Abstract :
In this contribution the background, the present state and the visions of the project of the SCHOLA LUDUS Virtual Science Centre (SLVSC) is presented including the educational approach and front-end dynamic structure of the SLVSC system. The goal of the SLVSC project is to set up an open, but controlled platform for permanent science popularization and enhancement of general science culture via active non-formal learning that will be both, attractive at present and meet the learning needs of tomorrow. The system will be filled by tricky educational entities with indirect learning scaffold, supporting not consumption of knowledge but knowledge creation, with emphasis on balanced understanding between real, thought and virtual matter.
