Our aim in this paper is to demonstrate the contexts and conditions for flexible learning paths that can be tailored to meet individual needs. The concept of this kind of specialised path is to enable learners to individualise the learning process and to adjust it to their personal needs. We will outline the background and pro- vide examples to explain the concept of learning stations which we use in our four courses: Online Marketing, CRM Systems, Business Communications and Event Marketing. This idea of “freely” combining subject matter naturally leads to the question of multi-applicability for the learning blocks in various educational contexts. The answers to this question are interesting not only in terms of the feasibility of learning paths from a content and didactic point of view, but also with regard to the economic viability of E-Learning or Blended Learning Systems, which ultimately require technical implementation. In addition we will present some first thoughts on the design of a prototype “Content Pool”. It would, however, only make sense to develop and implement this within the scope of a follow-up project.

Es soll die Durchführung von Prozessen der öffentlichen Willensbildung, der Entscheidung und der Leistungserstellung in Politik, Staat und Verwaltung modern und kundenorientiert gestalten. Welche Entwicklungen und Herausforderungen mit der Einführung elektronisch gestützter Dienstleistungen und Online-Services seitens der öffentlichen Verwaltung verbunden sind, beschreibt dieser Artikel.

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are at the core of these initiatives. City governments appear to play impor-tant roles in making the urban spaces, in which they are embedded, more attractive, more competitive, more livable, and smarter. The authors interviewed City officials in Munich, Germany, and asked for the definitions of “smart city,” which they then compared to Munich’s smart city-related program. While the practitioners’ definitions differed in part from those in the academic literature, the smart city overhaul program at Munich city government had a direct relationship to the practitioners’ understanding of smartness. The authors por-tray and discuss the City of Munich institutional architecture overhaul and its expected and realized benefits, and compare the results to those of an earlier study on the City of Seattle. Both city governments evidently pursue different approaches, the effectiveness of which can more readily be assessed only at a future point of the smart city evolution.

It illustrates the capabilities and characteristics of open data in a conceptual way, comparing hierarchies and heterarchies as coordination models. Moreover, it will seek to show that the Web 2.0 technologies basically follow the same principles and coordination structures as the social models of collaborative knowledge generation and innovation, using open data as a foundation. The point is to make clear to what extent and in what form open data, open standards, and distributed applications are effective as a starting point for ‘distributed knowledge work’.

Research-Based and Genetic Learning in the Study of Administration and Law JF - International Journal of E-Planning Research (IJEPR) N2 - From an E-Government perspective, modern public administrations require a high degree of accessibility, simplified modes of communication, transparent processes, and services that are available electronically. This article addresses the issue of whether, in a Europe-wide comparison, the websites in question offer products and services in a way that is not only intelligible and transparent for users but also efficient and functional. The websites were analysed using the evaluation tool TEDS*MOODLE as part of a student project, whose ratings are presented, to establish research-based and genetic learning as part of the study programme of administration and law. A general finding of the websites of seventeen European capitals applying an E-Government perspective is that the main challenges are in the evaluation categories Adjustment, Further Performance Features – as there are time and cost savings as well as security and safety aspects – and Affection, as indicated by the general satisfaction factor in the user evaluations. The article discusses the transferability of the student results to citizens. Moreover, the article discusses the fitness for purpose of the evaluation tool, and its utility for learning processes, in particular for research-based and genetic learning among students.

JF - Social Indicators Research N2 - The project “Barrier-reduced Machines in Innovative Interaction” (iBaMs) was aimed at enabling employees with intellectual disabilities to extend their range of tasks and to increase their level of responsibility. This goal is to be achieved by an assistive accessible control panel for the operation of complex computer-controlled machines. Therefore, users’ needs and skills as well as design requirements had to be specified in the project. The result is a concept for an assistive control panel whose display interface can be tailor-made to individual needs. Furthermore, indicators for characterizing user profiles and control panels were identified, and a concept was developed of how control panels can be determined and matched to the needs and preferences of individual employees. The complexity in recognizing the requirements of people with intellectual disabilities in a digital world is mapped onto a complex interaction of two sets of indicators—namely social indicators and technical indicators describing control panels. Guidelines on how the results can be evaluated are presented using plausible but fictitious data.
