V diplomskem delu so predstavljene elektronske knjige in izdelava le-teh, s poudarkom na praktični uporabi skozi izdelavo poglavja v različnih programskih paketih. Predstavljene so različne možnosti za izdelavo e-knjig ter njihov pomen za izobraževanje skozi izdelavo poglavja o tehnologijah dostopnosti, namenjenih osebam s senzornimi in motoričnimi omejitvami. Opisan je postopek izdelave vsebin oz. gradnikov za e-knjigo, od slik, avdia in videa, do animacij in besedila. Na koncu je podan še praktičen primer izdelave enega poglavja v različnih programih, kjer je poudarek na analizi in primerjavi posameznih programov, njihovih prednosti in slabosti. Diplomsko delo je zaključeno s predlogi za uporabo in nadaljnje delo. This thesis presents electronic books and their production with an emphasis on practical use in the production of chapters in various software packages. Various possibilities for the creation of e-books and their importance for the field of education are presented through creation of a chapter on accessibility technologies for persons with sensorial and physical disabilities. The thesis describes the process of creating content or widgets for e-books, from images, audio and video to animations and text. Finally, there is a practical guide for making one chapter in different programs, where the emphasis is on analysis and comparison of individual programs, both advantages and disadvantages. The diploma thesis is completed with suggestions for use and further work.

Diplomsko delo je razčlenjeno na dva dela. Prvi del je uvod s teoretičnim delom o elektronskemu izobraževanju uporaba e-knjig in spletnih tečajev na splošno ter orodja, s katerimi jih izdelamo. Vključena so tudi učna okolja in njihov prodor v šolski sistem. Pred začetkom drugega dela pa so predstavljena še orodja za izdelavo interaktivnih nalog. V drugem praktičnem delu se diplomsko delo osredotoči na projekt Založbe Mladinska knjiga. Opisan je celotni proces predpriprave in priprave interaktivnih nalog za izobraževalni spletni portal UČIMse. Podrobno se osredotočim na izdelavo in oblikovanje same naloge, ki se na to objavi na portalu. V zaključku drugega dela so zbrani podatki o obiskanosti portala UČIMse. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first part is an introduction to the theoretical work on electronic education the use of e-books and online courses in general, and the tools with which we build them. Learning environments and their penetration into the school system are also included. Before the beginning of the second part, tools for creating interactive tasks are presented. In the second practical part, the thesis focuses on the project of Mladinska knjiga publishing house. The entire process of pre-preparation and preparation of interactive tasks for educational web portal UČIMse is described. I focus in detail on the creation and design of the task itself, which is published on the portal. In conclusion of the second part, data on the attendance of the UČIMse portal are collected.

Naloga obravnava slovensko književnost, ki jo najdemo na spletu, in vprašanje arhiviranja le-te. Vsesplošna prisotnost svetovnega spleta kot izredno dinamičnega medija je pritegnila tudi literaturo, ki se je v njem pričela izražati, ga uporabljati za svoje razširjenje, s tem pa je prišlo tudi do drugačnih načinov sprejemanja literature. V nalogi skušamo premisliti tri glavne pojme s tega področja in jih medsebojno razmejiti: digitalna literatura, digitalizirana literatura in e-knjiga. Slovenska literatura na spletu pa je razvrščena v te tri podskupine. Nato podrobno obravnavamo strategije za arhiviranje oz. hrambo literature, pri čemer prav tako ob čisto konkretnih primerih iz slovenske literature na spletu pogledamo, kako uspešno se te strategije uresničujejo. The thesis deals with Slovenian literature that can be found on the Web and discusses its archiving. The omnipresence of the World Wide Web, which is an incredibly dynamic medium, has also attracted literature, which started developing and circulating on the Web and thus gave rise to different ways of receiving it. The thesis looks into three main notions from the field and tries to delimit them: digital literature, digitised literature and e-book. Slovenian literature on the Web is also classified according to these groups. Moreover, the thesis provides insight into archiving and storing literature and assesses the implementation of those strategies based on concrete examples.

V diplomski nalogi smo predstavili elektronske knjige in preučili uporabnost ter praktičnost naprav za branje elektronskih knjig: tabličnega računalnika, elektronskega bralnika in »pametnega« telefona. Najprej smo predstavili elektronske knjige in njihovo uporabnost. Nato smo predstavili naprave, opisali njihove ključne lastnosti ter jih najprej sami primerjali po teh lastnostih. Nato smo preverili uporabnost in praktičnost naprav s pomočjo ankete, katero so izpolnjevali študentje Filozofske fakultete Univerze v Mariboru. Na podlagi odgovorov smo izvedli analizo, naprave predstavili in jih razvrstili po uporabnosti. In this thesis, we presented electronic books and examine the usefulness and practicality of devices for reading electronic books: Tablet PC, e-reader, and "smart" phone. We first present the electronic books and their usability. Then we present the devices and describe the key features of the devices. First we compared the devices by their features and properties. Then we checked the usefulness and practicality of devices using surveys, which were filled by the students of the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Maribor. Based on the responses, we carried out the analysis presented and classified the devices by their usability.

Digitalno založništvo (znano tudi kot e-založništvo ali elektronsko založništvo) zajema digitalno publikacijo e-knjig, digitalnih revij in razvoj digitalnih knjiž-nic in katalogov. Postalo je nekaj običajnega, da se knjige, revije in časopise distribuira v digitalni obliki. Za izdelavo in oblikovanje naših besedil imamo na voljo veliko spletnih orodij, ki se razlikujejo po namenu glede na vrsto besedila (navadna besedila, znanstveni članki, spletne vsebine). Pregledali smo več samozaložniških platform in orodij ter jih ovrednotili glede na vnaprej definirane lastnosti, ki smo jih izbrali na osnovi potreb sodobnega samozaložnika. Nobena platforma ali orodje ne podpira vseh glavnih funkcionalnosti, se pa platforme/orodja med seboj dopolnjujejo. Distribucijska orodja/platforme večinoma pokrivajo distribucijo in trženje, medtem ko oblikovalna orodja/platforme pokrivajo oblikovanje, sodelovanje in upravljanje z različicami. Digital publishing (also referred to as e-publishing or digital publishing) includes the digital publication of e-books, digital magazines, and the development of digital libraries and catalogs. It has become common to distribute books, magazines, and newspapers to consumers in the digital form. There are a lot of different online tools for creating and formatting our texts, depending on their type (plain text, scientific articles, web content). We have reviewed several self-publishing platform and tools, and evaluated them. No platform or tool supports all the major functions, but they complete each other. Distribution tools/platform generally cover distribution and marketing, while design tools/platforms cover design, collaboration and version control.

E-knjiga se v vlogi predmeta prodaje prvič pojavi v devetdesetih letih prejšnjega stoletja, svoj razcvet pa doživlja po letu 2007. Za nastanek trga e-knjig obstaja nekaj pogojev: (1) kritična masa razpoložljivih vsebin, (2) tehnologija za produkcijo, prodajo in distribucijo e ter (3) obstoj primernih naprav za branje. Temeljna podobnost med natisnjeno knjigo in e-knjigo je, da gre pri obeh lahko za enako vsebino. Nekateri tipi vsebin so za obe obliki enako primerni, nekateri pa so bolj primerni za eno od obeh. Temeljna razlika med natisnjeno knjigo in e-knjigo je, da e-knjiga v fizičnem smislu ne obstaja. To dejstvo ima za posledico precejšnje razlike pri produkcijskih, prodajnih in cenovnih modelih. E-knjiga je možni substitut za natisnjeno knjigo. S svojim prihodom zato pomembno vpliva na razmere na trgu natisnjenih knjig. Za nekatere akterje na tem trgu predstavlja grožnjo, za druge priložnost. Kot priložnost jo je izkoristil predvsem Amazon, ki si je na največjem trgu e-knjig (ZDA in Velika Britanija, knjige v angleškem jeziku) pridobil prevladujoči tržni delež, ki ga izkorišča kot pogajalsko izhodišče. Kot priložnost so jo izkoristili tudi številni avtorji, ki so vsebine ponudili neposredno bralcem mimo običajnih omejitev, ki jih narekujejo založbe. V vlogi grožnje e-knjigo doživljajo predvsem lastniki klasičnih (»brick and mortar«) knjigarn, deloma pa tudi založniki, ki od Amazona in njegove prodaje ne želijo biti preveč odvisni. Razmere na večini pomembnih trgov e-knjig še vedno narekuje Amazon, dva od njegovih pomemnejših konkurentov, ki ga v marsičem posnemata, pa sta Barnes & Noble in Kobo. Prvi se od Amazona pomembno razlikuje po tem, da je lastnik največje verige klasičnih knjigarn v ZDA, drugi pa po tem, da prodaja samo digitalne vsebine in nič drugega. Njihovi poslovni modeli, ki jih predstavljamo, so si zato v nekaterih pogledih podobni, v nekaterih pa različni. Podobnosti izvirajo iz tehnologije, razlike pa iz različnih tržnih položajev. Založniki na večjih evropskih jezikovnih trgih (izjema je Velika Britanija), na katere želi Amazon z e-knjigo priti na podobno hiter in dominanten način, kot je to storil v ZDA, ne želijo ponoviti napake svojih ameriških kolegov, zato so pri množični vpeljavi e-knjižnih vsebin na trg nasploh, še posebej pa pri sodelovanju z Amazonom, precej bolj konservativni. As an object of sale, eBook first appears in the nineties and starts blooming after 2007. Certain conditions needed for the emergence of e-books exist: (1) a critical mass of available contents, (2) technology for the production, sale and distribution of eBooks, and (3) the existence of suitable reading devices. The fundamental similarity between a printed book and an eBook is that both can be of the same content. Some types of content are equally suitable for both forms some are better suited for eBook, others for printed book. However, the fundamental difference between printed book and eBook is that eBook doesn’t exist in physical sense. This fact has resulted in significant differences in production, sales and pricing models. E-book is a possible substitute for the printed book. Its arrival has therefore a significant impact on the market situation of printed books. It presents a threat for some market players and an opportunity for others. Amazon considers it a great opportunity, first in the largest eBook markets (United States and United Kingdom, books in English language), where Amazon gained dominant market share, now used as its negotiating position. E-book is also a great opportunity for significant number of authors, who are now in a position where they can offer their contents directly to readers without any limits dictated by publishers. However, e-Book can also represent a threat, especially for owners of traditional ("brick and mortar") bookstores and partly for those publishers, who don’t want to be too depended on Amazon sales. The situation in most important markets for e-books is still dictated by Amazon. Two of its significant competitors are Barnes & Noble and Kobo. Barnes & Noble differs significantly from Amazon in fact that it owns the largest chain of traditional bookstores in the U.S., while Kobo in fact that it sells only digital content. Their business models, which we present, are therefore in some ways similar and in some ways different. The similarities are in technology and differences are in market positions. Publishers in major European language markets (with the exception of United Kingdom) don’t want to repeat mistakes of their American counterparts. They want to prevent Amazon from becoming such a big player as it is in English language eBook market: they are generally conservative in mass introduction of eBook content to the European markets and especially careful in cooperation with Amazon.

Hitro spreminjajoče se poslovno okolje in konkurenčni boj od organizacij zahtevata nenehni razvoj in prilagajanje. Kot posledica le teh, se v poslovni praksi pojavljajo nove organizacijske oblike. Klasične, hierarhično urejene organizacije se umikajo sodobnim, plosko strukturiranim organizacijam, ki temeljijo na timskem delu in moderni informacijsko-telekomunikacijski tehnologiji. Virtualna organizacija, ena izmed sodobnih organizacijskih oblik, presega meje klasične organizacije. Zmanjšan je pomen fizične strukture, zato omogoča predvsem fleksibilnost in reaktivnost. Temelji pa predvsem na informacijski in telekomunikacijski tehnologiji kakor tudi na mobilnem delu. Virtualni timi predstavljajo novo stopnji razvoja timskega dela, saj omogočajo članom tima, z uporabo ustrezne tehnologije, vzajemno delovanje preko meja organizacije, časa in prostora. V praksi srečujemo le malo čistih virtualnih timov, vse več pa se pojavljajo konvencionalni timi, ki uporabljajo prvine virtualnosti. Ta podatek nakazuje trend razvoja timskega dela tudi v prihodnosti. Virtualna organizacija, ki pri svojem delovanju uporablja virtualne time, je le ena izmed možnih sodobnih organizacijskih oblik. Primer e-knjigarne prikazuje implementacijo koncepta virtualnosti, ki po našem mnenju predstavlja optimalno organizacijsko rešitev v danem primeru. Rapidly changing business environment and competitive fight of the organizations require ongoing development and adaptation. As a result, only those in business practice, there are new organizational forms. Classical, hierarchically arranged organizations are giving way to modern, flat structured organization based on teamwork and modern information and telecommunications technology. Virtual organization is one of the modern forms of organization, beyond the borders of classical organizations. It reduces the importance of physical structures, and primarily allows flexibility and reactivity. It is based primarily on information technology and telecommunications as well as mobile work. Virtual teams represent a new stage of development of teamwork, allowing members of the team, using appropriate technology, the interaction beyond the organization, time and space. In practice, we encounter little pure virtual teams, more and more are emerging conventional teams, using elements of Virtuality. This figure indicates the trend of development of teamwork in the future. Virtual organization, which in its operation using virtual teams, is only one possible modern organizational form. Example of the e-bookshop shows the implementation of the concept of Virtuality, which in our view, represents an optimal organizational solution in the given case.
