Summary:
This paper deals with a survey on three case studies of various arrangements for intercultural learning via the Internet in Europe. On the one hand, the empirical research is based on theoretical reflections about intercultural competence needed in a multicultural society, and on the other hand, it is grounded in the pedagogical discussion of media competence. The main goal of the research is to determine the sustainability of Internet-based learning arrangements and a virtual mobility for campus-based students. (Contains 14 references.) (Author)
