The school of the future of the university of são paulo: 1989-1999 what was learned and what wasn\'t

Özet

\r\n The "School of the Future" of the University of São Paulo, Brazil's largest and most productive center of higher education, is an interdisciplinary laboratory investigating the question of how the new communications technologies can improve learning at all educational levels. Begun in 1989 as a departmental laboratory in the School of Communications and Arts, its growth and increasingly interdisciplinary nature took it out of that home in 1993 and placed it under the aegis of the Office of the Dean of Research, where it continues to flourish, financially self-sustaining and independent of the University budget, but with strong encouragement and guidance from the central administration.\r\n
