Description
Ever since digital technologies became widespread, the increasing capacities of storing, exchanging and sharing of information have given rise to optimistic scenarios of an egalitarian information society as well as to pessimistic views of a technocratic surveillance society. Educationalists have pointed out both chances for opening up and enhancing education and also tendencies of stupefaction, problematic power relations, or memory decline. Philosophers have eulogized or censored superficiality, social scientists have focused on networks as agency, the IT industry has made immediate availability a paradigm of development. Questions of archiving have often been overlooked, addressed within a conservative criticism of new media, or considered as a symptom of the historical disease at last to be left behind. Yet all of these approaches fail to do justice to the contemporary social, political, cultural and educational questions regarding the possibilities of digital archives. In the past few years manifold initiatives aiming at opening up education on various levels using digital communications technologies and Creative Commons licenses as well as massive open online courses (moocs) have been developed. Today, Open Educational Resources (OER) is widely used as an umbrella term for free content creation initiatives, OER Commons, Open Courseware (OCW), OER repositories, OCW search facilities, University OCW initiatives, and related activities. Among others, collections of shared resources such as Connexions, WikiEducator or Curriki have an ever-increasing number of visitors and contributors to the site. Just recently, an effort has been made with a view to mapping the landscape of institutional OER initiatives by the UNESCO/Commonwealth of Learning (COL) Chair. Against this background, this publication focuses on ongoing dynamics and transformational processes at the interfaces of OER initiatives and issues of digital archiving. Der interdisziplinär ausgerichtete Sammelband befasst sich mit gegenwärtigen Dynamiken sowie transformativen Prozessen an der Schnittstelle sogenannter Freier Bildungsmedien und Fragen der digitalen Archivierung. Aktuell werden unter den Labels Open Education (OE) und Open Educational Resources (OER) mediengestützte Offenheit und Öffentlichkeit von Bildung diskutiert. Darüber hinaus hat die Digitalisierung den Diskurs um das Archiv als geläufigen Stellvertreter für das kulturelle Gedächtnis, für die Bibliothek und für das Museum in unterschiedlichen Bereichen und auf diversen Ebenen neu belebt. Geht es hierbei um reine Technologisierungsvorhaben? Handelt es sich um Begleiterscheinungen der Digitalisierung von Wissen und Kommunikation? Oder manifestieren sich hier zeitgemäße Zukunftsmodelle des Wissensmanagements? Vielleicht sind es auch einfach clevere Geschäftsideen im Rahmen der Ökonomisierung aller Lebensbereiche? Das Anliegen des Bandes ist es einen Überblick über aktuelle Entwicklungen zu geben und in theoretischen und anwendungsorientierten Beiträgen vor diesem Hintergrund Chancen und Probleme der vielgestaltigen Landschaft mediengestützter Bildungsinitiativen zu reflektieren.
