Opis

Datafied Childhoods examines the multiple ways in which datafication, algorithms, and artificial intelligence (AI) transform the contexts for children: at home, school, and in peer and parent-child relationships. The COVID-19 pandemic provides an important moment for reimagining how data are repurposed for the social good and best interests of children.

Recenzje

"What is it like to grow up with your every action tracked, analysed and potentially monetised? Today's children-the guinea pigs of the digital age-have no choice but to find out for themselves. But it is the wider economic and political interests of society that drive the processes of mediatization and datafication analysed in this ambitious and insightful book. Its conclusions should concern us all." -Sonia Livingstone, London School of Economics; Author of Parenting for a Digital Future
