  abstract  = {Educational research on social media has showed that students use it for socialisation, personal communication, and informal learning. Recent studies have argued that students to some degree use social media to carry out formal schoolwork. This article gives an explorative account on how a small sample of Norwegian high school students use social media to self-organise formal schoolwork. This user pattern can be called a "student learning ecology", which is a user perspective on how participating students gain access to learning resources.},

  abstract  = {The Technology Proficiency Self-Assessment (TPSA) questionnaire has been used for 15 years in the USA and other nations as a self-efficacy measure for proficiencies fundamental to effective technology integration in the classroom learning environment. Internal consistency reliabilities for each of the five-item scales have typically ranged from .73 to .88 for preservice or inservice technology-using teachers. Due to changing technologies used in education, researchers sought to renovate partially obsolete items and extend self-efficacy assessment to new areas, such as social media and mobile learning. Analysis of 2014 data gathered on a new, 34 item version of the TPSA indicates that the four established areas of email, World Wide Web (WWW), integrated applications, and teaching with technology continue to form consistent scales with reliabilities ranging from .81 to .93, while the 14 new items gathered to represent emerging technologies and media separate into two scales, each with internal consistency reliabilities greater than .9. The renovated TPSA is deemed to be worthy of continued use in the teaching with technology context.},

  abstract  = {Die M{\"o}glichkeiten sich zu informieren, am Leben der vielen Anderen teilzunehmen ist durch das Internet mit seinen Tweets, Google-Angeboten und sozialen Netzwerken wie Facebook ins Unermessliche gewachsen. Zugleich f{\"u}hlen sich viele Nutzer {\"u}berfordert und meinen, im Meer der Informationen zu ertrinken. So bekennt Frank Schirrmacher in seinem Buch Payback, dass er den geistigen Anforderungen unserer Zeit nicht mehr gewachsen ist. Sein Kopf komme nicht mehr mit. Er sei unkonzentriert, vergesslich und st{\"a}ndig abgelenkt. Das, was vielen zum Problem geworden ist, sehen viele Studierende eher pragmatisch. Der Wissenserwerb in Zeiten von Internet und E-Learning l{\"a}uft an Hochschulen h{\"a}ufig nach der Helene-Hegemann-Methode ab: Zun{\"a}chst machen sich die Studierenden, z.B. im Rahmen einer Studien- oder Hausarbeit, bei Wikipedia „schlau", ein Einstieg ist geschafft. Anschließend wird dieses Wissen mit Google angereichert. Damit ist {\"U}berblickswissen vorhanden. Mit geschickter copy-and-paste-Komposition l{\"a}sst sich daraus schon ein „Werk" erstellen. Der ein oder andere Studierende gibt sich mit diesem Wissenserwerb zufrieden und bricht seinen Lernprozess hier bereits ab. Nun ist zwar am Ende jeder Studierende f{\"u}r seinen Wissenserwerb selbst verantwortlich. Die erkennbar unbefriedigende Situation sollte die Hochschulen aber herausfordern, das Internet in Vorlesungen und Seminaren auszuprobieren und sinnvolle Anwendungen zu entwickeln. Beispiele gibt es durchaus. Unter der Metapher E-Learning hat sich ein umfangreicher Forschungsschwerpunkt an den Universit{\"a}ten entwickelt. Einige Beispiele von vielen: So hat der Osnabr{\"u}cker Informatik-Professor Oliver Vornberger seine Vorlesungen als Video ins Netz gestellt. Per RSS ist es m{\"o}glich, Sequenzen aufs iPod zu laden. Die {\"u}bliche Dozentenangst, dann w{\"u}rden sie ja vor leeren B{\"a}nken sitzen, scheint unbegr{\"u}ndet. Sie werden von den Studierenden vor allem zur Pr{\"u}fungsvorbereitung genutzt. Wie ist das Internet, das f{\"u}r die junge Generation zu einem alles andere verdr{\"a}ngenden Universalmedium geworden ist, didaktisch in die Hochschullehre einzubinden? Wie also ist konkret mit diesen Herausforderungen umzugehen? Dies soll uns im Folgenden besch{\"a}ftigen.},

We demonstrate also how to introduce logarithm independently of mathematical formalism using a conceptual model for reducing a problem size by at least half. It is quite surprising that the idea, which leads to logarithm, is present in Euclid's algorithm described almost 2000 years before John Napier invented logarithm.},

  abstract  = {Nowadays, model-driven engineering (MDE) promises to ease software development by decreasing the inherent complexity of classical software development. In order to deliver on this promise, MDE increases the level of abstraction and automation, through a consideration of domain-specific models (DSMs) and model operations (e.g. model transformations or code generations). DSMs conform to domain-specific modeling languages (DSMLs), which increase the level of abstraction, and model operations are first-class entities of software development because they increase the level of automation. Nevertheless, MDE has to deal with at least two new dimensions of complexity, which are basically caused by the increased linguistic and technological heterogeneity. The first dimension of complexity is setting up an MDE environment, an activity comprised of the implementation or selection of DSMLs and model operations. Setting up an MDE environment is both time-consuming and error-prone because of the implementation or adaptation of model operations. The second dimension of complexity is concerned with applying MDE for actual software development. Applying MDE is challenging because a collection of DSMs, which conform to potentially heterogeneous DSMLs, are required to completely specify a complex software system. A single DSML can only be used to describe a specific aspect of a software system at a certain level of abstraction and from a certain perspective. Additionally, DSMs are usually not independent but instead have inherent interdependencies, reflecting (partial) similar aspects of a software system at different levels of abstraction or from different perspectives. A subset of these dependencies are applications of various model operations, which are necessary to keep the degree of automation high. This becomes even worse when addressing the first dimension of complexity. Due to continuous changes, all kinds of dependencies, including the applications of model operations, must also be managed continuously. This comprises maintaining the existence of these dependencies and the appropriate (re-)application of model operations. The contribution of this thesis is an approach that combines traceability and model management to address the aforementioned challenges of configuring and applying MDE for software development. The approach is considered as a traceability approach because it supports capturing and automatically maintaining dependencies between DSMs. The approach is considered as a model management approach because it supports managing the automated (re-)application of heterogeneous model operations. In addition, the approach is considered as a comprehensive model management. Since the decomposition of model operations is encouraged to alleviate the first dimension of complexity, the subsequent composition of model operations is required to counteract their fragmentation. A significant portion of this thesis concerns itself with providing a method for the specification of decoupled yet still highly cohesive complex compositions of heterogeneous model operations. The approach supports two different kinds of compositions - data-flow compositions and context compositions. Data-flow composition is used to define a network of heterogeneous model operations coupled by sharing input and output DSMs alone. Context composition is related to a concept used in declarative model transformation approaches to compose individual model transformation rules (units) at any level of detail. In this thesis, context composition provides the ability to use a collection of dependencies as context for the composition of other dependencies, including model operations. In addition, the actual implementation of model operations, which are going to be composed, do not need to implement any composition concerns. The approach is realized by means of a formalism called an executable and dynamic hierarchical megamodel, based on the original idea of megamodels. This formalism supports specifying compositions of dependencies (traceability and model operations). On top of this formalism, traceability is realized by means of a localization concept, and model management by means of an execution concept.},
