Artifacts that are used as educational resources by teachers and students mediate between the world around the school, curriculum, and subject content on the one hand and students on the other. The relevance of studying the design of educational resources and their potential for fostering new insights, skills or competencies in students persists. However, we know that the relation between learning resource and student learning is by no means straightforward. The student is an actor with individual conditions, needs, interests and intentionality. The teacher mediates to what extent and how the intended design of the educational resource is enacted, redesigned or even abandoned in the classroom. Furthermore, it would be naïve to neglect the influence of actors and contextual factors on different levels in the context that surrounds the classroom. All actors participating in or influencing the use of the educational resource are worthy of scientific study. It follows, that the question of the outcome of learning resources is equally complicated. What kind of outcome are we interested in and outcome for whom? Are we interested in measuring student learning outcome, observe behavioral changes or map students’ or teachers’ perceived gains, motivation or critique? Under what circumstances can we generalize our findings from one specific educational resource design to other designs? Is the relevance of determining outcome of using a specific educational resource to make teaching more efficient, to show that innovative designs work, or do we contribute to theoretical development? It is obvious that the continuous study of learning materials from various perspectives remains essential for student learning and students’ development from a broader perspective, for promoting equal opportunity and for empowering teachers to support their students in their development. For those reasons, the significance of an international network of researchers dealing with the complex issues mentioned in this introduction can hardly be overestimated. These proceedings show the diversity in objects of study, methodologies and theoretical bases that also characterized the exchange of insights and research at the IARTEM19. 5 The process behind publication of the conference proceedings Everyone who presented a contribution to the Odense conference was invited to submit a paper for the proceedings. Alternatively, it was possible to submit more elaborated research papers for the IARTEM eJournal and the Danish journal Learning Tech. Manuscripts were to be written in English and not exceed 3.500 words. Emil Back Olsen (UCL) has been in charge of collecting the proposals and for the correspondence with authors. A review board of Danish researchers was assembled to ensure the academic quality of accepted papers in a peer review process and to suggest improvements to the authors. Trine Ellegaard (UCL) and Kamilla Bjørnskov Madsen (UCL) are responsible for the layout of the proceedings. Stig Toke Gissel (UCL) is the editor of the proceedings. Presentation of the proceedings 33 texts were accepted for publication in the 2019 IARTEM proceedings. The texts have been grouped in three main themes: Theme # 1: Educational resources as texts Subtheme 1A: Educational resources as texts: Analyses of design and learning potential. Subtheme 1B: Educational resources as texts: The educational resource as symptomatic of or embedded in structural, conceptual or ideological constructs. Studies under this theme either share an interest in investigating the design and learning potential of learning resources, or adopt a broader perspective by focusing on how structural, conceptual or ideological constructs are represented or appear in learning resources. Theme # 2: Studies of use Subtheme 2A: Students’ use and outcome of using educational resources. Subtheme 2B: Teachers’ selection and use of educational resources. Papers studying use of learning resources are focused on student use or outcome or teachers’ selection
