Abstract
On the basis of the “Proposal for the Pedagogical Role of the NRW-Educational server” learn:line was developed as a platform to the exchange of information, as well as mutual communication and co- operation. learn:line officialy started on February 17th, 1997 on the Web (http://www.learn-line.nrw.de).
Work areas relating to particular topics are characteristic of the NRW-Educational Server. They represent a kind of learning arrangement and provide an infrastructure for encouraging learning. Within a work area users will continually come across a selection of the following modules: media center, notice board, foyer, seminar room, conference room and work room.
Such work areas can be used to help the planning and analysis of the educational process, to increase co-operation between teachers and with others, to support existing and to try out new forms of further education and consultation, and in particular, to support learning processes — i.e. as a new medium for specialist and interdisciplinary learning.
The paper shows — in two examples — how, by using this new medium, a higher quality of learning and working in schools can be achieved — by teachers and pupils: ‘Learning with new media’ — a work area especially for teachers need and ‘Young People’ — a work area especially for pupils’ need
