Abstract
This paper describes and discusses 'Virtual Collaborative Learning' (VCL), a blended learning arrangement developed and used at the Chair of Information Management since 2001. Based on the experiences of the authors with the VCL setting and concentrating on international learning arrangements in higher education, this paper explores two possible ways of setting up VCL projects. Aiming at the further improvement of the framework model, it will be discusses how the determination of the factors 'roles', 'tasks' and 'communication tools' influence supports VCL aims best.
