Abstract (2. Language): 
This study presents first findings about the development of an inquiry-based approach in pre-service teacher training. After reports of students who felt ill equipped to teach adequately about biodiversity, an inquiry-based learning course about biodiversity was created, using new technologies and an autonomous and collaborative learning environment. Compared to the traditional university course, research showed advantages in motivational and cognitive areas within the students tested.
