Global E-Learning Tendencies And Possibilities Of Using The Internet For Vocational And Educational Training, Armin Von Gruchalla, Dipl.-Ing. Frank Stauch

International Vocational Education and Training Association (IVETA) Conference

The Virtual Training Center (VTC) integrates the ideas of media-based learning environments into the idea of the learning platform which has increasingly influenced theoretical discussions at international congresses (e.g. Learntec 2000, Karlsruhe, see www.learntec.de). The VTC simulates a training center in the web and serves as a platform of internet or intranet based courses and self-learning media. Seminars and workshops can be held, media and documents can be worked on and administered and know-how can be exchanged. The basic idea of the VTC is to create a web-based infrastructure which shelters all possibilities of web-based teaching, learning and training.
