teaching Libraries eingeräumt wird, und das schon über Jahre hinweg. Aus diesen Gründen beschloss die Bibliothek der Universität Konstanz im Jahre 2002, sich im Schulungsbereich stärker zu engagieren. Mit dem bestehenden Schulungsangebot (neben Erstsemesterführungen vor allem 90-minütige Veranstaltungen zum Online-Katalog und einzelnen (Fach)-Datenbanken) waren alle Beteiligten unzufrieden, sowohl was den zeitlichen Umfang und die damit vermittelten Inhalte als auch was die Resonanz betraf. Zeitgleich bot sich durch die rasche Einführung der neuen gestuften Studiengänge Bachelor und Master, die neben fachlichen Veranstaltungen teilweise auch explizit den Erwerb so genannter Schlüsselqualifikationen oder berufsqualifizierender Kompetenzen vorsehen, an der Universität Konstanz die Chance, Informationskompetenz als eine solche Schlüsselqualifikation in die Studienpläne zu integrieren und damit als Bibliothek für Kurse in diesem Bereich auch Punkte für das ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) vergeben zu können. Die Kooperation mit den Fachbereichen lief insgesamt sehr gut, so dass bereits im Wintersemester 2003/2004 die ersten Informationskompetenzkurse im gerade fertig gestellten neuen Schulungsraum der Bibliothek stattfinden konnten.
