==Mission and Objectives==
The basic idea of the project was that a successful knowledge acquisition with dynamic visualizations is a resource intensive process which requires simultaneous and optimized availability of different learning resources. This particularly comprises different processing capabilities of the cognitive system, functionalities of the applied computer technology and didactically substantiated contents and representations. Accordingly, the instructional potential of dynamic visualizations can only effectively evolve if these different learning resources are available in a coordinated way for a concrete knowledge acquisition scenario. This hypothesis was investigated in formal learning settings (e.g. school, university) as well as in informal learning settings (e.g. aquarium, diving excursion) for a natural sciences domain, the locomotion of fish<ref>http://www.iwm-kmrc.de/www/en/projekte/projekt.html?dispname=Resource-Adaptive+Design+of+Visualizations+in+the+Natural%0ASciences&name=NaturwissenschaftlicheVisualisierung</ref>.

==Cyprus contributions==
The Cypriot team contributed in three aspects to the project:
# Providing scenarios for contextual and situated mobile learning;
# Development and testing of [[Mental Attributes Profiling System|MAPS]];
# Use of [[Structured Dialogic Design Process]] to explore the characteristics of a new science of education.
