From the Web site / du site W3: "In the last few years there has been massive growth in the use of digital technologies for learning in museums, science centres and galleries - both onsite in the form of digital interactives, and online via the creation of ever-more popular websites.

These developments, both within the walls of the institution and outside them, provide a number of challenges for educators and curators, at the heart of which lie the questions - what is distinctive about learning in museums, science centres and galleries, and how might this change or evolve through the increasing use of digital technologies?"
