Nowadays education has to satisfy different requirements regarding the variety of demands of industry but also pedagogical. The students have to learn as well as apply different skills. Another important part is deep understanding of the environment. It is not enough to know how to apply a formula they should also be able to connect that formula to the mathematical background to enable connecting different topics. They should be able to apply the learnt methods in real-life scenarios. This all should be done in a minimum of time during the course. The lectures are forced to accomplish the impossible. Therefore universities are encouraged to use online environment to support their courses to enable individual learning. Using platforms and other e-tools the learning process can be translocated to leisure time. This also enables students to learn in their own speed and to their own conditions. In this paper three different e-learning environments will be presented and their usage and development at the TU Wien will be presented.
