Das Thema Künstliche Intelligenz (im Folgenden: KI) beschäftigt Verlage für Bildungsmedien auf mehreren Ebenen. Ganz allgemein lässt sich das Thema als eines von vielen, die zu einem datengetriebenen Unternehmen gehören, verorten. In diesem Artikel werden zwei Aspekte von KI, die für die Gestaltung von Bildungsmedien relevant sind, erörtert. Dies ist zum einen der Bereich der redaktionellen Inhalte-Erstellung und zum anderen die Konzeptionierung und Entwicklung adaptiver Lernszenarien. KI lässt sich aus Sicht der Verfahren in zwei Bereiche unterteilen: regelbasierte und datenbasierte KI. Diese Verfahren finden bei der Gestaltung von adaptiven Lernszenarien ihre Anwendung. Dabei kommen verschiedene Modelle der Informationsverarbeitung zum Einsatz: das Lernenden-, das Domänen- und das tutorielle Modell. The topic of artificial intelligence (hereinafter referred to as AI) occupies educational publishers on several levels. In general, the topic can be seen as one of many which belong to a data-driven company. This article discusses two aspects of AI that are relevant to the design of educational media. This is on the one hand the area of editorial content creation and on the other hand the conception and development of adaptive learning scenarios. From the point of view of the procedures of educational media, AI can be divided into two areas: rule-based and data-based AI. The procedures are used in the design of adaptive learning scenarios. Different models of information processing are used: the learner model, the domain model and the tutorial model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The initiative to make the scholarly literature, whose production is in most cases financed by the public hand, freely available to the general public, was started by the Budapest and Berlin Declarations (2002 and 2003). It was widely appreciated and resulted in the development of a robust infrastructure for the recording, distribution and archiving of this type of publicaton. In recent years, however, this institutionalisation proved itself more successful than the call for participation from the actual scientific community. The main players nowadays are libraries, university managment and agencies for research funding. This outcome has disappointed the initial promotors of the initiative, but one of the reasons is precisely their own approach. It disregards, as one observes in hindsight, the existing sozio-economical infrastructure of scientific publishing and the associated interests of working scientists. The impulse has, therefore, made quite an impact in the realm of scholarly publications, but paradoxically in favor of those powerful publishing houses against it was originally directed.

The objective of the OSCOSS research project on "Opening Scholarly Communication in the Social Sciences" is to build a coherent collaboration environment that facilitates scholarly communication workflows of social scientists in the roles of authors, reviewers, editors and readers. This paper presents the implementation of the core of this environment: the integration of the Fidus Writer academic word processor with the Open Journal Systems (OJS) submission and review management system.

The declaration and positions on Open Access in the early 2000s spread a mood of upheaval, euphoria, and idealism, a revolution of scientific publishing was regularly predicted. The expectations for Open Access were obvious and clear: scientists wanted to share their own articles immediately with other scientist (and they also wanted to have easy full text access to the texts of their colleagues), librarians needed a remedy for exploding journal prices, the scientific institutions wanted funded research to be efficiently and freely disseminated. Only the position of the commercial publishers to Open Access was predominantly hesitant or even disapproving. This contribution attempts to draw a balance on Open Access 15 years after the Budapest Open Access Initiative meeting in 2001. 2016 it must be noted that the hopes of Open Access advocates for a revolution will be disappointed. On the contrary, today the development of Open Access seems to be largely driven by the commercial publishers, which were barely mentioned in the early Open Access scenarios. Although there non-commercial Open Access in scientific self-administration exists, today the actors in scientific publishing are still the same as in 2001, and the already known concentration effects on the publishing market continue.
