Abstract

Telecommunications, seen as access to information nodes and to remote resources, was at first an experience reserved for the few. Now it has become a very cheap resource available to all. In just a few years, it has led to the development of a planetary web, a distance communication highway connected by the famous Internet, "the net of the nets". Internet has changed the process of communication in these years, and it is usually now to buy the books in "virtual book stores" or to research information on physics and mathematics problems using the "net". The explosive growth of the Internet and the convergence of information and communications technology is opening up new educational opportunities. Internet can be used to modify the teaching methods and the process of learning that involves synchronous and asynchronous education. This work is devoted to present how to use the Web and its resources in the learning in a high school. I refer an experience in a technical institute in Italy with a sample of 15 students (age 16 - 17). The target was to stimulate the Web learning environment. For this reason the project has been divided in different phases: the knowledge of the Internet, the didactics using the Internet, the collaborative hypertext, and the communication with Internet.
