Digitalisierung wird weithin als allgegenwärtig betrachtet. So vergeht kaum ein Tag, an dem nicht über Digitalisierung und ihre Auswirkungen für die Gesellschaft in all ihren Bereichen gesprochen und/oder geschrieben wird. Diese Entwicklung betrifft auch die Hochschule. Eines fällt aber auf: Studierende als spezifische Gruppe werden in diesen Diskussionen selten in den Blick genommen. Genau diesen Versuch unternimmt der vorliegende Band: Ausgehend von einem Projekt in der Förderlinie "Digitale Hochschulbildung" des BMBF wird ein umfassendes Bild studentischer Medienwelten in der Universität der Gegenwart gezeichnet. Dabei leitet die übergeordnete Fragestellung, wie Studierende ihrem Studium mit (digitalen) Medien einen eigenen Sinn verleihen, die Beiträge in diesem Buch. Fokussiert werden insbesondere Sinnzusammenhänge zwischen Studium und (digitalen) Medien.

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.
