In diesem Buch berichte ich von einem komparativen Experiment zur Lernmate rialkonstruktion, das ich an Schulen in den Kreisen Konstanz, Paderborn und Detmold durchfUhren konnte. Ohne die geduldige, manchmal auch begei sterte und begeisternde Mitarbeit der SchUler, die UnterstUtzung ihrer Leh rer und das Verstandnis der Schulleiter der Realschulen in Konstanz, Radolf zell, Singen, Gottmadingen, SchloB Neuhaus und Detmold ware diese Arbeit unmoglich gewesen. Profitiert habe ich bei meinem Vorhaben auch von Anregungen, Ratschlagen und Kritik von Freunden und Kollegen, vor allem von Annelie...
