Video is the new language of learning
	When questions pop up inside our head we no longer grab a heavy encyclopaedia volume, but we do a search on the Internet instead. People in different age groups approach this search in different ways: the younger ones no longer search for articles, but find answers directly on video hosting platforms like YouTube. Online video is becoming more important each year. In the VIDEO EDUCA Master Class at ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN 2012 a team of highly experienced broadcast and film professionals shared their expertise with delegates on how to make video in learning even more effective.

A world of difference: the demands of global diversity
	Any teacher knows that within a single class, student diversity can be vast. Globally, that picture is much the same and developers and policy makers must be equally attentive to the variety of needs presented by regional difference.

Collaborative learning and creative collaboration
	Collaboration in practice and content is increasingly accepted as a component of forward-looking educational thinking. In this session on the last day of ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN 2012, the presenters took a broad look at how the use of digital technologies supports creative collaboration, including examples which illustrate how content and collaborative practice change education for the Arts.

Distance learning and the virtual classroom: learning from what works
