The article describes an experiment which investigated the role played by an encyclopaedic CD-ROM in knowledge and language learning gains. It considers both quantitative and qualitative evidence (e.g. pre- and post-testing, and on-line audio-recorded data) to demonstrate that learning did take place and to suggest how it might have occurred.
