Abstract :
This paper outlines the components of the project WELCOME (Wireless E-Learning and Communication Environment) at the University of Regensburg. We argue that mobile/electronic education should not attempt to replace traditional education with tutors and instructors but support both student and teacher by providing services that facilitate teaching, learning and education-related administrative tasks. The basic approach is integrative, combining a variety of devices (mobile and nonmobile) via a variety of transmitting techniques (wired and wireless).
