Abstract

MekoLLi is a scholarly attempt to face the constantly changing varieties and challenges of teaching and learning with new media. Prospective teachers should get familiar with new ways of teaching and learning which are offered by multimedia learning environments. The multimedia learning environment is based on self guided, collaborative and case-based learning. The online-application’s underlying constructivist framework mirrors the shift from traditional patterns of learning and teaching to new ways of learning and teaching with e-learning tools in an university context. Students are encouraged to develop learning strategies and individual learning routes by exploring five units: Multimedia Learning Environments: Learning by Approaching Problems (unit 1), New Roles of the Instructor and Learner: Reconsider Traditional Role-Patterns (unit 2, unit 3), New Digital Technologies: Approaching the Possibilities of New Media (unit 4), Online Pool for Current E-Learning Applications (unit 5).
