Additionally, CBL contains features of experiential and project-based learning approaches.<br/> CBL is supported by the provision of Digital Experimentation Toolkits (DExTs) which comprise materials, initial instructions, references to web resources and specific software tools. Within the COLDEX project, a number of remote sites which generate data for analysis in such a DExT scenario is established. Among these is an observatory with a semi-professional telescope and a network of seismic measurement stations in Chile. Technological challenges lie in the ease of use in accessing these data and in communicating the learners' requests and specifications to the remote sites. Within this article we describe several classroom scenarios for the usage of DexTs in schools. Examples are the calculation of the epicentre of an earthquake, the calculation of lunar heights and the definition of strategies for navigation in a maze.
