Currently, learning platforms are being implemented in the Danish elementary schools as a part of a national initiative. These platforms have implications for teachers work and for communication and collaboration.

This paper investigates how the schools relate to the platforms and their implementation as well as the challenges and possibilities that emerge in this process. The paper is based on data from the research project entitled “Use of digital learning platforms and teaching materials” where we, through a pedagogical, technological and organizational focus have investigated 15 schools’ implementation of digital learning platforms from winter 2016 to spring 2017. In the paper, we present central findings from the project through two cases that each illustrate important challenges that requires attention.
