    Familiarity, use, and perception of AI-powered tools in higher education
    (ToKnowPress, 2024) Nikoulina, Anya; Caroni, Anna; Dermol, Valerij
    Purpose: AI-powered tools and the use of these tools for teaching and learning have grown exponentially. While there are several studies that examine students' use of AI tools for learning, the results are inconclusive. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of students' familiarity and use of various AI-powered tools for learning, and to gain greater insight into students' perspectives on the benefits and risks of using AI-powered tools in educational settings. Study design/methodology/approach: The study deployed a survey to understand and compare the degree of familiarity and use of AI-powered tools among first and final-year university students. Additionally, several questions focused specifically on students' concerns regarding the use of AI in their studies. Findings: Results indicate that first-year students exhibited a higher level of familiarity with AI tools prior to the start of their studies, while final-year students demonstrated a deeper and more diverse usage of these technologies. Despite concerns raised, the study does not conclusively support negative impacts on student engagement or development of critical thinking skills. While the study indicated that students are well aware of the general limitations of AI use, they did feel not well supported nor informed as to how AI-powered tools can be used within their studies and have expressed the need for greater support and guidance from the university. Originality/value: Research findings have significant implications for educational institutions and policymakers as they strive to leverage AI effectively to enhance the learning experience while addressing concerns and preferences in this rapidly evolving educational environment.

    Crowdwork and employee commitment: new challenges for HRM
    (ToKnowPress, 2018) Konrad, Jonas; Pekruhl, Ulrich; Dermol, Valerij
    Crowdsourcing for paid labour (paid crowdsourcing) will fundamentally change the relationships between actors in the labour market. Employee-employer-relations are mediated by an internet service platform provider, immediate contact between both sides become limited. This does have crucial impacts on form and scope of employee commitment regarding both their jobs and the organization, they work for. Traditional HRM is facing the challenge to either overcome the problems of lacking employee commitment or to organize crowdsourcing in a way that fosters new forms of commitment.

    Exploring cyber security awareness through LEGO serious play part I: the learning experience
    (ToKnowPress, 2020) Asprion, Petra; Schneider, Bettina; Moriggl, Pascal; Grimberg, Frank; Dermol, Valerij
    Lego Serious Play (LSP) is a methodology that helps people brainstorm and discuss complex ideas through storytelling and metaphors. LSP has been successfully applied as a mechanism for creative learning and team building. In this paper, we discuss using LSP to teach core topics of Cyber Security and Resilience (CS&R) in higher education. Initial results suggest that LSP has a positive impact on student learning, while also improving student engagement both, within the course and in their business environment. While the use of LSP discussed here focuses on its implementation in CS&R courses, this highly transferable methodology can be applied across the spectrum of disciplines and for multiple purposes. In addition, it can also be used to facilitate cyber security awareness or risk assessment workshops in various environments.

    Data protection impact assessment guidelines in the context of the general data protection regulation
    (2019) Grütter, Bodo Jeremy; Schneider, Bettina; Dermol, Valerij
    The European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) requires companies to carry out a so-called Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) if the processing of personal data is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. But how can it be determined whether a risk should be considered ‘high’ and thus makes a DPIA necessary? Furthermore, if a DPIA is required, how exactly should this be performed? In response to these questions, various guidelines concerning DPIA have been published. The aim of this paper is to give those affected by the new Data Protection law an insight into three current DPIA guidelines and to support them in implementing a GDPR-compliant impact assessment. To this end, each of the selected guidelines will be described, and evaluated in terms of GDPR compliance and DPIA feasibility, i.e. on the one hand, whether the guideline complies with the relevant GDPR articles, and on the other hand what tools are provided to facilitate the operational execution of a DPIA. The study results in an overall evaluation matrix, which shows that all three guidelines have different strengths and propose differing methods for DPIA implementation.

    Roadmap on Blockchain Transformation for Organizations – Evaluation through Teaching
    (ToKnow Press, 2019) Dettling, Walter; Flück, Lia; Dermol, Valerij
    Even though blockchain technology is currently a widely discussed topic, it is hard to get a straightforward overview or understanding of this topic. For many organizations blockchain causes excitement about the opportunities for innovation but raises also doubt and fear of losing their competitiveness. Most managers have heard of blockchain technology before and feel the pressure to go with the market and implement the technology. However, most organizations do not know how to develop their company towards blockchain. The lack of knowledge includes how to build up knowledge, launch a suitable project, finding a use case that matches the organization, aligning it with their strategy, which kind of blockchain to focus on and how to start a business transformation. As a part of a research project about blockchain teaching and business transformation, a roadmap was developed that aims to support organizations in their transformation towards blockchain technology and in understanding the potentials of this new technology. This artifact was then evaluated through a proof-of-concept by gathering data on relevance and practical applicability of the roadmap. This was done by using the roadmap in a university class environment and an industry questionnaire. With the evaluation of the artifact in a class environment, a current state-of-the-art topic could be taught to students and, additionally, the learning process of the students enabled research contributions to the project results.
