Vita
Michael Veith, M.A., studierte Englische Sprachwissenschaft, Psychologie und Informatik an der Universität Siegen. In seiner Magisterarbeit beschäftigte er sich insbesondere mit der Frage der gesellschaftlichen Integration ethnischer Minderheiten mit Hilfe computer-unterstützter kooperativer, misch-kultureller sowie inter-generationaler (durch Einbindung der Eltern) Projektarbeit im (grund-)schulischen Kontext. Seit März 2006 arbeitet er als wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Lehrstuhl für Wirtschaftsinformatik und Neue Medien. Dort befasst er sich u.a. mit Fragestellungen der gesellschaftlichen und organisatorischen Veränderungen, die mit der Nutzung von moderner Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologie einhergehen. Michael Veith betreut – empirisch wie auch aktiv – den interkulturellen Computerclub come_IN in Bonn und ist – auf diesen Arbeiten aufbauend – im Teilprojekt B10 des Kulturwissenschaftlichen Forschungskollegs SFB/FK 615 Medienumbrüche beschäftigt. Ferner untersucht er im Projekt WIN (Wissensmanagement in Informationsnetzwerken) die Möglichkeiten und Potenziale des Einsatzes von Wissensmanagementsystemen und –strategien in einem bedeutenden europäischen Industrieverband.

[BibTeX] [Abstract]In a long term case study, we have analyzed learning practices in\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$na German Computer Club House (CCH) setting. Observing children and\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$ntheir parents creating artifacts with construction kits, we found\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nthat they had problems in maintaining the flow of their project work\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nover time. Therefore, we develop concepts for a project management\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$ntool which support CCH settings to scaffold their growing information\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nspace in terms of artifact re-use and expertise development over\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$ntime. Scaffolding in this regard is understood to support collaborative\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nprocesses in communities of end-user development.

[BibTeX] [Abstract]Former immigrant workers from Turkey have settled down in Germany.\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nThey have established communities within German cities.

Differences in access\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nand appropriation of computer technology may amplify the gap between\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nthe German Turkish minority and the mainstream society. We have tackled\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nthis problem by creating an intercultural computer club. This paper\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$npresents results from this action research project in which we engaged\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nchildren of an elementary school and their parents. We conclude that\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nthe application of ICT in the club has to be analyzed carefully with\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nregard to the differing needs of its members. When applying ICT in\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$norder to produce artifacts in cross-cultural project teams, specific\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nroles emerge, which are mainly defined by sub-group affiliation.\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nSince Turkish women face serious challenges in finding their socio-cultural\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$nidentity, we have extended the club’s concept by adding a women’s\${\textbackslash}textbackslashbackslash\$ngroup.

[BibTeX] [Abstract]The integration of immigrants is a big challenge for western societies. In this paper we describe how to bridge between ethnically defined communities by means of computer-supported project work. Our approach is grounded in socio-cultural theories of learning, especially Community of Practice (CoP). To evaluate our approach, we have built up a computer club in a multi cultural neighbourhood of the city of Bonn. Parents and children of mainly German and Turkish origin work jointly to create multimedia artefacts. These artefacts represent aspects of the neighbourhood’s recent history. The paper describes the project and its theoretical background. We also provide empirical findings to evaluate our approach.
