Also “schöne grüße aus österreich” and very much thanks for your statement.

You are defenitely right. My opinion is that good content is the precondition for learning. But afterwards every learning theory can be useful in certain situations. The teacher is in centre of the learning process, he/she gives the structure or the overwiew, he/she helps. But in which way? I argue in his/her best way.

The situation right now on the eLearning market is that it becomes more and more possible to fullfill all teaching ways. Till now we can support teaching even in a constructivistic way, with all the new tools – fantastic, if you want to hear my opinion.

Thank you for the comment and linkback. Please forgive me for responding in English. I am very out of practice in German, and I’m positive you read English much better than I write German.

I completely agree with you that we can’t look at content alone and that teaching and learning are also social processes. Do I understand you correctly that you see quality content as the foundation, but that multiple learning theories should be used as appropriate?

Do you think that some learning theories are more appropriate in certain situations than in others? If so, how do you determine which theory is most suitable?

Schöne Grüße aus Amerika,
