This paper demonstrates that free software combined with design science research can create meaningful web tools aiming at solving organizational problems by sharing and co-creating relevant information. The core output of the research conducted consists of an educational website about sponsoring for an international student organization including instructive videos and interactive documents.

This paper demonstrates that free software combined with design science research can create meaningful web tools aiming at solving organizational problems by sharing and co-creating relevant information. The core output of the research conducted consists of an educational website about sponsoring for an international student organization including instructive videos and interactive documents. I developed a first prototype with freeware from Google, TechSmith and Apple, which was evaluated by 34 organization members from 22 different countries during an internal organizers' conference. I guided all conference participants through the website and asked them to suggest both technical and content-related modifications. Consequently 7 alterations were implemented. In a further step, 5 organization members evaluated the modified prototype for the second time using their own IT equipment. The second feedback resulted in several more changes. The final version constitutes an e- workshop that was positively evaluated on the criteria accessibility, fun and utility. As a by-product, this paper may serve members of student organizations as a guideline about how to create free, video-centered, educational websites.
