Abstract: Learning effectively and efficiently with web resources demands distinct competencies in self-organization and self-motivation. According to the theory of Self-Regulated Learning, learning processes can be facilitated and supported by an effective goal-management. Corresponding to these theoretic principles, a goal-management tool has been implemented in an interdisciplinary project. It allows learners to set goals for internet research and assign relevant web resources to them. An evaluation study is presented that focuses on short-term learning episodes and selected results are shown that reinforce the benefits of our approach.
