2、ng new digital, virtual learning environments. These technologies are expected to become very important for the development of the institutions of higher education in the years to come in order that these will be able to service society in still more ways through co-operation, research and education
3、, including distance education and further education. An E-Learning Lab Northern Jutland has been established, which is a laboratory for the new media. The laboratory services both the university and other educational environments in the region. At the Surveying Programme of Aalborg University more
4、educational experiments have been carried through.IntroductionThe Internet development has created the possibility of a new communication and learning culture at the universities. Today the Internet has given the researchers and the students a direct, “under the fingertips” access to the total sum o

Operations, which were previously linked to use of the local department library or the university library, where scientific monographs and magazines were accessible, have now been supplemented with interactive search processes in, supervision in and participation
6、in the creation of new knowledge, which will be at the Internet the same moment it is created. In that sense we are beginning to view the Internet as the total sum of the knowledge of the whole world.An the single learning environments the departments, the educations, the researchers and the teacher

8、University is organized in projects, where the students work in groups. In their group rooms they have placed their network-connected computers, and in these working rooms they work with their projects and solve their tasks for the relevant courses.The goal of the universitys staking on this ICT dev
9、elopment is partly to develop the university pedagogy in general, but especially the university wishes to use the new technologies to increase the quality, create increased transparency of the knowledge resources of the university and finally to develop an improved basis for internationalisation of
10、the activities of the university.The ViLL project under The Digital Northern JutlandThe Digital Northern Jutland is a regional development programme for the region, in which Aalborg University is located. The university has been participating in this development programme with the ViLL project, the
11、superior aim of which is to contribute to the development of Northern Jutland as a learning region and as an active partner in the globalized network community by bringing into focus ICT-based methods and systems for promotion of lifelong learning.The ViLL project works analogously at two levels. Fi
12、rst by supporting concrete ICT implementations in ordinary educations and in further educations with a view to collect large-scale experience from coherent virtual learning environments and the virtual learning forms and systems represented in these experiments. Secondly the establishment of the E-L
13、earning Lab Northern Jutland, which in future will be extended and consolidated, if possible, as a combined research, development and knowledge centre around E-Learning in the North Jutland region. This will hopefully imply and this is already happening that Northern Jutland is placed on the maps of
14、 Denmark and the entire world, when it is about ICT-based learning. A strategic supplement to the problem-oriented learning model which is already the universitys hallmark and for which the university has obtained recognition.The bearing marks of the ViLL projectThe ViLL project under The Digital No
