Abstract
Complex teaching and learning environments are a result of a number of factors, including the increasing complexity of entrepreneurial processes and the greater diversity of the workforce, especially in Europe. In meeting the new challenges associated with increasing complexity, linearized and chopped up pieces of curricula are less and less effective. New modes of teaching and learning that help to develop deep comprehension of the systems character of these complex and dynamic processes are necessary. This chapter reports on the construction, implementation and evaluation of a complex teaching-learning environment that uses advanced technology to support requirements in the German dual system of apprenticeship.
