Research output: Contribution to journal › Conference article › peer-review

Abstract

In this panel, six informal science projects discuss how instructional and technological design elements interact with the unique affordances and constraints of informal environments to impact learning. A central goal of the panel is to engage colleagues in examples that illustrate design decisions that inform research trajectories to move the field of CSCL forward in the design of informal learning environments.
