Designing digital learning environments [PDF]

, 2001
In this paper an overview is given of current developments in the Netherlands. The second part starts with some educational fundaments for Digital Learning Environments (DLE’s). The elements of DLE’s are described by the different interactions and communications between the student and participants and materials in learning environments.
