Digitalisierung von (geistes)wissenschaftlichen Arbeitspraktiken im Alltag: Entwicklung und Einführung eines Werkzeugs zur digitalen Annotation

Abstract

The article focuses on the changes in practices of scientific work, as a consequence of digitisation. Annotations and the interdisciplinary development of a digital annotation tool serve as an example, running parallel to the question of whether staff of the Georg Eckert Institute for International Textbook Research - Member of the Leibniz Institute -  consider it to be profitable. A survey was conducted to test the acceptance of such a tool. The results of this were that personal information and knowledge management is changing as a result of digitisation. Users are already working both via analogue and digital spheres, especially with classic office tools such as Microsoft Office, and are clearly open to digital tools. Furthermore, it is clear that a dialogue must be sought to gain acceptance, and that the digital should be modelled on the analogue, especially in the area of visualisation.
