The Technology Enhanced Textbook (TET) as mobile, touch-sensitive interactive textbook, supports the prospective user with
didactic-technological enhancements of reality and through novel tools for individual knowledge construction and cooperative
learning.
Everyday experiences of the TET-users are directly linked to the possibility to actively conduct experiments. Additionally,
one can explore real-life scientific research laboratories interactively. This way the long demanded moderate-constructivist
direction of education and learning processes will finally be implemented.
Initial demonstrations can be tested under "tetfolio.de".

The narrowed scope of action when learning with a textbook, which consists of reading and taking notes, is overcome by TET.
TET is the first project in the history of media education that allows a realistic, naturalistic active and communicative
interaction with (natural) phenomena and experiments. In a 3-year project - funded by the BMBF - we validate the innovation
potential of our scientific research, with the aim to develop applications for schools, colleges, educational trainings,
museums, radio and television.
