Someone who worked out content and improved it repeatedly for a presentation in an audio file ideally knows what he or she is talking about and has internalised the learning topics.

C D December 4th, 2008 Staatliches Berufskolleg Glas ● Keramik ● Gestaltung des Landes NRW ● Rheinbach To my mind, working with the online environment and with multimedia tools is very efficient.

Learning? Teachers have to enjoy learning themselves, e.g. new areas of teaching, and experimenting with media technically and didactically. Teachers need computer and Internet access.
