  • Abstract
    The results of the evaluation of a web 2.0 platform promoting interactive learning for technical vocational training are presented. The focus of the paper lies on an analysis of the user interests in that particular context. It was found that despite the industrial-technical trainees´ high affinity with computers and multimedia, they prefer a rather passive (traditional) use of the internet and its elements.
