| Abstract | The progress of the information society is having a profound effect on the development of a new working and learning culture. Multimedia and telematics based tools and content services are widely considered as central ingredients for evolving new ways and means of working and learning. Teleworking is the key to a more flexible design of working time and places of work on the way to the modern information society with a knowledge oriented growth of economy. The rapid development of co-operative application software and electronic networking systems and the penetration of ISDNbased applications have demonstrated the enormous potential of technical facilities for new employment models. This makes the need for training and learning practically life-long. Learning is dependent on context and on appropriate and timely access to knowledge. Our project aims at creating a life-long learning environment especially for teleworkers. This paper will present the key challenges and success factors for the new ways of networked working and learning, based on modern information and communication technologies. We were evaluating the effectiveness of new learning models, analyzing the benefits and social impact of implementing teleworking and creating telelearning software prototypes based on innovative learning models. A pilot course developed on the basis of JaTeK is outlined in the paper. |
