The paper focuses on the question «What do we understand by media-related learning?» and draws on a relational concept of learning, based on the results of an ethnographic research project in which fab labs and makerspaces were explored in a participatory observation. In the context of the research project, the observed events were examined using a framework of practice- and discourse theory, whereby the focus was on the role of artifacts. Starting from the investigation of material-discursive practice, learning with media in this approach is understood as a performative and relational process involving heterogeneous (human and non-human) entities. The article presents key points of the research project as well as selected results and discusses them against the background of post-anthropocentric learning theories.
