Abstract	Current web technologies have invaded people's lifeworld. With mobile devices information can be obtained independently from space and time and works as an omnipresent layer that augments people's constructions of the world permanently. Basing on implications of the current web on everyday action, this paper suggests necessary and recommended changes for geographical learning, focusing on the improvement of learning geography with the help of the web as well as on geography's contribution to enable students to a mature usage of web technologies in their everyday life when acting in spatial contexts. The result is a first draft of a potential research agenda, collecting an overview of questions to be worked on by geographical educational research for the praxis of geography learning in schools. This draft includes aspects such as enabling students to understand relational concepts of space and changing power relations in the classroom due to ubiquitous knowledge availability. (Orig.).
