Empirical material is presented from Gidder, a web-based learning environment with a mobile blogging feature. Through close examination of students¡¯ use of contextual resources and the writing and editing of blog entries, this study contributes a deeper understanding of the ways in which digital technologies may be designed for pedagogical use on museum field trips. %K museum learning %K field trip %K art %U http://ojs.statsbiblioteket.dk/index.php/mediekultur/article/view/2997
