In or-der to strengthen the positive outcomes of innovations and to reduce or even prevent nega-tive effects, the task of technology assessment is to predict the positive as well as the nega-tive effects and repercussions of innovations as early as possible. However, it must be pre-supposed that first, it must be possible to make to a certain extent reliable predications about the future development and second, that regulatory measurements in order to strengthen the positive outcomes of innovations and to reduce or even prevent negative effects will find their respective addressees. But if one takes, for instance, ubiquitous information and com-munication technology into account it can be demonstrated that those conditions rarely can be met. This is the result of the types of innovation which take place in case of ICT as well as of the so-called Collingridge dilemma. Both factors reduce the reliability of predictions. Furthermore, regulatory measurements often do not find their addressees since the borders of the societal subsystems in which innovation take place are blurring and therefore, these subsystems often cannot be reached with mainstream regulatory approaches like laws.}, language = {de} } @article{SwigonWeber, author = {Swigon, Marzena and Weber, Karsten}, title = {Managing Knowledge and Information by Students}, series = {Journal for Information \& Knowledge Management}, volume = {13}, journal = {Journal for Information \& Knowledge Management}, number = {4}, doi = {10.1142/S0219649214500300}, abstract = {The concept of Personal Knowledge and Information Management (PKIM) is based, among others, on two theories: Personal Information Management (PTM) and Personal Knowledge Management (PKM), which hitherto were both subjects of separate studies.

Some of the empirical studies results in the field of PKIM, started in Poland and recently continued in Germany, are presented. As the research method an unstructured questionnaire with open questions was used. Given the results of the survey as well as taking into account the subject literature, the concepts of PIM, PKM, and Information Literacy (IL) seem to be compatible and connected with each other.

However, certain innovations, which we call bottom up-innovations in this paper, make it quite difficult if not almost impossible to provide information of the kind technology assessment shall produce. After introducing the dichotomy of top down-and bottom up-innovations and bringing these types of innovation in the context of more established notions of innovation on a theoretical level we will use the examples of the quantified self-movement and the idea of participatory sensing to describe bottom up-innovations as they take place in real life. By depicting these examples we will try to identify some of the social consequences of the technology that is used in each of the contexts mentioned above. Finally, we will try to draw some more general conclusions concerning bottom up-innovations and technology assessment and its ability to provide reliable information with regard to possible futures.
