Opis

Exploring the ways in which new technologies are shaping the lives and experiences of young children, this book challenges expectations and assertions about digital childhoods and provides research evidence and theoretical frameworks from which to make sense of children's learning, to understand family practices with new technologies at home and practices with digital resources in early years educational settings. It will contribute to the development of practice, extend theoretical perspectives to encompass the impact of living in a digital age and consider the ways in which values and beliefs are shaped by the use of new technologies.
