OMV CD-ROM

Teaching material 2004

The starting point for the CD-ROM project was the discrepancy between existing teaching options and the nature of the content to be taught in schools. By 2004, technical equipment used in Austrian schools had steadily improved ("laptop classes"), but high-grade content was practically non-existent. School resources dealing with mineral oil and natural gas were obsolete. A CD-ROM was devised to supply information in a contemporary form.
