The papers in this session cover a range of pedagogical practices and innovation in informal learning environments, including issues of thriving for youth with learning disabilities, learner engagement with two interactives in a museum exhibit, museum educators’ practices for supporting failure-learning process, and youth’s co-construction of knowledge at a science museum exhibit.
