Abstract :
A growing number of those millions of Internet users that are down to the present day excessively using Weblogs to reflect on their experiences, recommendations and thoughts in a private or business context, now increasingly employ this medium to bring the teaching- and learning- environment to a new level. The use case about the D-School-Blog - a collaborative working and communication platform to support the innovative process of Design Thinking (DT) - presented in this paper, proves the applicability of Weblogs in this particular environment.
