Through the case study of a newly developed common curriculum for the social sciences of a public university in Austria, this article discusses the interacting social agents, elements, and tools of a flexible and interactive technology-enhanced learning model. In doing so, the transnational, national, and local infrastructural conditions and challenges are critically examined from a socio-technological perspective. Selected evaluation and survey results highlight students\u2019 learning practices, usage behavior, and suggestions to improve their learning situation. The article concludes that student-centered learning models focusing on flexibility and interactivity can support the stable implementation of a common curriculum and its technology-enhanced learning infrastructure for the social sciences at public universities with high student numbers.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Keywords<\/span><br \/>\nHigher education &#8211; Learning &#8211; Infrastructure &#8211; Social sciences &#8211; Austria<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Budka, P., &amp; Schallert, C. 2009.
